DESCRIPTION:The Alameda Public Affairs Forum is pleased to present Professor and Author 
 Stephen Zunes, speaking on The United States and Iran:  Nuclear 
 Proliferation, Terrorism and Regime Change, at the Home of Truth Center, 
 1300 Grand Street, Alameda on Saturday, July 22nd, from 7 to 9 p.m. \n\nDr. 
 Zunes will be discussing how the United States can best address the dilemma 
 posed by the Iranian government's nuclear program, its support for 
 extremist \ngroups and its suppression of human rights.  Can the United 
 States be a credible advocate for democracy and non-proliferation while 
 continuing to back dictatorships and nuclear weapons states in the region?  
 What alternatives might there be to doing nothing or going to war.  
 Professor Stephen Zunes will explore these and other questions as well as 
 examining the history of U.S.-Iranian relations, the impact of the U.S. 
 invasion of Iraq, the role of the international community, the concerns of 
 Israel and the struggle for democracy within Iran \n\nStephen Zunes has 
 emerged as one of the most forceful and articulate critics of U.S. policy 
 in the Middle East. He is professor of Politics and former chair of the 
 Peace & Justice Studies Program at the University of San Francisco and a 
 senior policy analyst and Middle East editor for the Foreign Policy in 
 Focus Project. He is the author of Tinderbox: U.S. Middle East Policy and 
 the Roots of Terrorism (Common Courage Press) and scores of articles 
 regarding the Persian Gulf, Israel/Palestine, Western Sahara, terrorism and 
 Islamic movements. Dr. Zunes has made frequent visits to the Middle East, 
 where he has met with top government officials, academics, journalists and 
 opposition leaders.\n\nFollowing the presentation there will be time for 
 discussion and questions from the audience. The program is free but 
 donations at the door are accepted. \nFor more information see
