Anti-war film night in Glasgow

Glasgow Autonomous Project | 18.09.2003 17:20 | Anti-militarism

Anti-war film night at the Halt Bar, Woodlands Rd, Glasgow.
23 September 8:00 pm

An evening of anti-war films, and a planning meeting for the September 27th demo in Edinburgh.

*End the occupation of Iraq*
*Justice for Palestine*

Organised by the Glasgow Autonomous Project: a group of anarchists and libertarians, peace activists and others based in and around Glasgow. We are currently organising events with the ultimate aim of establishing an anarchist/autonomous centre. The centre will be a base for radical, grass-roots and working-class political activity in Glasgow and will be run as a co-operative.

The Centre's doors will be open to hold meetings of likeminded groups from the surrounding area and we will also be attempting to run a bookshop, cafe or gig venue, all with the aim of giving Glasgow an alternative cultural space free from the choking bureaucracy of party politics.

John Pilger: Palestine is Still the Issue

Twenty-five years since Pilger made a film for ITV with the same title, he conducts a series of remarkable interviews with Palestinians and a group of Israelis who support them, 'united by their courage and their yearning to be free'. The father of a 14-year-old Israeli girl killed by a suicide bomber talks movingly about 'the truth that both my daughter and her killer were victims'. A soldier who has refused to serve in the Occupied Territories challenges his government to hear its critics without calling them anti-Semitic. Shot on the West Bank, Gaza and in Israel.


Hidden Wars of Desert Storm

"Hidden Wars of Desert Storm" looks at the origins of the Gulf War crisis and challenges the official Western "party-line" view of a spontaneous crusade for "Freedom & Democracy".

Instead, the documentary exposes the White House and US State Department's hidden agenda in the Gulf as well as the Pentagon's use of radioactive ammunitions made of uranium 238

"Hidden Wars" emerges as an uncommonly sober, well researched film of its type." - The New York Times
