Portsmouth,Tom Jackson presents "From Iraq to Gaza"

From Iraq to Gaza:
How Sanctions and Sieges Serve as Silent Weapons of Mass Destruction
A presentation and video excerpts with filmmaker Tom Jackson 



Tom was in Gaza November 28, 2009 to January 6,
2010 teaching and filming. He brings us his personal
witness of living conditions in
Gaza under the current
siege and footage of his interviews. This is a continuation of the
work Tom began in summer 2000 when he went to
Iraq.
Similar to
Gaza today, the Iraqi people were beaten down from bombings of their infrastructure and comprehensive economic
sanctions. Out of that came his film "Greetings from
Missile Street."


Free and open to the public.
