According to "Iran newspaper" : Shahla ( Khadijeh) Jahed is hanged in Evin prison!


She was hanged, despite of seriouse question in the case file.!?

One of the question raised by criminal experts during the investigation was : How could a young woman strike another woman ( the victime) 37 times with knife?! And although she never admit the killing during all open court procedure,but one year later the judge of the case announced that; she had confessed the killing, but again ,when they brought her in the court , she didn't admit the killing .

According to report Naser Mohammad -Khani ( the famouse former soccer player )was also a suspect but...

According to reporter who spoke with Shahla, She said : "both, me and Laleh are the victims of the love and both of us loved Naser."

When again reporter asked her , if she wants to ask Laleh 's family to forgive her, she said: "No , because i'm not the killer. "

She was speaking on the phone with reporter when added : While in the cell alone , i will pray to god and will write a letter telling out one's grievances to my mom , I know the night before execution is painful and then ........silence.....crying.......and suddenly phone was cut off ."

We live in 21st century and we must say No human should be put to death anymore. May be Shahla will become a symbol to stop the execution!

A court in Nigeria on last Thursday brought Azim Aghajani member of Irans' para-military "Sepah" to court for trial on charges of arms delivery !







Since the overthrow of Shah by revolution in Iran on 1978-79 and the establishment of Islamic Republic, the goal and speeches of Khomeini as the leader of the revolution and his followers were to export the revolution and to establish their own circle in all over the world particularly among moslem nations begining with moslem in Lebanon , Palestine and Iraq.......
As a student activist in the Philippines at the time , i witnessed how embassy in collaboration with Iranian moslem student organization carried that strategy through its diplomate ( members of Sepah) not only among Filipino moslem in the south ( Moro National Liberation movement) but also among moslem in Malaysia , Indonesia and ........
Here we are , 32 years later they have learned how to continue carry that goal of creating their own circle, pupet / mercenarries for rainy days.Now, perhaps under different names, companies or diplomat and many other ways with bags of money strengthening the established cells.
Look at these pictures carefully and see how Nigerian moslems marching behind this guy.

UN human rights council commissioner Navi Pillay: Lawyers may express critical views but critical view is not crime !


UN human rights chief concerned by Iranian crackdown on human rights defenders
GENEVA (23 November 2010) –
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay on Tuesday expressed renewed concern for the fate of human rights defenders in Iran, particularly Ms. Nasrin Sotoudeh who was on hunger strike for several weeks in Tehran’s Evin Prison.
“As we approach international Human Rights Day* on 10 December, the world will be focusing on situations where human rights activists are not free to organize or speak out,” the High Commissioner said. “I am very concerned that Nasrin Sotoudeh’s case is part of a much broader crackdown, and that the situation of human rights defenders in Iran is growing more and more difficult,” she added.
Ms. Sotoudeh, a prominent human rights lawyer involved in defending many high profile cases, was arrested on 4 September and has reportedly been in solitary confinement since then. She is said to have been charged with national security offences. Following her first court appearance on 15 November, Ms. Sotoudeh reportedly broke the hunger strike she had conducted over a period of several weeks in protest at her detention.
“I urge the Iranian authorities to review her case urgently and expedite her release,” Pillay said.
Several other people who are currently detained are associated with the Centre for Human Rights Defenders (CHRD) founded by Nobel Laureate, Shirin Ebadi. Mr Mohamad Saifzadeh, a lawyer and co-founder of CHRD, was sentenced to nine years in prison and a ten-year ban on practicing law for “forming an association whose aim is to harm national security.” Other members of CHRD are being prosecuted on similar charges, or have been detained for shorter periods and prevented from travelling abroad.
Most recently, on 13 November 2010, five lawyers were arrested in Tehran on security charges. Although two have reportedly been subsequently released, the other three are believed to be still in custody.
Other organizations whose members have been arrested or convicted in recent months include the Committee for the Defence of Political Prisoners in Iran and the Committee of Human Rights Reporters, as well as individual lawyers representing clients in sensitive cases together with student activists and leaders.
The High Commissioner urged the Iranian authorities to review their cases as well.
“Freedom of speech and freedom of assembly are enshrined in international law,” she said, “most importantly in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which is a binding treaty that Iran has ratified.”

