Should an insane scene. COME!As the dire human rights situation in Iran continues to deteriorate and remain of great concern, it is vitally important that New Yorker and other Americans, of diverse backgrounds, raise their voices in support of freedom for the Iranian people.

As the United Nations General Assembly opens its new session at the end of September 2009, and as Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad comes to our city to address the world body we ask that you join us in rallying at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza (across from the UN), at 12 noon, on Thursday, September 24.

The theme of the rally will be Stand for Freedom in Iran and the five point mission statement for the rally calls for:

• Freedom of assembly, freedom of expression and freedom of the press.

• Immediate cessation of human rights abuses, the release of demonstrators from prisons and protection for minority communities


• Prosecution of those responsible for the murder of Neda Agha-Soltan and the many other victims engaged in the recent protests

• Full compliance and cooperation by Iran with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Security Council resolutions including an end to all uranium enrichment in Iran

• End to incitement to genocide and support for terrorism
