IRAN: CRACKDOWNS CONTINUE DISPITE RELEASE OF SOME POLITICAL PRISONERS



The Associated Press reports that on Tuesday, the cartoonist and social activist Atena Farghadani had been released from Evin Prison, in line with an earlier reduction of her sentence from a staggering 12 years to only 18 months.
However, despite the greatly diminished punishment, human rights advocates lament the fact that the appeals court upheld any punishment whatsoever, given that her charges were based on her having drawn and shared a cartoon depicting Iranian officials as animals in order to protest policies that restricted the rights of women and greatly reduced access to birth control.

Iran’s post “Elections”

The ongoing power struggle has made the whole system weaker.

It may be argued that “elections” is a word found in democratic systems that use “power struggle” to choose a new government. So what the heck is all the dust up when Mullahs, with all their “bad habits”, are forced to experience this democratic process? Let’s welcome and have business with Iran’s new moderate government.
A resonating voice heaps on us in the air, “Shush!” says the Iranian populace. If Mullahs were to respect “elections”, they would not have to disguise themselves as “Muslims”.

Nine political prisoners of Gohardasht prison, in Karaj, north of the capital Tehran, have written an open letter and expressed their support for Ahmad Shaheed, the UN special Rapporteur’s report on human rights violations in Iran.

Mullahs in Tehran: untamable and far from today’s global community



The West’s appeasement policies and constantly turning their backs and neglecting Iran’s never-ending crimes, meddling and warmongering in the Middle East during the past few years have failed to tame the mullahs in Tehran and alter its destructive nature. This major regional dilemma continues to threaten the international community.
This regime, thriving on two central tenets, continuously oppresses individual and social freedoms inside Iran. This is seen clearly in the 2,300+ executions under the tenure of the “moderate” Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, people deprived of their freedoms and God-given rights, growing poverty and skyrocketing unemployment.
