NEW SANCTIONS AGAINST IRAN, NEW DIPLOMACY OF WAR MONGERING
Featuring Video Talk on “Media Myths About Iran” from Author Phil Wilayto
 
WEDNESDAY April 7
6:30pm
Joe's Cafe ~ in the Large North Hall

Vancouver, Canada
 
Since the 1979 Iranian revolution, Iran has remained a country independent of the US domination that has permeated much of the Middle East. Currently Iran is again coming under increasing attack from the US and other imperialist countries, through a new set of sanctions. The aim of the new sanctions is in fact to strangle Iran economically, punish Iranians for their resistance to the US bully, and presumably to create chaos and unrest for “regime change.”
 
Why have Iranian people been under US attacks since the 1979 revolution? Why is the US government currently spending 400 million dollars to destabilize Iran? What effect have sanctions had on Iran and how will it be this time? Why are the US and other countries pushing for sanctions against Iran? What should the response of the antiwar movement be?
