Join World BEYOND War for this online event, co-hosted with Youri Smouter, as we discuss the urgent need to end the Western/Gulf War on Syria. In conversation with Rick Sterling and Alfred De Zayas, we’ll talk about what the anti-imperialist/peace movement must understand about the ongoing situation in Syria, why we must be opposed to all forms of militarism and imperialism in Syria, and what we can do to end the suffering.
