To help Peace Club students prepare for their trip to Washington, DC, Scott Ritter and Jeff Cohen are teaching a class on January 16, 2008. The class is on why a US attack on Iran may happen in 2008. The instruction explains to students why attacking Iran would hurt our national security. The instruction will help students call upon members of Congress to stop this war before it starts. The class is at John F. Kennedy High School. The street address is 6715 Gloria Drive in Sacramento.

The 6:30 pm to 8 pm class is open to the public. We have arranged for additional seating and encourage people to contact us at contact@teachpeace.com if they would like to reserve a seat (reservations are not required but are recommended).

Scott Ritter
Scott was one of UNSCOM's most senior weapons inspectors in Iraq between 1991 and 1998. Prior to working with UNSCOM, he served for eight years in the Army and Marine Corps. In the Marine Corps he served as an intelligence officer, conducted arms inspections in the former Soviet Union, and provided analysis of Iraq's missile capacity to General Schwarzkopf in the 1991 Gulf War. Seymour Hersh has observed: "The important thing to know about Scott Ritter is that he was right."

Jeff Cohen
Jeff worked for MSNBC as an on-air commentator and senior producer of "Donahue" until the show was terminated on the eve of the Iraq war. He founded Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR), co-hosted CNN's "Crossfire," was a weekly panelist on Fox News Channel's "Newswatch," and appeared frequently on many national TV and radio programs, including "The Today Show," "Larry King Live," "The O'Reilly Factor," C-SPAN, and NPR.
