Peacefully Towards Disaster? November 04: Lecture by Matthias Kuentzel on the Western policy of dialogue with the Iranian regime
On Wednesday, 04 November 2009, German political scientist Matthias Kuentzel will give a lecture on the Western policy toward Iran, which will take place at 7:30 pm at Republikanischer Club (Rokhgasse 1, 1010 Vienna). At the invitation of STOP THE BOMB, he will focus on the role of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and on the concessions made by Western countries following every breach of the treaty that the Iranian regime had committed. Kuentzel will share his critical analysis of the current strategy of the West for negotiations with the Iranian regime, as well as outline the aims of the current Iranian leadership and present his newest book that has just been released in German ("Die Deutschen und der Iran. Geschichte und Gegenwart einer verhaengnisvollen Freundschaft”, published by WJ Siedler).
Dr. Kuentzel is a research associate at the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, board member of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East (SPME), as well as co-author of "Der Iran – Analyse einer islamischen Diktatur und ihrer europäischen Förderer”. His analyses on Islamism and Iran have been translated into more than 10 languages. He has received several awards for his book "Jihad and Jew-Hatred”.
