At the bottom, there's a brief quote of Norman Solomon's analysis why activists are *falsely* assuming that the attack will not happen.

Anyway, here are resources i know about - please widely circulate useful resources you know about:

- this is a meta-page including discussion and links to Iranian blogs, the fact that the Iranian blog community is HUGE and that there are 5 million Iranians with internet access and ideas and links which should be useful to local IMCs (in these conditions, an IMC Iran is probably not likely to form, but in any case, that's for Iranians to decide)
- there are some nice pictures *from Iranians in Iran* which are good for "humanising" to counteract the demonising of Iranians through their 19% (first-round in election), Holocaust-denying president Ahmadinejad

Norman Solomon probably has the analysis right why activists are (mostly) not (yet) doing anything:

The Iran Crisis -- "Diplomacy" as a Launch Pad for Missiles:
 http://www.zmag.org/content/showarticle.cfm?SectionID=67&ItemID=9694

The current flurry of Western diplomacy will probably turn out to be groundwork for launching missiles at Iran. Air attacks on targets in Iran are very likely. Yet many antiwar people-around-the-world seem eager to believe that won't happen.

Illusion #1: With the U.S. military bogged down in Iraq, the Pentagon is in no position to take on Iran.

But what's on the horizon is not an invasion -- it's a major air assault, which the American military can easily inflict on Iranian sites. (And if the task falls to the Israeli military, it is also well-equipped to bomb Iran.)

Illusion #2: The Bush administration is in so much political trouble at home -- for reasons including its lies about Iraqi WMDs -- that it wouldn't risk an uproar from an attack on Iran.

But the White House has been gradually preparing the domestic political ground for bombing Iran.
...
Translation: First we'll be diplomatic, then we can bomb.
And bombing Iran would have a fair chance of (temporarily) reversing bush's weak opinion poll ratings - the Iraq attack gave him +10% which lasted many months.

Norman's final point:
Right now, the presidents of Iran and the United States are thriving on the belligerency of the other. From all indications, a military assault on Iran would boost Ahmadinejad's power at home.

Pourquoi n'y a-t-il de campagne globale de masse contre les menaces d'attaquer l'Iran ? Qu'une majorité relative d'iranien-ne-s aient élu un président niant l'Holocauste n'est pas une raison de les tuer. Bref, voir en détail en anglais, je mets ici simplement les liens utiles que je connais. Il y a plein de gens d'origine iranienne en France, difficile d'imaginer que l'on ne puisse pas empêcher la continuation de la "guerre sans fin"...

Profitons de ses liens pour agir avant qu'il soit trop tard...!
