Carissimi,

vorrei domandarvi se magari è possibile che voi faceste pubblicità per la seguente conferenza sul vostro sito o ancora meglio in uno dei vostri newsletter(anche se è a Vienna; ma publicity non è mai male).

In seguito l'invito (putrtroppo soltanto in inglese, anche perchè la conferenza sarà in tedesco/inglese). Vi ringrazierei di molto.

Saluti,

Dear madams and sirs, dear friends,

I would like to invite you to the international conference "The Iranian threat - The Islamic Republic, Israel's struggle for existence and the European Reactions", which will be held on May 3rd and 4th at the Vienna University. Details concerning the program can be found on our website www.stopthebomb.net.

The conference is organized by STOP THE BOMB - Coalition against the Iranian Extermination Program in cooperation with Vienna's Jewish Community (IKG Wien), Scholars for Peace in the Middle East and the magazine Illustrierte Neue Welt. Its main purpose is to protest against the indifference wide parts of the Austrian and European public show when confronted with the Mullahs' terror against Iran's own population or with the extermination threats against Israel. Accordingly, the Islamic dictatorship in Iran will be described, analyzed and criticized, and European-Iranian relations will be examined (focussing on Germany and Austria). The issue of the Iranian regime's nuclear weapons' program will also be addressed, as well as the upcoming mega deal of the Austrian Oil Company OMV with Iran.

The conference will start with a screened video message by Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Elie Wiesel who is also a supporter of the STOP THE BOMB online petition.

Among the conference speakers are the German journalist Bruno Schirra, the political scientist Matthias Kuentzel and socialdemocratic MEP Paulo Casaca, as well as a number of Iranian dissidents like Kayvan Kaboli (Green Party of Iran) or Menashe Amir (former head of the Persian program of Radio Kol Israel) We are also glad to welcome Prof. Benny Morris (Ben Gurion University, Beer Sheva) and Prof. Jeffrey Herf (University of Maryland) as well as Patrick Clawson (Washington Institute) for their lectures.

Registration for the conference is not required. A short note about your participation, however, would be highly appreciated.

Important note: Please be prepared for security checks at the entrance. We apologize for any inconveniences caused by this and kindly ask you for your understanding.

Please do not hesitate to contact me in case of further questions.

Kind regards,
