Iran Freedom Foundation Launches Commercial with Tim Watkins
Washington, D.C. – The Iran Freedom Foundation (IFF), a non-profit educational organization, has announced the launch of a television commercial from filmmaker Tim Watkins.
The commercial, which will appear on 20 television stations nationwide beginning April 18th, 2005, calls attention to the threat that a nuclear-armed Iran poses to democratic societies.
“The mullahs of Iran are more connected and dangerous than you know,” said Watkins,producer of the box-office breaking documentary, In the Face of Evil: Reagan’s War in Word and Deed, (www.inthefaceofevil.com) which examined humankind’s struggle with good and evil within the philosophical framework of fascism and the Cold War.
“This is a continuation of a pilgrimage in the fight between good versus evil,” Watkins said discussing his latest work. “The same style of totalitarian oppression that existed under communism is now rearing its head in Iran.”
Watkins’ 30-second commercial highlights the potential consequences of a nuclear-armed Iran, a theme expounded upon in a new book by IFF Spokesperson Jerome Corsi entitled Atomic Iran: How the Terrorist Regime Bought the Bomb and American Politicians. Corsi, a New York Times bestselling author, points to evidence suggesting that if the current leaders in Iran were to obtain nuclear technology, they would abuse it.
Iran, which has been an Islamic Republic since the Revolution of 1979, has come under recent international scrutiny over the nature of its nuclear enrichment program, which the U.S. has long-alleged is a cover for nuclear weapons production. The consequences are severe: if the Islamic Republic acquires nuclear weapons, it will be able to further isolate Iranian citizens in an attempt to silence their calls for freedom.
Over 70 percent of Iranians are under the age of 30 and support democratic reform in the Islamic theocracy, but they have very few outlets to express their opinions. The IFF aims to give the Iranian people a voice by bridging communication gaps between the people of Iran and the people of America.
The IFF was established by American and Iranian scholars, professionals, philanthropists and human rights advocates who support Iranian’s fight for freedom. The IFF believes that as Iran’s economic and social situation continues to deteriorate, support by the international community for peaceful democratic efforts there and in the region is crucial.
A web version of the advertisement can be viewed at the IFF’s website, www.iranfreedomfoundation.org. The commercial will be distributed through Leo McWatkins Films with the expected markets to include: Cincinnati, Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas, Pittsburgh, Washington, D.C. and St. Louis.Correspondence can be addressed to:

Thanks for the article. Times are a changing. Those 50 plus Mullahs that run the country will not be around forever. And the 70% who want freedome to choose their form of government will grow. And the age of those in support of a total regieme change will grow. I have been aware of the site references shown in this post courtesey of The Adventures of Chester site.
Thanks for the ping.
Ping thanks!
IRI closed down Aljazeera! The irony in this is just killing me! wasn't it a few months back, when the iraqi closed down their offices, IRI was jumping up and down crying foul over freedome of press and reporting? what do they do themselves to the same chanel?
dirty, two-faced, lying evil mullahs.
All the calls for referandum,... not going to work. The only way is for UN to be reformed quick and take the Human-Rights issue to their face.
Graphic, warning http://www.holycrime.com/
fyi: this site locks up my computer repeatedly. Thanks for the link and the great knowledge. be good to yourself and family.
Great!
The only way to get rid of the Mullahs is to press them hard on both Nuke and Human Rights issues.
That is what the free people of the world should do. The intensive international pressure will weaken the Mullahs to the point where Iranian people will be able to finish them in one piece.
I think that is the right move started by Jerome Corsi in the U.S
batebi out in hiding?
