If you want a snapshot of how the Blob works, look no further than David Miliband. Once a Labour Minister, now paid ?1m a year running a 'charity' that receives millions from the UK Government. Nice work if you can get it.

The Franco-German proposals explicitly call for the maintainance of sanctions amongst other measures. Therefore they shouldn't be supported by the anti war movement
they are in the current anti-War coalition.
They are facing diplomatic pressure.
New York City has suggested demonstrations of support at both consuls of Frnace and Germany this week as a million demonstrators prepare to express the global mandate against this war at the assembly building of the U.N.
Yeah MO'B. We should wait for the revolution and that will stop the war. In the meantime the rest of the world will try and avert human deaths.
"In the meantime the rest of the world will try and avert human deaths."
Gee! How will you this? A pact with the Devil? Find the fountain of Eternal Youth?
Perhaps you mean avert human deaths due to War in Iraq? Be clear!
In any case M o'B is correct, the sanctions would remain & so would the ongoing US & Brit bombing. Thousands of Iraqis would continue to die every month!
Graham, the so called U.N. is a tool of the imperialist powers. It is used only when it is in their interests to do so. During the East Timor genocide, the U.N. resolutions re Indonesian aggression were simply ignored. Not exactly surprising given the fact that the backers of the Surharto invasion were the very same powers who have “neglected” to enforce U.N. resolutions on Palestine but who are extremely concerned about resolutions on Iraq. Why do you think that is? The differences between U.S. imperialism and it’s junior partners are simply tactical, they all support the continuation of sanctions which have cost enough lives already, they are all just concerned about getting their share of the natural resource of Iraq. I am staggered that the Green Party would even consider supporting such a “proposal”. Well, I am almost staggered, but then I think of Joscha Fischer of Belgrade fame.
today the students of two universities held occupational exercisesin teh run up to the global day of anti War action Feb 15.
These action were held at Barcelona and NYC.
IN both students discussed the issues ouched upon above and also were invited to address the need for more inforamtion on the Western Alliance´s relationship to all states in the Iraqi region.
Turkey, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Kuwait.
This war was never going to be about just Saddam.

The UN is the best we have.
We shall miss it if it goes.
shall we not? Where as I presume we may soldier on without NATO.
Dave D is totally out of touch with Irish people, neutrality touches a chord with most Irish people. That is why FF and FG have not been able get rid of it up to now. Most Irish people are are neither anti war or pro war, but they are pro neutrality. So stop taking the line from London and give up your aul sins (trotskism)
