For the 18th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, this webinar offers an opportunity to analyze Round 2 of the reconstituted “war on terror” which began following the 9/11 attacks. What started as an invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001 has developed into a massive network of counter-terror operations in more than 70 countries. Trillions of dollars and innumerable lost and disrupted lives later – 1) what do we have to show it; 2) where are we heading; and 3) where we should be heading? Our panelists will consider these critically important questions and more.

Ajamu Baraka will speak on the state of the U.S. Empire.

Howie Hawkins will suggest steps for reducing the role of militarism in US foreign policy.

Madelyn Hoffman will bring us up-to-date on the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Libya and discuss how we might go about getting out of these conflicts.

Michael McPhearson will describe what these wars are like on the ground.

Cindy Sheehan will update us on the question she has been asking since her son was killed in Iraq: "What noble cause?"

Howard Switzer will explain the financial incentives inherent in the post-9/11 wars.

A question and answer period will follow the presentations.

The forum will be moderated by Ryan Swan, a California member of the GPUS Peace Action Committee.
