Iraq: Stay until we fix it, or get out immediately?

Posted by Mike Gilbert @ 11:53:06 am

A pair of local scholars will debate that question 7 p.m. Friday May 23 at King's Books, 213 St. Helens Ave. in Tacoma. Arguing the former will be Floyd "Chip" Churchill, a retired Army officer, University of Washington lecturer and history and current issues teacher at Pierce College. Arguing the latter will be Steve Niva, International Politics and Middle East Studies professor at the Evergreen State College.

Each guy gets 20 minutes to make his point, and 10 minutes for rebuttal, and then they'll do a one-hour discussion with the audience. It's free and open to the public. See more here.