On 1-2 December, OHCHR is scheduled to hold a judicial colloquium in Tehran with more than 30 Iranian judges and prosecutors on issues relating to the right to fair trial and the treatment of detainees.
Several international experts and judges will participate in the seminar to share internationally recognized standards and experience on how judiciaries can protect human rights.
“This is an important opportunity for direct engagement with Iranian judges on issues of concern, and to promote international standards in the administration of justice,” the High Commissioner said. “I encourage the Iranian authorities to open up greater space for human rights lawyers and activists who play a vital and constructive role in protecting human rights in all societies. They may express critical views – but criticism is not a crime.”
* The theme for this year’s Human Rights Day on 10 December is “Human rights defenders who act to end discrimination.”

Iranian students are preparing a national protest on December 6,7 and 8 ! Because of this ,regime is scared to death !

December 7 is the national day of student in Iran. Student movement in Iran is well alive and kicking , especially on the butt of the regime which betrays to its own people and country.There are 3,000,000 million students according to the current statistic in all over Iran today . Iranian students are always in the forefront of the struggle against a regime that take its own people hostage to stay in power by increasing oppression. Students organization have released two statements this week and chose December 6,7 and 8 as the national days of protest.There is possibility that high school students will also join their brothers and sisters to protest against this regime on those days. Regime is scared to death and like all dictatorial regime around the world,trys to show off its para -military / "Basij" and "Sepah' forces in an obvious parade .
Since last year's protest by millions of Iranian against presidential election cheating and the fear of regime in losing its forces who may leave the regime by thinking about their future and therefore joining the people,Khamenei became talkative by speaking almost non stop promising the Basiji / Sepah forces with goodies or packages.Despite of security-inteligent atmosphere in Iran, today students have distributed leaflets and wrote slogan on the walls of university an indication of " University is alive ".

Parliamentary power under Islamic regime in Iran in question!?


For world parliamentary speakers: If it happened Ali Larijani the current parliament speaker with a delegate came to your country and bluff over his power consider the following message:

The question of whether it is the parliament to make laws and supervise the government or the government to make laws and supervise the parliament became the talks of the officials and public in Iran in recent months.


Before anything else to say, all members of the parliament including Ali Larijani the conservative parliament speaker believe that , Whatever Ali Khamenei says ,the members of the parliament must obey.This means an axe above the heads of members of the parliament including house speaker.This means the members of parliament are without power and whatever they wanted to say or to do about their constituency or country must be approved by Ali Khamenei.This means you are cautioned not to pass the red line in your mind!? Recently Mr. Karoubi the past parliament speaker and one of the last presidential candidate and another leader of the green movement told to members of the parliament especially to the speaker not to accept and bend to the supremacy of Ali Khamenei over parliament.

The recent months of dispute between parliament over the deadline for the government to present the draft /final annual budgetary plan which was ignored by Ahmadinejad's government last year and it seems this year too ( The government must present the annual budget plan by December 6 ,2010)angered the minority and several other "principalist" MP's and parliament speaker. This is not the only issue that Government ignors ,it ignors the laws and the parliament and... Ahmadinejad believes he is above the parliament and the parliament must obey the government.
Because of all these ignorance , several MP's made a petition to bring Ahmadinejad to the parliament for questioning.Speaking in the parliament Mr. Motahari a principalist MP told to the members that , there has been more than 50 signatures ( by law :1/4th of the total number of MP's can call any officials to parliament for questioning )collected from members and we have enough members signature to call Ahmadinejad for questioning !?
But .... who are these MP's when Ali Khamenei is backing Ahmadinejad and therefore violating the constitution.

Shame on you Ahmadinejad for ignoring the Iranian workers,not paying their sallaries but sending bags of money to terrorist groups like hezbullah!




Once Khomeini the leader of the Islamic revolution in Iran said: "The title/deed is the callous hands of the workers "


250 pipe making factory workers of "Khuzestan" province went on strike in front of Governor 's office in Khuzestan and then "Ahwaz" on Sunday for five hours. The reason for strike was because, the workers did not receive their sallaries for the past 16 months.
This factory has 600 workers.
According to the workers,the government was promising to improve workers condition for the past two years , but nothing was happening. Because of mismanagement in the past years ,the factory's debt rose to 26 billion Tuman and the workers did not receive their sallaries for 16 months.
Because of dealing with melted lead at the job site , these workers face constant burn on their bodies. The picture which was taken from one of the worker, who was also among the strikers, shows the dangerous condition these workers are in, and yet the coup goverment of Ahmadinejad ignors them and stops paying their sallaries not for one / two months but 16 months.
Yet , this Government helps 25,000,000 million Dollars to Islamic party in Turkey for election campaign. Imagin that !
Shame on you !
Background information
While, this Government had an income of 256 Billion dollar income just from oil ,for its first four years in the office.
Based on the statistic by "Iran's Centre for Statistic" , 18% of Iranian are unemployed , which means 5,000,000 people.

