** NEXT BI-MONTHLY PUBLIC FORUM – CLASS **

'Is Iran Next? Why Iran is Targeted for the Next Imperialist Aggression'

Even as the US faces a quagmire in its wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the US campaign and threat of attack against Iran is escalating. On July 13th, a Pentagon official announced that the US was giving the 'amber light' to Israel to prepare for an invasion of Iran. This latest threat comes alongside sanctions by the UN Security Council and the European Union which are aimed at strangling Iranian people in preparation for an attack, as well as a massive military buildup of US military forces in the Persian Gulf. Join MAWO in our bi-monthly forum-class to discuss why imperialist countries are targeting Iran for the next attack.

Speaker: Ali Yerevani - Political Editor of the Fire This Time Newspaper and an organizer with the Iranian Community Against War (ICAW).

Wednesday July 30th
6:30pm
Joe's Cafe (North Hall)
Corner of Commercial Dr and Williams St
