Galloway: Why we must oppose Western intervention in Syria
Speaking at a Respect Foundation public meeting at SOAS on 12 February George Galloway explained why we must oppose imperialist intervention in Syria. His speech can be watched in the videos below.

No imperialist intervention in Syria
By Jane West
