Iraq War Forums

Several southeastern Pennsylvania Democracy for America chapters have coordinated to host three forums on the Iraq war. Featured speakers are Scott Ritter and Ray McGovern. Kudos to Jeanne Doyle whose idea this was and who did most of the work setting up the dates and arranging for the speakers. Here is the information:

If you live in southeastern PA, be sure to attend one of the Scott
Ritter/Ray McGovern Forums:

I know you and your friends still have nagging questions about how we
became embroiled in this contest of atrocities that our occupation of
Iraq has become. The conflicting positions taken by various factions
inside and outside the US have generated confusion and malaise.

Here is your chance to get all your questions answered by two people
that have been very close to the situation for years.

was right." - Seymour Hersh
