Title A name given to the resource Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails Description An account of the resource The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. I would support this.  In fact, I wonder if we could put this on in conjunction with some other resources who could discuss Iraq issues and perhaps Afghan women's issues... maybe take the opportunity to discuss "the Broadening War."  A 45 minute opportunity is good, and maybe an afternoon or evening with a somewhat broader program would be even better! The following from The Observer's 9/30 article on "infinite War" bears thinking about: "The plans put before the President during the past few days involve expanding the war beyond Afghanistan to include similar incursions by special ops forces - followed by air strikes by the bombers they would guide - into Iraq, Syria and the Beqaa Valley area of Lebanon, where the Syrian-backed Hizbollah (Party of God) fighters that harass Israel are based. In Iraq, any site suspected of being a chemical weapons facility or proliferation plant of any threatening kind would be bombed, in an escalation of the almost weekly current harassment of Iraqi installations by British and US fighter jets. In Syria and Lebanon, as in Afghanistan, special ops would guide air strikes, and also be called on to mount guerrilla-style raids on training camps and to carry out assassinations. While a presidential executive order - which Bush is under pressure to revoke - bans overseas assassinations, the Pentagon points out that the US can act as it pleases in self-defence. If action in Lebanon led to an Israeli reinvasion of the southern part of the country, it would be supported by the US. Asked whether the Hamas organisation on the West Bank and in Gaza would be too controversial for inclusion among possible targets, one source said: 'never say never'." -x >--- Original Message --- >From: "x" <x> >To: x, x >Date: 10/22/01 12:28:59 PM > >Dear Action and Coordination committees, > >The Palestine Right to Return Coalition would like to offer the MAPC members >a teach-in on the Palestine/Israel conflict.