India "the mother of all civil rights movement" and one of world democracys diplomatic dispute with regime in Iran !

India takes exception to Iran's remarks
By Daily excelsior on Friday, November 19, 2010

"India had been very much disappointed by Mr Khameini’s remarks which were a clear interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign nation."

NEW DELHI, Nov 19: Taking serious note of Iranian Supreme leader Ayotollah Ali Khamenei recent remarks on Kashmir, India today issued a demarche to the Iranian Charge D’ffairs here to lodge its strong protest. Government sources said the country also decided to abstain from voting on a Canadian Resolution in the UN on human rights violations in Iran as against its earlier practice of voting against such resolution.
The Ayotollah in his message on the occasion of the Hajj had called upon Muslim elite worldwide to ‘‘support the struggle of the Kashmiri people.’’
The Iranian CDA was called by the Joint Secretary, PAI here and told that India had been very much disappointed by Mr Khameini’s remarks which were a clear interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign nation.
He was told that his leaders had disregarded India’s sensitivities on the issue.
India has been noting the statements of the Iranian leaders made during the last few months and found that they were at variance with the usual Iranian position on Kashmir which was that it was an internal matter of India, sources said.
It was clear that the decision to abstain from voting on the Canadian Resolution was certainly based on the change in the Iranian position on Kashmir as reflected in Ali Khameini’s statement.
When the Ministry of External Affairs was asked whether there was any link between the Indian decision on Iranian statements on Kashmir, an MEA official said, ‘‘the decision has been taken after due deliberations.’’
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in his message called upon the Muslim elite of the world to back the "struggle" in Jammu and Kashmir. He equated Kashmir with the "nations" of Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan.
"Today the major duties of the elite of the Islamic Ummah is to provide help to the Palestinian nation and the besieged people of Gaza, to sympathise and provide assistance to the nations of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and Kashmir, to engage in struggle and resistance against the aggressions of the United States and the Zionist regime," Khamenei said in a message to Haj pilgrims.
Lodging a strong protest against such statement, which had started coming in from the Iranian leaders during the last three months, India told the Iranian CDA that it respected and valued its relationship with Iran but it had taken this change in their position very seriously.
The response of the Iranian side to the protest by India was not immediately available.
According to sources, though the Iranian leaders’ statement on Kashmir could not be taken as a complete setback to the relations between the countries, as India and Iran have convergence on so many other issues, the development was certainly worrying.
There was also a feeling in some circles that Mr Khamenei’s statement could be seen in a larger perspective as his message was addressed to Muslim Umma in general.
Since Iranian authorities had been reiterating their position on Kashmir without any change of stand for the last several years, the statement of Ali Khamenei could also suggest that there might be more than one centre of power in Iran, an aspect which is not disregarded by India.
Meanwhile, in the voting on the Canadian resolution, Saudi Arabia along with India is also one of the notable abstainer.
Some other important OIC (Organisation of Islamic Countries) members had also not been voting against the resolution.
Earlier, this resolution had been brought in by the EU, but since 2003 this initiative has been taken up by Canada.
This year, there were 80 votes in favour of the resolution, 44 against it and 57 abstentions. (UNI)

Seyed Mohammad Khatami: 2010 will be the year of social crisis in Iran !


