DESCRIPTION:Four years after becoming independent, East Timor is again in the 
 headlines. As violent conflict escalated, the government called in foreign 
 troops.\n\nIs the UN's "poster child" becoming a failed state?  Is the 
 poorest country in Asia losing independence, democracy and peace that its 
 people achieved through decades of costly struggle?\n\nThe situation is 
 complex -- massive poverty and unemployment, historical memories and 
 impunity, military schisms, governance failures, post-traumatic stress, 
 misdirected international "aid" and misguided UN decisions all play a role. 
  But it was predictable, and it can be resolved.\n\nPlease join us for a 
 discussion of what's happening in East Timor, and what we can do about it. 
 All proceeds raised from this event will go to grassroots organizations in 
 East Timor.\n\nIlana Scherl, Education Coordinator in East Timor for 
 international NGO from 2002-2004\nPamela Sexton, lived and worked in East 
 Timor from 2000-2002, ETAN activist\nBen Terrall, ETAN Bay Area Coordinator 
 among other notables\n\n
