Veterans for Peace Indiana Chapter #49 invites you to discuss:
U.S. Policy in the Middle East: Target Iran / The Role of Congress
Hear Scott Ritter, US Marine, Gulf War Veteran and former UNSCOM Weapons Inspector
and
Honorable Andy Jacobs, Korean War Veteran and former Indiana Congressperson
These veterans discuss the build-up toward war with Iran, and what Congress is and isn't doing about it. Ritter warns that aircraft carrier battlegroups will have maximum potential for an attack on Iran's nuclear reactor from March through June. One hundred and three US nuclear
reactors could become targets if the US (or Israel, using US weapons) attacks Iran's reactor.
In Ritter's book, "Target Iran" he examines the Bush administration's regime-change policy and the potential of Iran to threaten U.S. national security interests.
Honorable Andy Jacobs, Jr. refused pay increases while serving in the House of Representatives. Ralph Nader says, "Andy Jacobs is the conscience of the House." Will Congress protect the interests of ordinary people, or promote the interests of profiteers? Jacobs' book, The 1600 Killers: A Wake-Up Call for Congress", gives an insider's view of Congress.
These speakers could help citizens save lives, of soldiers and civilians, here and abroad.
Moderator: Pierre Atlas, Political Science Professor and Director of Franciscan Center for Global Studies at Marian College
