As the U.S. prepares to wind down its occupation of Afghanistan, the U.S. relationship with Pakistan is moving central to the agenda. But how much do U.S. peace activists really know about Pakistan, its problems and the long history of U.S. interference there?

This premier event will bring about the meeting of our communities to discuss realistic, peaceful solutions to the challenges facing the people of the U.S. & Pakistan. We will correct official and unofficial misinformation. International activists will humanize the situation and work harder to publicly reveal the truth and make our elected officials responsible for their policies!
