Dear UFPJ Member Groups,

We are very happy to let you know that Antonia Juhasz will be giving a briefing for UFPJ member groups on the current situation around new oil laws in Iraq. You might have seen some recent news coverage about this, but until you hear Antonia you don't really have the full picture.

Antonia Juhasz is the Tarbell Fellow at Oil Change International and is the author of The Bush Agenda: Invading the World, One Economy at a Time. (This important book is now available in paperback, and is updated with a new afterword. http://www.TheBushAgenda.net.)

Here are the details for the conference call:

Date: Wednesday, July 15th

Topic: Antonia Juhasz on what's happening in Iraq, as well as the U.S. role and interests, related to new oil laws.

We also want to pass along the links to two pieces by Antonia about the oil laws:
