DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday, September 9 at 7:30 p.m., there will be a screening of the film 
 IRAN (Is Not the Problem) at First Baptist Church of Palo Alto.  The 
 screening will be followed by a discussion led by Larry Everest, author of 
 Oil, Power, and Empire, and Paul George, Director of Peninsula Peace and 
 Justice Center.\n\nIRAN (Is Not the Problem) is a new feature-length film 
 responding to the failure of the American mass media to provide the public 
 with relevant and accurate information about the standoff between the U.S. 
 and Iran – as happened before in the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq. 
 \n\nWe have heard that Iran is a nuclear menace defying the international 
 community, bent on "wiping Israel off the map", supporting terrorism, and 
 unwilling to negotiate. This documentary disputes these claims as they are 
 presented to us and puts them in the context of present and historical U.S. 
 imperialism and hypocrisy with respect to Iran. It looks at the struggle 
 for democracy inside Iran and the consequences of escalation and a 
 potential U.S. and/or Israeli attack, and suggests some alternatives to 
 consider. \n\nThe 79-minute documentary features Antonia Juhasz (The Bu$h 
 Agenda), Larry Everest (Oil, Power, and Empire), and other activists and 
 Iranian-Americans. There are differences of opinion between many of the 
 voices in the film, but all agree that a war would be 
 unjustified.\n\nSponsored By: Peninsula Peace and Justice Center\nCost: $5 
 to $10 (sliding scale suggested donation)\n\n