Khatami the past reformist president said the above words months ago.
The disastrous international-internal policy of Ahmadinejad's regime is the agent of the social crisis in Iran.Aside from socio -economic crisis ,there are growing crisis between parliament and Government and the way Government ministers run their ministries, since the Government doesn't want to follow the existing law and constitution. Ahmadinejad beleives that ; the parliament must take order or follow the government. It seems there isn't any solution to the problems and differences among different sides, infact it is deepening, in short there is a real crisis.While they are fighting among themselves, the people are suffering and felt the pressure on their bones.
Everyday there are news about workers staging protest or strike for their working condition or salary and....
One of these protest happened today Monday Nov.22,2010 in front of parliament. According to news by ILNA hundereds of construction workers staged protest infront of parliament and demanded for better condition and insurance law be implemented in their benefit.The government rattified law that the insurance of 1,600,000 construction workers be suspended for five years.
As the prices of basic commodities like bread,rice and .....grow almost daily and the middle class is being thrown into lower bracket and the workers frustration push them almost daily into the streets and protest, economic crisis becoming the agent of the rising protest in the coming months.
There are 5 ,000,000 government employeers in Iran.
There are 3.5,000,000 students in Iran
According to Musavi the leader of green movement ,there are 14.6 % jobless in Iran and
29% of the young people are also jobless.
Iran has more than 2.5 ,000,000 child labor and 0ne every 5 marriage ends up to divorce.
instead of addressing these problems ,the Government arrests and detains the leader of workers, one of these leader is Mr. Mansour Osanlou who has spent five sprng inside the jail.
I see the reason and signs of unrest in Iran in the coming months.

Breaking News: Gambia: Gambia Expels Iranian Diplomats! More international blow on regime in Iran....

Breaking News: Gambia: Gambia Expels Iranian Diplomats!
Gambia Expels Iranian Diplomats

As Gambia Cutoff Diplomatic Ties With Iran
Iranian Diplomats Given 48 Hours Ultimatum To Leave Gambia
By Staff Reporter Bakary Gibba & Pa Nderry M’Bai
Email: panderrymbai@gmail.com
919-749-6319
Authorities in The Gambia have ended diplomatic relationship with Iran, after announcing 48 hours ultimatum for Iranian diplomats residing in the West African country to leave the former British colony, the Freedom Newspaper can report. In a news release issued late Monday, The Gambian Foreign Ministry urged Iranian Diplomats accredited to The Gambia to pack and leave within 48 hours. The Government says it is cutting diplomatic ties with Iran, although no reason was given for the sudden decision.
Gambia’s move to cutoff ties with Iran came in the wake of an arms consignment intercepted in Nigerian, destined for the Kanilai Farms ( owned, and operated by President Yahya Jammeh). It is not clear if the Government is retaliating against the Iranian arms interception that were destined for The Gambia. What is evident though, the Foreign Ministry today warned all Iranian diplomats assigned to The Gambia to leave with immediate effect. Failure of which, could result to forceful removal from The Gambia, the Government warned.
The Government of The Gambia also announced to cancel all projects financed by the Iranian Government. It also declared Iranian diplomats persona non grata. It says Iranian diplomats are unwelcomed in this country.
Few days before the Government’s move to expel Iranian diplomats from The Gambia, the Foreign Ministry recalled its staffers assigned to Iran. It also closed The Gambian Mission in Iran. Local embassy staffers were asked to report to Banjul with immediate effect.

More International pressure on regime in Iran !


Norwegian minister criticizes regime for exporting terror !

NCRI, 13 November 2010 - Norway’s Minister of Justice has accused the Iranian regime of exporting terrorism abroad and said his country will not issue visas to mullahs who are sent by the Iranian regime to incite terrorism and violent acts in Norway, according to al-Arabiya TV’s website on Thursday.In an interview with Norway’s official TV channel, Knut Storberget voiced deep frustration over the Iranian regime’s destructive influence in Norway and added, “Mullahs who come from Iran and who train others in terrorist operations can be denied visas.”The Norwegian justice minister added, “The fact that these individuals encourage others to perpetrate violent acts is definitely unlawful and warrants prosecution.”Last week, Norway’s NRK TV station aired a report about the activities of Majma’ Ahl-e Beyt, an organ tasked with exporting the Iranian regime’s terrorism. The report accused the clerical regime of sending reactionary clerics to Norway to encourage violence and hate propaganda.

Majority of UN members heard Iranian people cry for freedom & violation of human rights by regime in Iran!Another international blow to regime !

UN Resolution on Iran’s Human Rights Violations Approved by Huge Margin
(18 November 2010)
The Third Committee of the United Nations General Assembly’s strong approval of a draft resolution, condemning Iran for grave human right violations, is a welcome step in the continuing effort to put a stoplight on the country’s growing human rights crisis, said the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran today.

