AIFC Announcement for Feb. 4 National Day of Action 

 from Mohammad Basirul Haq Sinha included below]

Dear Friends, Please widely distribute this information and plan to attend this local action (or one that is being organized near you) which is part of a nationally coordinated Day of Action, calling for a halt to the U.S. escalation of war against Iran.  AIFC, along with groups all across the country are mobilizing, getting out literature, speaking on campuses, and marching in our communities in a collective effort. We hope you join in this important campaign to:   The year 2011 and beyond has coincided with the U.S. using economic, diplomatic, political and the threat of military force against Iran with the aim of destabilizing the country and bringing about G. W. Bush's dream of "regime change".  Since the Iranian Revolution in 1979, the U.S. government has:   1.      Armed Saddam Hussein of Iraq to wage a nine-year war against Iran; 2.      Imposed sanctions against foreign investment in Iran's oil & energy sector; 3.      Blamed Iran for the resistance by the peoples of Iraq and Afghanistan; 4.      Brought the Fifth Fleet into Iran's territorial waters of the Persian Gulf; 5.      Financed & armed terrorist groups to bomb Iranian mosques, and buses, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of civilians and security guards; 6.      Assassinated five Iranian scientists by planting networks of agents in Iran; 7.      Confiscated part of Iran's sovereign funds deposited in U.S. banks.   The above is a partial list of the attacks and harm inflicted on the Iranian people. To say that sanctions are a form of war is not an exaggeration.  We call on the American people to tell President Obama and the members of the U.S. Congress:   No War – No Sanctions – No Intervention – No Assassinations Place: 47 St. & 7th Ave., NYC  Time: Gather 1 PM American Iranian Friendship Committee (AIFC) www.iranaifc.com For more info, call: 914-273-8852 Called by No War Iran: http://www.facebook.com/events/214341975322807/     Ardeshir Ommani, President American Iranian Friendship Committee (AIFC) www.iranaifc.com Ardeshiromm@optonline.net Tel: 914-273-8852
