Broken taboos in post-election Iran

26-Dec-2009 (one comment)
The on-camera martyrdom of Neda Agha-Soltan, the 26-year old philosophy student shot dead during the protests after the fraudulent presidential election in Iran in June, caught the imagination of the world. But the post-election crackdown has two other victims whose fates better capture the radical shift in the country’s political culture. One victim was the protester Taraneh Mousavi, detained, reportedly raped and murdered in prison, and her body burned and discarded. The other is Majid Tavakoli, the student leader arrested on December 8, after a fiery speech denouncing dictatorship during the demonstrations on National Student Day>>>

«پدر حقوق بشر»؟

يکی از القاب کاملاً بی معنی که به آيت الله منتظری داده شده

تا کنون لقب «پدر حقوق بشر ايران» متعلق به کورش بزرگ بود و او را ـ به خاطر تاکيد بر چند اصل مهم مثل آزادی مذهب، لغو برده داری، و آزادی انتخاب مکان زيست و مجری آن شدن ـ با اين عنوان بزرگ می خوانند. اما آيا به راستی چگونه می شود هم به اعلاميه ی تبعيض برانداز حقوق بشر معتقد بود و هم هر کسی را (هر چقدر خوب و مومن) که تا دم رفتن به نهاد ولايت فقيه و قانون اساسی تبعيض آفرين جمهوری اسلامی باور داشت و او را «پدر حقوق بشر» خواند؟>>>
