Stop the War Coalition

The Stop the War Coalition (StWC; informally just Stop the War) is a British group established on 21 September 2001 to campaign against what it believes are unjust wars.
The coalition has opposed the wars that are part of the so-called "War on Terror" of the Western nations. It has campaigned against the war in Afghanistan and the Iraq War. The demonstration against the latter on 15 February 2003, which it organised in association with Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) and the Muslim Association of Britain (MAB), is claimed to be the largest public demonstration in British history.〔('Million' march against Iraq war ), BBC, 16 February 2003〕
==Formation==
The impetus to form the Stop the War Coalition came following the 11 September 2001 attacks in the United States. The Coalition was launched at a public meeting of over 2,000 people at Friends House in London,〔("Arguments against the warmongers" ), ''Socialist Worker'', 13 September 2001〕 which was chaired by Lindsey German, then active in the Socialist Workers Party. German argued that the action in Afghanistan, then threatened unless the Taliban government extradited Osama bin Laden, would lead to that country's "destruction", and "possibly a wider conflagration in the Indian subcontinent, Iran and the Middle East." Other speakers at the meeting included Jeremy Corbyn (Labour Member of Parliament (MP) for Islington North), and Bruce Kent (of CND).
German became Convenor of the Coalition and a meeting on 28 October settled the Coalition's official aims. This meeting also elected a Steering Committee which consisted of a spectrum of left-wingers including representatives of ''Labour Left Briefing'' and the Communist Party of Britain. The Communist Party of Great Britain (Provisional Central Committee) and Alliance for Workers' Liberty〔Tina Becker
("Building for 18 November" ), ''Weekly Worker'', 1 November 2001〕 failed to get elected, although both became members of the Coalition and participated in its activities.
