A Summer Not to Forget:

This powerful film shows what happened: as Israeli rockets and bombs relentlessly pounded Lebanon: more than 1,200 killed and 4,000 wounded, more than 1 million displaced, 15,000 homes damaged, 15,000 tons of oil ruining 50 miles of Mediterranean coast; bridges, businesses, etc., a nation and a people devastated.

Dr. Zeina Zaatari, who was in Lebanon last summer, will give an update on the situation in Lebanon.

Ms Lena Meari will talk about Palestine, that beleaguered piece of the earth suffering 60 years of displacement and 40 years of ever-more brutal Israeli occupation.

You Spoke – We Listened!

We’ve responded to feedback we received regarding the movie we chose for our November meeting. Since most people have already seen "An Inconvenient Truth" (and Al Gore has not yet thrown his hat into the Presidential race), we’ve decided to show another film this month. A great film recently became available, and so we’re going to take this opportunity to bring you No End In Sight!

Please RSVP Here: http://www.dfalink.com/event.php?id=24756

No End In Sight, winner of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival Special Jury Prize: Documentary, has received incredible reviews. Time Magazine has called the film "Without a doubt the most important film you are likely to see this year," and it is possibly the best reviewed film of the entire year, as you can see from the selection of critic quotes below.

Join us this Wednesday to see for yourself - This film makes a case against Bush’s Iraq policy, even by some of those who helped put those policies into place.

We’ll provide the popcorn and sodas (and coffee, tea and snacks); you provide opinions and discussion!

When: Wednesday, Nov. 7th, 7:00 - 9:00 PM
