Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5If the meeting is only open to members of the IAWM then its hardly an open meeting. The IAWM will never learn anything if they persist in talking only to themselves. This dialogue of the deaf is going nowhere.
The meeting is open to members and non-members alike. Non-members in attendance will not be under any obligation to become mebers either. Contrary to some rumours, some of us in the iawm are learning from past mistakes.
I went on a couple of demos then got bored and slunk away. What's left of the movement these days?
Gotta say, I've never, ever come across such suspicion about a campaign group as that surrounding the IAWM. And I'm not just talking about stuff posted on indymedia. If I were in the IAWM I'd seriously consider disbanding, getting rid of the name and starting all over again at an inclusive meeting where all elements participated in forming a new campaign with a different name.
Just a suggestion.
Apologies when I said "The Irish Anti-War Movement" I meant All the Irish Anti-War Movement not just IAWM members however if anyone wants to join/renew their membership then they can do so.
To the person who has gotten bored with marches there are other things you can do. I would like to hear your opinion on other activities.
Again sorry for my mistake.
