Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad systematically denies one
genocide while actively seeking another: repeatedly denying the
Holocaust, repeatedly threatening to eliminate Israel, and madly
pursuing nuclear weapons. All this stands in contempt of the basic
principles of the United Nations and warrants Iran's expulsion from the
world body. Write to the President of the General Assembly urging him
to take action against Ahmadinehad's Iran.

We, the undersigned professorial colleagues and other citizens of good
will, petition and demand that the government of the Islamic Republic
of Iran immediately free Dr. Haleh Esfandiari, an Iranian-American
citizen who serves as Director of the Woodrow Wilson International
Center for Scholars in Washington D.C. She was imprisoned in Evin Prison on May 10, 2007 without public
charges after not being allowed to leave Iran following her visit with
her 93-year-old mother four months ago.

Iran arrests a US based scholar, a 67 years old woman, while she was
visiting her ailing mother in Tehran. The dual American-Iranian citizen
is being held for "crimes against national security", which if
convicted, she could face the death penalty. Because Tehran has
imprisoned Esfandiari, Middle East scholar Juan Cole is canceling
plans to attend an Iranian conference this summer while calling on
other academics to do the same. "Everyone should be outraged about this
story. Her arrest should be an issue for everyone who believes in human
rights, in academic freedom, and in women's rights." The Committee on
Academic Freedom has issues a letter to the Iranian regime.

 With Iran continuing to defy the international community's demands to suspend its nuclear activities, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Tom Lantos (D-CA) and Ranking Member Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) have introduced comprehensive legislation aimed at increasing economic and political pressure on Iran to persuade Tehran to end its nuclear program. The legislation closes loopholes in existing sanctions law, strengthens U.S. tools to cut off funds to Iran's nuclear program and prohibits U.S. nuclear cooperation with those aiding Iran's atomic efforts.

Produced by the Zionist Federation of Australia (ZFA), this new publication ‘The Iranian Threat’, provides straight facts about Iranian intolerance and aggression on the world stage. It highlights the regime’s threats to Israel and the world; terrorism funding and training activities; the development of nuclear capabilities and long range missile technology; and exposes the extremist motives behind their holocaust denial campaign. It then ends with links to further resources, information and advocacy opportunities.

 Iranian women’s rights activists are fighting gender apartheid through the “One Million Signatures” campaign, which demands an end to discriminatory laws against women. At present, men have the sole right to divorce and except in special cases, the right to custody of children. One man’s testimony equals that of two women. A man’s worth is twice that of a woman in cases of murder or bodily injury. A daughter receives half a son’s inheritance. And certain positions, such as that of a judge, are closed to women. The campaign aims to collect one million signatures in support of granting women equal legal status with men. It is a continuation of Iranian women’s century-long struggle for gender equality.
