Iranium, New Documentary on Nuclear Iran March 16 in Stoughton

Policy Expert is Featured Speaker

Stoughton, MA--(March 7, 2011)--Strategic policy and intelligence expert Claire M. Lopez will speak at a showing of the documentary Iranium Wednesday, March 16 at 7:30 p.m. at Ahavath Torah Congregation in Stoughton, MA.  Lopez, who is interviewed in the film, is an expert in Middle East, national defense, and counterterrorism issues. A senior fellow at the Center for Security Policy and vice president of the Intelligence Summit, she has served with the CIA, as a professor at the Centre for Counterintelligence and Security Studies, and as Executive Director of the Iran Policy Committee.  Admission is $10. 

Iranium was made by the Clarion Fund, a non-profit organization that produces documentaries on threats to national security.  The film premiered in various locations throughout the US in February.  With rarely seen footage, the film depicts the brutal reality of the regime in Tehran, and the threat it presents to its own people, to Israel, to the U.S. and to the rest of the world.  The filmmakers stress that while Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has never hesitated to declare his intentions to destroy the West and to spread Islam and Sharia law throughout the world, American and European leaders continue to misread his intentions.  Interviews with experts on the Middle East, terrorism, and nuclear politics give a clear explanation of the dangerous mix of the radical ideology and goals of the Iranian regime and its potential as a nuclear power.  For information go to www.atorah.org, call 781-344-8733 or e-mail office@atorah.org.
