29] –The Islamic regime in Iran is using execution verdicts as a
desperate act to suppress peaceful demonstrations and protests due to the
disastrous economic condition in Iran. The judicial system in Iran
executes innocent activist and individuals by forced confessions, torture and
sham trials. The unjust death sentences for Pakhshan Azizi and Varisheh
Moradi is another act of desperation by the Islamic Republic’s use of capital
punishment to suppress members of minority communities and terrorize Iranian
women who are fighting tirelessly for their rights as equal citizens of
Iran. You are asked to show your urgent support for contacting the United
Nations Human Rights office and Iranian mission at United Nations to demand the
Islamic republic of Iran stop the unjust execution verdicts for both women and
hundreds of other prisoners on death row in Iran. These prisoners must receive
fair trials according to international judicial standards, including the right
for all prisoners to independent counsels.
30] – Jewish Voice for Peace is doing a Power Half-Hour for Gaza: Channel grief & outrage into action to stop a genocide. A year into the genocide in Gaza, we are overwhelmed with sorrow and rage. There are no words to describe the devastating pain of the past year in which the Israeli military has killed over 44,000 Palestinians in Gaza, including more than 17,000 children. The International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court have both declared that Israel must stop the genocidal acts being committed on the Palestinian people. And the U.S. government is actively supporting the Israeli military as it wreaks devastation on the over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza. JVP continues to come together as a political community in its daily half-hour to take action, Monday through Friday, for the past year. Join in and take collective action to demand an arms embargo to Israel, immediate end to the genocide, a lasting ceasefire and an end to Israeli siege, apartheid, occupation, and oppression of Palestinians and Lebanon. All are welcome. All are needed. Get involved at 3 PM ET on Wed., Jan. 22 through Fri., Jan. 24.

33] – World BEYOND War [info@worldbeyondwar.org] on Wed., Jan. 22 at 7 PM ET wants you to get with a DC - Arlington - Hampton Roads for PEACE. Learn about the dangers of nuclear war and how you can join people in Hampton Roads working for nuclear disarmament. As the Doomsday Clock stands at 90 seconds to midnight and threats of nuclear war have become commonplace, meet virtually to discuss the U.N. Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons and learn about humanity's best chance for global, verifiable nuclear disarmament. The Hampton Roads Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons will host a viewing of the documentary film, "Television Event." The movie examines the dramatic climax of the Cold War through the lens of the ABC network, as it narrowly succeeds in producing the most watched, most controversial made-for-TV movie in US history, "The Day After,"--the story of Lawrence, Kansas during an all-out nuclear war.
