3) MARCH 3: AFGHANISTAN PUBLIC MEETING IN PARLIAMENT

As popular uprisings continue against some of the most hated
British backed despots and dictators, the horror of Britain's
current foreign policy in Afghanistan is barely reported.

Heavy fighting is taking place in a number of regions of
Afghanistan. Just yesterday there were two reports of massacres
of civilians in the Eastern part of the country.

The provincial governor of Kunar province reports 63 civilians
were killed in a NATO airstrike and the US military themselves
have admitted killing unknown numbers of civilians in a an air
attack in Nangarhar province two days ago. The overall the level
of violence is higher than at any time since 2001.

The parliamentary group of MPs campaigning for withdrawal from
Afghanistan has organised a meeting  in parliament for Thursday 3
March.