The General Assembly will formally adopt the resolution in December. UN human rights bodies should put in place mechanisms to hold Iran accountable for its rights abuses and toward implementing the resolution, the Campaign added.
The resolution was passed with 80 votes in favor, 44 against, and 57 abstentions. During the proceedings, Iran’s highest human rights official, Mohammad Javad Larijani, who has traveled to New York to lobby against the resolution, filed a No Action Motion (NAM), a procedural move attempting to prevent the vote from taking place. But Iran’s maneuver failed glaringly with a vote of 91 against, 51 in favor, and 32 abstentions.
Passage of the Resolution will mark the seventh consecutive year the UN has cited Iran’s multiple failures to abide by human rights standards and urged cooperation with UN authorities to address them. But in an attempt to rally opposition to the measure, Larijani labeled it a political attack by the West and a “provocation.”
“Exhausted rhetoric cannot hide the fact that Iran’s inhumane treatment of its people has again aroused the condemnation of the member states,” stated Aaron Rhodes, a spokesperson for the Campaign.
“Excessive numbers of executions, most without due process; juvenile executions; inhuman punishments including stoning and amputations; systematic torture; discrimination against women; the targeting of journalists and human right lawyers; the arbitrary detainment of thousands—all of these problems and more compel the international community to demand urgent improvements,” he said.
In recent years, Iran has continued to thwart all efforts to assist it in improving its human rights record. No UN Special Rapporteur has been allowed into the country since 2005, despite repeated demands by UN officials. Since the General Assembly’s 2009 resolution on Iran’s human rights record, the government has ignored all concerns raised therein and allowed the human rights situation in the country to further deteriorate.
More than 500 prisoners of conscience, who have been jailed solely for their opinions and beliefs following Iran’s tainted 2009 presidential elections, are languishing in prisons and subjected to ill-treatment. The Judiciary has handed down draconian prison and flogging sentences and fines to activists on the basis of trumped up national security charges. Numerous human rights lawyers, including Nasrin Sotoudeh and Mohammad Seifzadeh, have recently been arbitrarily arrested and prosecuted.
The Campaign has received credible allegations of dozens of group executions in Vakilabad prison, possibly adding hundreds to the annual number of executions in Iran, which are already the second highest in the world after China.
The International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran welcomes the wide-reaching, cross-regional support for the Resolution, and urges Iran to begin a program of constructive cooperation with the United Nations to address the concerns raised.

Is this a justice system or a " Killing Machine" !


I'm very very very sorry to inform you that another young man's life is going to be taken by the people who call themselves as judge or human being and their organization as justice system!

The superior court in a letter to division number 9 of the court of revolution in Orumieh ordered to the execution of the sentence and division number 9 of Orumieh city also sent the case file of this prisoner to the prosecutor for execution.

Hossein Khezri spent 49 days in solitary confinement. This is a secret detention center which is being run by "Sepah" (The Islamic national guard)" . Earlier Mr. Khezri wrote a letter to international human rights organizations to follow his complaint from judiciary and "Sepah"and mentioned he is under intense pressure and torture which made him to cofession.This detention centre isn't under national prison organization management.

Mr. Khezri's lawyer stopped following the case due to pressure by officials and consequences.

Shahla Jahed, the Iranian women is going to be hanged on Wednesday December one!




"Mohammad Sadegh Larijani the head of Islamic judiciary power had signed for the execution of Ms. Shahla Jahed and she will be hanged on December 1,2010, this is if the victims' family also press on the execution. The prosecutor was informed of this sentence and if the victims family do not withdraw from " Ghesas " ( revenge ) the sentence will be carried out."

"The relationship of Shahla Jahed and Naser Mohammadkhani ( the well known Iranian soccer player ) lasted four years. She is charged with murdering Laleh saharkheizan (the wife of Naser Mohammadkhani). In the police interrogation she admit the killing but later she said she confessed to the murdering under torture and pressure ."
She had spent 9 years in prison and her case file was reviwed by 31 judges.
This was what i red this morning. I'm in shock, that at this time and age , the judiciary in the world still make decision to murder a person instead of keeping them in custody and educating them.

