*AN APPEAL TO ORGANIZERS AND ACTIVISTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND AROUND THE 
WORLD:*

Consider as soon as possible if you can organize a STOP WAR ON IRAN 
protest in your locality during the weekend of August 2 -- 3.  Let us 
know <http://stopwaroniran.org/aug22008volorgcent.shtml> so that your 
protest can be listed.

*YET ANOTHER U.S. WAR? *

The U.S. occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan is hated by the people 
there. These wars have no support at home and are ruining the domestic 
economy. Instead of pulling out, the Bush administration is preparing 
for still another war---this time against Iran . This must be stopped!

*AGRESSION TOWARDS IRAN IS ESCALATING*

On June 4, George Bush, with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert at his 
side, called Iran a "threat to peace."  Two days before, acting as a 
proxy for the Pentagon, Israel used advanced U.S. fighter planes to 
conduct massive air maneuvers, which the media called a "dress 
rehearsal" for an attack on Iran 's nuclear facility. Under pressure 
from the U.S. , the European Union announced sanctions against Iran on 
June 23.  A bill is before Congress for further U.S. sanctions on Iran 
and even a blockade of Iran .

*IRAN "THREATS" A HOAX*

Iran as a "nuclear threat" is as much a hoax as Bush's claim of "weapons 
of mass destruction" in Iraq used to justify the war there. The 
International Atomic Energy Agency, which inspects Iran 's nuclear 
facilities, says it has no weapons program and is developing nuclear 
power for the days when its oil runs out. Even Washington 's 16 top spy 
agencies issued a joint statement that said Iran does not have nuclear 
weapons technology!

U.S. and Israel are the real nuclear danger. The Pentagon has a huge, 
nuclear-capable naval armada in the Persian/Arabian Gulf, with guns 
aimed at Iran . Israel , the Pentagon's proxy force in the Middle East , 
has up to 200 nuclear warheads and has never signed the Nuclear 
Non-Proliferation Treaty.  Iran did sign it.
*
WAR HURTS U.S. ECONOMY*

While billions of dollars go to war, at home the unemployment rate had 
the biggest spike in 23 years.  Home foreclosures and evictions are 
increasing; fuel and food prices are through the roof. While the 
situation is growing dire for many, Washington 's cuts to domestic 
programs continue.  A new U.S. war will bring only more suffering.

*WHAT WE DO RIGHT NOW CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE *

While the summer is a difficult time to call protests, the August recess 
of Congress gives the White House an opportunity for unopposed 
aggression against Iran .  We must not let this happen! From the 
anti-war movement and all movements for social change, to religious and 
grassroots organizations, unions and schools, let us join forces to 
demand "No war on Iran, U.S. out of Iraq, Money for human needs not war! "

This call to action is issued by StopWarOnIran.org 
<http://www.stopwaroniran.org>, a network of thousands of concerned 
activists and organizations fighting to stop a new war against Iran 
since February  2006.
