Speaker: Dr. Gregory H. Stanton Affiliation: Research Professor in Genocide Studies and Prevention, George Mason University, Virginia Title: "Iran's Anti-Jewish Incitement To Genocide" Location: Yale University, New Haven, CT Date: October 7, 2010 Description: Dr. Gregory H. Stanton speaks about genocide prevention and notes that establishing genocide tribunals after genocides have already occurred is futile and that we, as a society, need to take preventive measures to prevent future genocides from occurring. He focuses on the genocidal rhetoric of the Iranian regime and makes a direct comparison between Nazi Germany and the Iranian regime. He goes on to break down, what he calls, the eight stages of genocide and states that from an analytic perspective it is necessary to understand each stage in order to better comprehend this phenomenon.
