CIS is dedicated wholly to nonviolent activism, working to raise awareness on the Iranian people’s bitter struggle for sovereignty and self-determination. The Confederation also supports imposition of severe sanctions against Iran, including oil sanctions to deprive the regime of the funds it uses to pay for terrorist organizing, security forces, nuclear weapons program and expansions with regime allies abroad.
As part of the United Against a Nuclear Iran coalition, CIS seeks to mobilize public opinion to forge unified US and international opposition to a nuclear-armed Iran. CIS encourages all to attend and share open diverse debate on the film’s educational exhibits of state-sponsored terrorism, nuclear program and threats posed by the illegitimate Iranian government against the world.
The documentary is available for public viewing online all this week at: www.iraniumthemovie.com.
Confederation of Iranian Students is a pro-western, independent student movement of over 8000 members with student Federations in Iran, the United States, England, France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, Canada, Japan, Malaysia, Austria and Turkey. It is the largest International Iranian student organization active both inside and outside of Iran.
