BRussells Tribunal – Questioning the New Imperial World Order

Linked on our blogs with Failure of the Globalization Model: The Arab Spring of Democracy.

The BRussells Tribunal are intellectuals, artists and activists who denounce the logic of permanent war promoted by the American government and its allies, affecting for the time being particularly one region in the world: the Middle East.

It tries to be a bridge between the intellectual resistance in the Arab World and the Western peace movements …(Homepage) …
