What the Iraqis Want

Film viewing and discussion, Sunday October 15, 7-9 pm, The Playhouse, 200 N. Madison, Bainbridge Island.

Join Dal LaMagna, Executive Producer of the recently released documentary Iraq for Sale for a viewing of this powerful film and a discussion of his meeting with Iraqi leaders.

On Aug 2-3 2006, Dal was a member of a US Peace Delegation that went to Jordan and met with members of the Iraqi parliament, sheiks and victims of torture. The "Iraq Reconciliation Plan" linked to below was the result of that meeting.

The Reconciliation Plan documents how the Iraqis, in their own words, propose to solve their country's crisis, captured via extensive interviews with the Iraqi participants.

Be part of a discussion about what the war means to the Iraqi people and what they want for their country.

"We are waiting for the U.S. to end this war and pull out the troops. This should be based on morals and ethics and international law." Dr. Ali Temini, Iraqi delegate.

Free and open to the public; for additional information, please call (206) 427-1099.
