This program is a discussion of human rights with a focus on women's rights in Iran. Covered are a brief timeline of Iran's political history and women's contributions to human rights, past and present. A comparison of the current political atmosphere with Iran's past and future is highlighted, and what efforts are being made toward a future change in policy. The current regime in Iran is not supported by a majority of its citizenry; it is currently unstable and volatile. But there is an alternative to a war with Iran that is also an alternative to appeasement. There is a third choice that could effectively end the funding and exportation of terror and the flagrant violation of human rights being perpetrated on Iranian citizens by its government; an alternative that could prevent the promotion of further human rights violations. There is an alternative that is peaceful, intelligent and democratically organized, and legitimized by international law. The third alternative needs neither financial nor military support from the U.S.
