DESCRIPTION:Join CODEPINK Congress as we educate, activate and mobilize for peace 
 legislation!\n\nIn the wake of Israel killing seven Iranian diplomats at 
 Iran’s embassy in Syria, the danger of a regional war intensifies in the 
 Middle East, where Israel has turned Gaza into a graveyard and famine 
 looms. The National Security Council says the US–the largest arms 
 supplier to Israel– was not involved in Israel’s attack on the Iranian 
 embassy April 1, 2024, but The Intercept reports Iran has issued a private 
 warning to the Biden administration. If the US defends Israel against a 
 retaliatory Iranian strike, the US–with 30,000 troops stationed in Iraq, 
 Syria and Jordan– could become a target. Meanwhile, a dozen Republican 
 lawmakers are circulating a letter accusing President Biden of embracing a 
 strategy of appeasement with Iran.\n\nWhere are we headed? How can we avert 
 a wider regional war? Join CODEPINK Congress as we discuss the dangers of 
 the US-Israel alliance and the imperative to avert a war with Iran and end 
 US complicity in genocide.\n\nFeatured Guest\nTrita Parsi is the Executive 
 Vice-President of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. An 
 expert on US-Iranian relations and geopolitics, Trita has authored three 
 books on US foreign policy in the Middle East: Treacherous Alliance: The 
 Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States; A Single Roll of 
 the Dice: Obama's Diplomacy with Iran; Losing an Enemy: Obama, Iran, and 
 the Triumph of Diplomacy. Born in Iran, Trita and his family moved to 
 Sweden when Trita was four to avoid political repression in Iran, where his 
 father had been jailed twice, first by Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and then 
 following the Iranian revolution by the Ayatollah Khomeini.\n