Iran arms-smuggling case roils Nigeria
Nigerian foreign minister threatens action against Iran in arms case


Bashir Adigun, Associated Press, On Friday November 12, 2010, 10:31 am EST
ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) -- Nigeria will take actions against Iran if an investigation shows it violated international law and U.N. sanctions in an arms smuggling case, Nigeria's foreign minister said Friday.
The artillery rockets and other weapons, loaded in 13 shipping containers that were labeled as building supplies, were seized on Oct. 26 at a port in Lagos, Nigeria. Nigeria's security service believes the arms were imported by some local politicians to destabilize the country if they lose in upcoming elections that are expected to be hotly contested.
An international cargo shipper based in France has said one of its ships picked up the containers from Bandar Abbas, a port in southern Iran.
"The consignment did originate from Iran," Nigerian Foreign Minister Odein Ajumogobia told a news conference Friday "That has been confirmed from our own shipping documents and the Iranian authorities have also confirmed that the consignment did originate from Iran."
Underscoring the sensitivity of the matter, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki met with his Nigerian counterpart here late Thursday.
Ajumogobia said that as a result of his "very productive meeting" with Mottaki, the Iranian official authorized Nigerian officials to interview one of two Iranians implicated in the arms case. But Ajumogobia said the other man has diplomatic immunity.
Nigerian authorities believe both men are hiding in the Iranian Embassy, located down a quiet street in Abuja, the capital, and which is being watched by Nigerian security officials.
"If Nigeria finds at the conclusion of the investigation that there has been a breach of international law, a breach of U.N. sanctions, Nigeria is a member of the U.N. Security Council (and) we will do what is necessary," Ajumogobia told reporters.
In a 2007 resolution stepping up sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program, the U.N. Security Council banned Iranian arms exports, forbidding the sale or supply of weapons by Iran, whether directly or indirectly. It requires nations to prevent any such transfers and prevent their citizens from obtaining any weapons from Iran.
Mottaki's visit came after Nigerian authorities had concluded that Iran's government was behind the arms shipment, according to internal Nigerian government documents seen Thursday by The Associated Press.
The Nigerian foreign minister said Mottaki cleared the way for Nigerian security officials to interview Azimi Agajany, one of the men who Nigeria says organized the secret arms shipment through a Tehran-based company called International Trading and General Construction. Ajumogobia said Agajany may be questions as early as Friday.
The internal government reports seen by AP say Agajany received a visa to travel to Nigeria after getting an endorsement from Sheikh Ali Abbas Othman, also known as Abbas Jega, a Nigerian who worked for Radio Tehran's Hausa language service and studied in Iran. Jega is in the custody of Nigeria's State Security Service, a Nigerian government official told the AP.
The other Iranian implicated in the case, Sayed Akbar Tahmaesebi, entered Nigeria after Nigerian authorities received a letter of recommendation from Iran's foreign ministry saying he would "provide administrative support" at its Abuja embassy, according to the internal Nigerian reports.
Tahmaesebi has diplomatic immunity and cannot be questioned without Iran's consent, Ajumogobia said.
"If the Iranians are willing to waive immunity then we will pursue that, but in the meantime we are taking one step at a time," the Nigerian foreign minister told journalists.
Inside the cargo containers at Nigeria's main port in Lagos, inspectors found 107mm artillery rockets, rifle rounds and arms. The rockets can accurately hit targets more than 5 miles (8.5 kilometers) away with a 40-foot (12-meter) killing radius. Insurgents in Afghanistan and Iraq have used similar rockets against U.S. troops. China, the United States, and Russia manufacture versions of the rocket, as does Iran.
Displaying a lack of knowledge about Nigeria's geography, Agajany initially wanted the consignments shipped to Abuja, the documents said. When Agajany was told there is no port in Abuja, which lies hundreds of miles (kilometers) from the coast, he came up with Lagos as the destination.
By shipping arms to the country, Iran may be attempting to "tweak" Western powers by showing it can influence affairs in a country vital to U.S. oil supplies, said David Bender, a Washington-based analyst who studies Iran for the Eurasia Group.
"From their perspective, it doesn't cost anything," Bender said. "But it gives the impression that they are a global player."
Nigeria has a predominantly Muslim north and Christian south. Targeted killings allegedly committed by a radical Islamic sect have been shaking the north while militants have launched attacks in the oil-rich southern delta. Presidential elections are scheduled for next year in Africa's most populous country that embraced democracy only a decade ago after a string of military dictatorships and coups.

Aung San Suu Kyi released ! Love of people to a true leader !


