A palestinian ISM Organiser and an Israeli Refusenik speak on their experiences

On Friday, 5th November, at 8 p.m. in the Joyce Room of the Metropole Hotel, Mc Curtain St., Cork, a Palestinian organiser for the ISM and an Israeli Anarchist Refusenik will share the platform at a public meeting, and will speak of their experiences as people working for peace and justice in the Middle East, and how violence has damaged both Israeli and Palestinian lives and societies. This public meeting is part of a tour of Ireland and the rest of Europe by these speakers in order to show Europeans that there are more viewpoints on the ground in the Middle East and more possibilities for dialogue, mutual understanding, and mutually respective solutions than the mainstream media would have us in Europe believe. The Cork engagement is hosted by Cork Grassroots Network and the Cork branch of the Workers' Solidarity Movement.
