WHAT: The editor of the journal International

Socialist Review (www.isreview.org) will be speaking

on the topic: Resiting Empire -- Perspectives on the

Occupation of Iraq

WHEN: Saturday, December 6, 3pm

WHERE: United Teachers of Los Angeles (UTLA) Hall,

Auditorium, 3303 Wilshire Blvd., two blocks west of

Vermont Ave. Free parking is available behind the UTLA

building on Berendo Street.

Sponsored by: The LA branch of the International

Socialist Organization

Endorsed By: UTLA Human Rights Committee,

American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, LA\/OC

WHY: The US occupation of Iraq gets bloodier every

week. Guerilla resistance has inflicted dozens of

casualties in the last month. The US military has

renewed its “shock and awe” campaign, using 2,000

pound bombs to intimidate the Iraqi people. All of

this has produced a political crisis for the Bush

Administration’s plans in the Middle East.

Join in a discussion with Ahmed Shawki, editor of the

ISR, about empire and resistance in the Persian Gulf

and Middle East today.
