Amnesty International at 50 ! IRAN WATCH CANADA: congrat...
We’re 50!
Fifty years ago one man’s outrage at the imprisonment of two students for raising a toast to freedom inspired a global movement. Together, we have successfully campaigned for the release of thousands of people, imprisoned just for voicing their opinions. Together, we have given hope to tens of thousands of women and men facing intimidation, violence, or even death. Together, we have made a difference to countless lives.
There will be many opportunities to get involved and take action during our anniversary year. Here's a glimpse of the tens of thousands of you who kicked off the celebrations by joining in another toast to freedom, 50 years on.

German top human rights official urges Iran to release detained opposition leaders
Posted: 07/14/2011 3:38 AM
BERLIN - Germany's top human rights official is urging Iran to release the country's detained opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mahdi Karroubi.
Human rights commissioner Markus Loening said Thursday the pair "held without any legal basis at an unknown location with no contact to the outside world" must be freed, "along with all other political prisoners."
Loening's statement comes exactly five months after the opposition leaders vanished after calling for rallies in solidarity with the Egyptian uprising. Their supporters say they are being detained along with their wives, a charge the government denies.
They ran against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in 2009 and lost in an election widely seen as fraudulent and followed by a ruthless crackdown on protest rallies.

Guardian-Iran tightens online censorship to counter US 'shadow internet'
Tehran fury at 'internet in a suitcase' prompts upgrade to web filtering system blocking forbidden websites
Banned in Iran: Facebook and Twitter are among the sites outlawed by the Islamic regime Photograph: Robert Galbraith/REUTERS
Iran has stepped up online censorship by upgrading the filtering system that enables the Islamic regime to block access to thousands of websites it deems inappropriate for Iranian users.
The move comes one month after the United States announced plans to launch new services facilitating internet access and mobile phone communications in countries with tight controls on freedom of speech, a decision that infuriated Tehran's regime and prompted harsh reactions from several Iranian officials.
The upgrade had at first appeared as a relaxation of the censorship machine. Iran's online community said on Monday that filtering was temporarily lifted for the entire country, giving users access to banned websites such as Twitter and Facebook. But hopes for an end to censorship were dashed when news agencies reported later in the day that the respite was due to the process of making the upgrade.
Despite the filtering, many Iranians access blocked addresses with help from proxy websites or virtual private network (VPN) services. The upgrade is aimed at stopping users bypassing censorship.
More than 5 million websites are filtered in Iran. Media organisations including the Guardian, BBC and CNN are blocked, though access to the New York Times website is allowed. On Google, the Farsi equivalents for words such as "condom", "sex", "lesbian" and "anti-filtering" are filtered out.
Iran is believed to be worried about the influence of the internet and especially social networking websites as pro-democracy activists across the Middle East use them to promote and publicise their movements.
Iran's semi-official Fars news agency quoted an unnamed official as saying: "The ministry of communications and information technology is strengthening the filtering system and recent disruptions were the result of this upgrade."
At the same time, Nasimonline.ir, an agency that publishes short Twitter-style bursts of news, said it had received information that "a new filtering system that targets Google and Yahoo search engines" had been installed and tested on Monday.
"I think that the new upgrade in the filtering system is a signal from Iran that the regime is prepared to stop any attempt by the US to challenge the country's online censorship," said an Iranian who spoke to the Guardian by phone from Tehran on condition of anonymity.
The New York Times reported last month that the Obama administration is leading a global effort to deploy what is known as "shadow internet" or "internet in a suitcase" by spending $2m (£1.25m) on secretive projects to create "independent cellphone networks inside foreign countries". The aim is to provide services that allow "wireless communication over a wide area with a link to the global internet" in support of dissidents in countries that have tightened their grip on freedom of speech.
In reaction to the US move, Iran's intelligence minister, Heidar Moslehi, was quoted by Fars as saying: "We had predicted these actions, such as the internet in suitcase, and we have planned proper ways to combat them."
In an interview with the semi-official Mehr news agency, Iran's minister for communications and information technology, Reza Taghipour, accused the US of "cyber terrorism" for its plans to launch "internet in suitcase".
In April, the Tehran government announced that it intended to launch "halal internet", a country-wide intranet and a parallel network that conforms to Islamic values with the ultimate goal of substituting for the global internet.
Iran's opposition believe that Iran is buying its filtering technology from China. In September 2009 Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards, a body under the direct control of the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, purchased 51% of the Telecommunications Company of Iran, which monitors internet filtering in the country.

CC: Hon Jack Layton, Leader of the Official Opposition
CC: Hon Bob Rae; Leader of the Third Party
We, the undersigned, would like to congratulate the Canadian Government and particularly your ministry for the recent action on intensifying restrictions against those individuals who are linked to Human Rights abuses in Iran. We would also like to draw your attention to a developing tragedy in an Iranian jail, namely the case of Mr. Heshmatollah Tabarzadi. He is suffering from complications related to his heart problems and has recently had several heart attacks in jail, according to news from Rejai Prison and his family members. His request to be transferred to a medical centre is denied and his health condition is deteriorating day by day.
Heshmatollah Tabarzadi, aged 53, is a journalist, political activist, leader of
the banned Democratic Front of Iran and a proponent of Secular Democracy and non-violence. He has been in prison for 10 out of the past 14 years for opposing the theocratic system. Last time he was arrested was on 27 December 2009. He has stated several times since then that he has been beaten and threatened with rape during his detention and has been under immense pressure to forced confession.
We urgently request that the Canadian Government take some swift measures to engage the international community in holding the Islamic Republic of Iran responsible for the health of Mr. Tabarzadi, ensuring his immediate access to professional medical care and subjecting him to a fair legal process.
More generally, the situation of political prisoners in Iran is a humanitarian catastrophe in the making. In the absence of immediate and effective measures, the world community may be inundated by horrific news from Iranian prisons in the near future. The recent example of Reza Hoda Saber should be taken as a grave warning. Reza Hoda Saber was facing some medical problems due to a prolonged hunger strike in prison. Instead of being granted access to medical care he was beaten by prison guards and later died due to heart failure.
We thank you in advance for your attention to Mr. Tabarzadi’s case and anticipate the appropriate measures by the Canadian Government.
