DESCRIPTION:Trump Threatens War on Iran- Saturday 2/28 ,6pm\nFilm Showing & 
 Discussion:\nCOUP 53, Old Secrets Cast Long Shadows\n\nRight now, the Trump 
 fascist regime has surged the largest U.S. military force to the Middle 
 East since George W. Bush’s 2003 invasion of Iraq, including “dozens of 
 refueling tankers… more than 50 additional fighter jets, and two aircraft 
 carrier strike groups, complete with their accompanying destroyers, 
 cruisers and submarines,” according to the New York Times. Many of these 
 planes and ships can fire nuclear weapons.\n\nThis is a dangerous situation 
 and we need to understand and act against any US attacks on Iran. This 
 article speaks to the urgent situation and the need for people in the US to 
 oppose any war on the Iranian people:\n\nTrump Threatens War On Iran, 
 Deploys Massive Imperialist War Machine \nDanger of Catastrophic Attack 
 Looms—Possibly Any Day\nWe Say: No U.S.-Israeli Attack on Iran!\nSupport 
 the Iranian People’s Struggle for Justice! 
 \nhttps://revcom.us/en/trump-threatens-war-iran-deploys-massive-imperialist-war-machine-danger-catastrophic-attack-looms\n\nWe 
 are showing the film, COUP 53 because it uncovers the hidden history of US 
 intervention in Iran. We also recommend: American Crime Case #98: 1953 CIA 
 Coup in Iran: Torture and Repression – Made in the 
 U.S.A.\nhttps://revcom.us/en/a/439/american-crime-case-98-1953-cia-coup-in-iran-en.html\n\nCOUP 
 53 is a historical documentary about four days in August 1953 which turns 
 into a live investigation, taking the filmmakers into uncharted cinematic 
 waters. The roots of Iran's volatile relationship with America and Britain 
 has never been so forensically and dramatically exposed. \n\nIn 1951, 
 during an upsurge of protest against British colonialism, Iran’s popular, 
 elected prime minister, Mohammad Mossadegh had nationalized Britain’s 
 Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. Britain had plundered Iran’s oil wealth for 
 decades. Two years later, the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) along 
 with British intelligence launched a military coup overthrowing Mossadegh 
 and installing the tyrannical and pro-imperialist Shah of Iran in 
 1953.\n\nWhile making this documentary the Iranian director Taghi Amirani 
 and editor Walter Murch discovered never seen before archive material that 
 brings to light explosive revelations about dark secrets buried for 67 
 years.\n\nThe cold-blooded maneuvering by the US and Britain foreshadows 
 the urgent moment we are facing today with the US building up its military 
 in striking range of Iran as they threaten attacks.\n\n\n\n
