ANALYSIS
Understanding political divisions and advocating human rights
President Obama has gotten it right: while expressing in clear terms that his statements are in no way meant to intrude in the sovereign affairs of Iran, he has cited America’s respect for human rights and support for the rule of law in Iran. While Washington should not be seen to be interfering in Iranian domestic affairs, it should nevertheless not shy away. As is necessary in confronting all nations threatening human rights, the Obama administration must at all times adopt and implement a human rights centred diplomacy towards Iran - stressing the obligation of Iranian authorities to respect the human rights of their citizens

LETTER
Mr. Obama, what happened to your vow to defend democracy against tyranny?
by Parviz Minooee
Mr. Obama, what has happened to the human rights that America has always stood for? Thousands upon thousands of Iranians residing in this country voted for you with the impression that you are a champion of human rights, freedom, and just causes because you yourself have had first-hand experience in discrimination and suppression. Just a few weeks ago you declared Islamic Republics a danger to the world. You are an ardent advocate against terrorism yet clandestine terrorism against the freedom movement in Iran is in full force by the regime and totally ignored by you

به دوستانِ چپی که در مقابل جنبش ملت ایران ایستاده اند باید بگویم که در اشتباه هستند
کسانی که تصور و یا وانمود می کنند که جنبش سبز متعلق به موسوی و کروبی و یا رفسنجانی در ایران و یا گنجی و همراهان در خارج از کشور است ، در اشتباه اند ؛ همانند سران جمهوری اسلامی که ادعا می کنند که این یک حرکت ناشی از دسیسۀ کشورهای خارجی است. جنبش برای شروع به موسوی و دیگران نیاز داشت ولی بمرور زمان با بقای خود و تکامل ساختاری از درون رهبرانش را بیرون خواهد داد و سهم ما و وظیفه ی ما حمایت از جنبش مردممان است. خاطرم نیست که چه کسی اولین بار این جمله را گفت: که هر کدام از ما در حد توانائیمان "با درمی یا قدمی یا قلمی" از جنبش حمایت کنیم. چنانچه هدفمان موفقیت این حرکت مردمی و نجات ایران می باشد
