Focus on Iran: Insider Accounts of
Human Rights Violations and the

Threat of Nuclear Weapons-

WHAT WE CAN DO
 

Iran’s nuclear program is the greatest national security threat. Iran now has enough uranium to produce two nuclear weapons. Iran also continues to have an abysmal human rights record. While the passage of U.S. and International sanctions was a step forward, Iran continues to defy the international community. Through political and economic pressure, we have a window of opportunity to change the course of history. This program will examine the rapidly changing situation within Iran, and examine strategies for action.
