Traprock Peace Center has just published to the internet its comprehensive coverage (audio, photos and video) of the London International Peace Conference, held on December 10, 2005.

1400 conference delegates called for worldwide antiwar demonstrations on March 18 and 19, 2006 to demand an immediate end to the war and occupation of Iraq. The conference also called for the release of the Christian Peace Makers team members who were kidnapped in Iraq. The conference was organized by the Stop the War Coalition (UK).

Several Iraqis spoke in Arabic. We tried recording the translations of their talks to no avail. Ayatollah Khalisi of the Iraqi National Foundation Congress, Hassan Juma, President of the Southern Iraqi Oil Workers' Union, and Hanna Abrahim of the Iraq organization Free Will spoke. We link to reports that summarize their comments. The British government refused to allow entry to a delegate from Iraq, the al Sadr representative, Hassan al Zargani. We do not have audio of a few other speakers for technical reasons.

There are photo albums of each of the above sessions along with albums of the groups tabling at the conference and photos of people meeting and reconnecting at this historic conference. There are special photos of Cindy Sheehan, George Galloway, Jeremy Corbyn, the students, and many others,
