Debating the peace movement

I don't know when this will be broadcast, but I'm due to have a debate with Tony Benn tomorrow evening about the achievements of the peace movement. Our hosts are Press TV, the Iranian state-run English-language broadcaster. So far as I'm aware, nothing I say on these programmes is edited, so I'm glad to take part.

Incidentally, in his latest volume of Diaries (in his entry for 4 November 2005), Mr Benn remarks of the 9/11 truth campaigners (emphasis added): "Probably, in their heart of hearts, most people think the attack was genuine, but I don't rule anything out."

My readers will recall that Mr Benn is a former long-serving Cabinet minister, was twice a candidate for the Labour leadership, and was once almost a victorious candidate for Labour's deputy leadership.

Press TV. Is that the organisation that produced that anti-Israel doc. recently?