Burma's military government freed pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi on Saturday after her latest term of detention expired.
As many as 5,000 supporters gathered outside her residence in Rangoon as she appeared at the gate of her compound.
It took Suu Kyi, 65, about 20 minutes to quiet the boisterous well-wishers. She spoke briefly, thanking her supporters.
"I haven't seen you for a long time," she said, adding they would see each other again Sunday at the headquarters of her political party.
"If we work in unity, we will achieve our goal," she said. "We have a lot of things to do."
She was expected Sunday to meet with her party, diplomats, the public and media, and to attend the funeral of a friend. She was also planning a customary visit to Rangoon's Shwedagon pagoda.

Suu Kyi has spent 15 of the past 21 years in detention without trial. Her latest period of house arrest spanned 7½ years.
The 1991 Nobel Peace Prize laureate and devout Buddhist has promoted a non-violent movement for democracy in Burma, also known as Myanmar, which has been ruled by the military since 1962.
The release from house arrest of one of the world's most prominent political prisoners came a week after an election that was swept by the military's proxy political party and decried by Western observers as a sham designed to perpetuate authoritarian control.

Mohammad Javad Larijani the head of human rights in the judiciary power of the Islamic regime is attending in 65th UN general assembly in NY!

IRAN WATCH CANADA:

Mr. Mohammad Javad Larijani in speaking to ISNA news agency pointed out that:
"human rights is completely a cultural issue of each country and since Islam and moslem countries have high number in population, they have to have greater role in international human rights decision making".
Link:http://news.gooya.com/politics/archives/2010/11/113455.php

First of all, human rights should and must be separated from faith , ideology and politics. What Mr. Larijani is suggesting is a political abuse from the issue of human rights. Human rights is beyond politics and faith and international border.
Human rights is a humane issue and each society in the world disregard of their faith and ideology or politics must look it as an international human norms. Human rights charter is the experience of human societies which was achieved and developed during centuries of trial and errors of human generation and society.

International human socities is a global village and therefore human rights violation in one country will effect other countries and countries have responsibility to monitor the violation of human rights in their societies. Human rights is the the issue of all countries and as a member of UN and UN as their organization must play bigger role on human rights and punish the members which violate the human rights of their citizens.

What Mr. Larijani is suggesting is, in the future world will have divided human rights norms which can be derived from religiouse ,culture or faith . Like Budhism, Islam or Bahai and christianity will have their own understanding and philosophy of human rights.

This idea will divide the world human society more. Islamic regime in Iran and its political strategy makers are trying to create Islamic human rights or "Sharia" law applicable in all moslem countries and therefore to have freedom to do whatever they understand instead of upgrading their understanding of human rights to international norms.

Mr. Larijani suggests, the world to lower its standard and understanding of human rights as to the level of Islamic regime in Iran and UN members will have different understanding of human rights instead of one philosophy and implementation on human rights in the world based on UN human rights charter.
Mr. Larijani must allow other moslem like reformists in Iran who have different view from the official view, also to come to the UN and say their openion. Obviousely Mr. Larijani's human rights is a political one and is the official government views. Why not letting the Iranian NGO to participate.

The regime in Iran and its delegate is diverting the UN human rights council from its record ,instead the UN must make a presentation from the evidence of violation of human rights during last 6 years and request Mr. Larijani to comment on that.

What Mr. Larijani thinks about the human rights record in Iran?

Iranian Activist Honored for Rights Work
(New York, November 9, 2010) –

Sussan Tahmasebi, a women’s rights and civil society activist, will receive the Alison Des Forges Award for Extraordinary Activism in November 2010 for her work to promote civil society and women’s rights in Iran.
Tahmasebi is a founding member of the award-winning One Million Signatures Campaign, which collects the signatures of Iranians who support ending the bias against women under Iranian law. She has also worked to strengthen civil society organizations by providing training and by serving as an advocate both within Iran and internationally. As a result of her work in Iran, Tahmasebi was arrested and interrogated, her home was searched, and she was barred from traveling abroad for more than two years. Now living in the United States, she continues to work to improve the situation for civil society and women’s rights activists in Iran.
“For more than a decade, Sussan Tahmasebi has worked to empower Iranians, particularly women, and has pressed for change through grass roots participation and reform of the country’s discriminatory laws,” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. “Sussan Tahmasebi embodies the patience, persistence, and resilience of an Iranian civil society that continues its march toward recognition and equal rights for women despite numerous roadblocks.”
The Alison Des Forges Award for Extraordinary Activism celebrates the valor of individuals who put their lives at risk to protect human dignity and create a world where people live free of violence, discrimination, and oppression. Human Rights Watch honors Tahmasebi for her dedication to promoting civil society and striving to make women’s rights a national priority in Iran.

