As you all know, According to MR. Azhei Dr. Jahanbegloo stands accused of
"espionage" and accessory to "US orange Revolution" in Iran (or something to
this effect)…obviously these outrageous accusations function as criminalizing
civil and peaceful dissent in Iran…from now on, it will be against the law to
work for peaceful reform in Iran.
Akbar Ganji has announced that he will conduct a three days hunger strike if
Jahanbegloo, Khoeini and Osanloo (chosen symbolically as representatives of
three political stripes) are not released by July 14. In Toronto, many are
getting ready to join him and have a concurrent hunger strike here.
-------------------------------------
Thank you for your signatures. Once I have a few more, I will make the
webpage public. Please spread the word - can someone please forward my email
(s) to the Negah listserv as well?
As for the hunger strike itself, we are still awaiting word from Mr Ganji as
to how he wants to conduct it - whether he wants us to camp out, or whether we
can go home at night, and so on. I personally think that the strike needs our
commitment irregardless of the form it takes. I will send Agora another email
as soon as I have more information.
We have also translated a statement on the hunger strike by Dr Haghighatjoo.
It's being edited at the moment - once that's done, I can have something to
put up on the webpage.
Thank you so much,
