What Mainstream Media Don't Tell Us About Iran, Iraq and U.S. Foreign Policy

What: U.S. Tour of Duty presents The Iran Talks
When: January 14 – February 28, 2007
Where: Various U.S. communities

Join former UN weapons inspector SCOTT RITTER (author of "Target Iran"), media analyst JEFF COHEN (author of "Cable News Confidential"), and AMBASSADOR EDWARD PECK (former Chief of Mission in Iraq) for a discussion on the corporate media's coverage of the U.S . occupation of Iraq, the Bush administration's secret plans for the "War on Terror," and the need for diplomacy. Find out why Ritter, who visited Iran on a fact-finding mission, commented, "We are seeing history repeat itself."

In addition to appearing at public forums, Ritter, Cohen and Peck are meeting with legislators, journalists, and high school students to stimulate a national dialogue about global engagement in general, and how to deal with Iran and Iraq in particular.