Topless Ukraine feminists protest Iranian woman's death sentence!

Pictures:Islamic regime Embassy agent and Ukrainian women protester



Kiev: A group of female protesters went topless in Ukraine on Thursday at an event promoting Iranian culture, to demonstrate against the death sentence handed down to a woman in Iran for murder and adultery.
Five members of the Ukrainian group Femen tore off their clothing and shouted slogans against what they called court-sanctioned murder during the event at Kiev's Ukrainian House convention centre, which featured hundreds of Ukrainian and Iranian dignitaries.
'Don't kill women!' one Femen activist shouted.
Security guards expelled the protesters after a scuffle.
A Ukrainian official later apologised to the audience for the disturbance, saying 'at least we don't have to be ashamed about what we have on display.'
The case of Sakineh Mohammadi-Ashtiani, who has been sentenced to death by stoning, has sparked international protests. Iranian authorities have said that her case is under review.
Femen is one of Ukraine's best-known political action groups. Its members routinely take their clothes off to draw attention to their causes, which include equal rights for women and the introduction of a Western-style government in Ukraine.
The event that the group targeted Thursday was part of a cultural exchange programme launched by Iran's embassy in Kiev a day earlier, called 'Week of Iranian Culture in Ukraine.'
The two countries' governments have good relations, with state-owned companies cooperating in aerospace and energy.

UNESCO withdraws from the events celebrating World Philosophy Day in Tehran

UNESCO withdraws from the events celebrating World Philosophy Day in Tehran

Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO, has decided to disassociate the Organization from the World Philosophy Day event scheduled from 21 to 23 November in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
As the Secretariat was not fully consulted on all aspects related to this international event, the Director-General considers that the conditions necessary to guarantee the effective organization of a UN international conference have not been met. Philosophy Day has been celebrated by UNESCO every year since 2002, on the third Thursday of November, both at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris and other cities around the world. The General Conference of UNESCO established World Philosophy Day in 2005. UNESCO’s objective is to promote an international culture of philosophical debate that respects human dignity and diversity. The Day encourages academic exchange and highlights the contribution of philosophical knowledge in addressing global issues.“Philosophy, Cultural Diversity and Rapprochement of Cultures” is the theme of this year’s celebration on 18 November 2010 at UNESCO Headquarters, within the framework of the International Year for the Rapprochement of Cultures.

Regime in Iran trys to silence human rights lawyers !




Who else can question the Islamic judiciary system in Iran? If it wasn't these brave human rights lawyers then who could explain legal questions to public? But regime is trying to silence these lawyers.

According to news, On Saturday Oct. 30 ,2010, division number 15 -court of revolution sentenced Mohammad Seifzadeh the human rights lawyer to 9 years imprisonment and he has been banned from professional practice for 10 years.He was charged based on " activities against national security" for creating the Association of Human Rights Defenders in Iran !?

Shirin Ebadi Iranian lawyer and the Noble Peace Prize winner who live in exile in a joint communique demanded the Islamic Republic regime judiciary power to end its illegal activities against lawyers.She said : These lawyers are being imprisoned only because they have defended the human rights and their clients.

Mohammad Ali Dadkhah and Abdolfatah Soltani are two other human rights lawyers who will face the same charges if UN human rights council won''t do anything.


So far Abdolkarim Lahiji Iranian lawyer and currently vice president of FIDH , Shirin Ebadi, Mohammad Mostafaei and many other Iranian lawyers left Iran because of persecution and live in exile.

Last week we read news about Ms. Nasrin Sotudeh another brave Iranian human rights lawyer who went on hunger strike inside prison and currently serve unjust sentencing.

Mr. Mohammad Oliaeifard is another human rights lawyer who is currently serving his one year prison sentence because of defending his clients rights.

All these are happening and the head of judiciary power Mr. Mohammad Sadegh Larijani is silence and live his comfortable life and no one can question him, well because , less human rights lawyers means less questioning the system and eventually less headache for him.
