Iran is not the problem 3/9 (Why is the U.S. Government trying to start a war with Iran 2009)

This film is intended to counter the misinformation presented in the U.S. mass media

IRAN (is not the problem) is a 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 US and Iran, as happened before with the lead up to the invasion of Iraq.




We have heard that Iran is a nuclear menace in defiance of 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 US imperialism and hypocrisy with respect to Iran.




It looks at the struggle for democracy inside Iran, the consequences of the current escalation and the potential US and/or Israeli attack, and suggests some alternatives to consider.




This 79 minute documentary features Antonia Juhasz (The Bu$h Agenda), Larry Everest (Oil, Power, and Empire), and other activists and Iranian-Americans. The DVD also contains a 20 minute preview version ideal for meetings. The goal of this movie is to promote dialog and change the debate on Iran, so please consider organizing a screening, big or small, in your area.




Produced by Aaron Newman, an independent film-maker and part of the Scary Cow film co-op in San Francisco. He is an anti-imperialism/pro-democracy activist, founder of the SF Chomsky Book Club, and a member of Hands Off Iran




There are differences of opinion between many of the voices in this film, but all agree that a war would be unjustified. Below are brief video introductions for each of the people who participated.

@0xTRX007 Thats why I didn't vote for McCain his talk was all about war, people like to change there testimony especially when they are up for elections. Obama turned out to be another warmonger, no difference there. I treat all politicians around the world the same two face Hippocrates. At the end all they want is war. i don't agree with cutting peoples heads off either for alleged crimes, Its tyranny nothing more nothing less. Everyone has the right to be believe what they want.

The territory where Israel is has always been Jewish land.

i used to feel bad for the shah and his family but now that i think about it he betrayed iran, the muslim people by overthrowing mosadeq who was a democrate and a muslim at that, but he side with the kufaars to destroy the believers, no wonder Allah showed him and his family and made them live in misery for the rest of their lives.

The film Iranium is funded by a pro-israeli organization called The Clarion Fund. Their purpose is to brainwash Americans about issues of national security. They sent out 28 million free DVDs for their last film titled "Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West" They are affiliated with Aish HaTorah an Ashkenazi organization with religious zionist philosophy. They seek the endorsement of John McCain who wants to bomb Iran with nukes.

@desiman1

Your Hebrew is that good that you can read the Talmud?

If so, let me know what the Talmud is saying..

David Glick is full of BS.

We have plenty of News papers and magazines on the left who would have reported any false translations, or aceptence of the Saudi peace plan by Iran.
