“Today we’ve organized the Ahmadinejad wall of shame rally, and we’re trying to bring attention to the world community that Ahmadinejad does not represent the people of Iran, and we have true voices of Iranians speaking today about the human rights abuses that are taking place in the country.” -- Nazanin Afshin-Jam
“I look out at the streets of New York and see Christians, Buddhists, and Baha’is who all openly display their faith; I see women with heads uncovered and people protesting government policies. In Iran, they would already have been imprisoned, tortured, and executed" --
Nazanin Afshin-Jam
"This wall of shame demonstration is hoping to give a 'voice to the voiceless' and address the concerns of the vast majority of Iranian people who believe in a united, secular, democratic Iran based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and no military intervention on Iran" -- Nazanin Afshin-Jam

Wall of Shame is Bogus
by Jamshid Niavarani (not verified) on Wed Sep 24, 2008 07:42 PM PDTThe Wall of Shame is Bogus. Iran is 98% Shia Muslim. Religious Minorities in Iran make up 2% of Iran. The majority of Iranian religious minorities have representation in the Iranian Parliament. The Bahais are the religion that is persecuted in Iran.
Ahmadinejad doesn't make Iranian laws. The Parliament makes the laws. The Justice system in Iran judges people on those laws.
Ms. Afshin-Jam should protest against the Iranian parliament or the Iranian judicial system.
The executive leader in Iran is the Spiritual leader, Ayat'Allah Khamenei. Ms. Afshin-Jam is wasting her time. The 10 people at her protest are wasting their time. They should do something useful. Talking to people in Iran on the phone, no one knows who Ms. Nazanin Afshin-Jam is. No wonder only a few showed up to the protest.
Ms. Afshin-Jam should co-ordinate her work with Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International. And next time, she should direct her protest towards the Iranian Judiciary and the Iranian Parliament. They make the laws and interpret the laws.
Iranian President Ahmadinejad powers are limited, he is less powerful than the Vice President in the USA.
AFSHIN JAM A FREEDOM FIGHTER
by Ayatoilet (not verified) on Wed Sep 24, 2008 07:32 PM PDTEverything she aid and represented at the rally was true. The Islamic Regime is a criminal entity.
Azad99 posted earlier that the photo Afshin Jam holds at the rally is of "child rapists" this is a shameful lie, the photo was taken of Ayaz Marhoni and Mahmoud Asgariby by Associated Press and published on //www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/artic...

Does Iran have more criminals than other countries to have such a high number of people executed? Or criminals are in charge of the country to massacre people? What would you say if these criminals execute one member of your family?

Nazanin Afshar Jam is just a
by Azad99 (not verified) on Wed Sep 24, 2008 06:25 PM PDTNazanin Afshar Jam is just a puppet of neocons and Zionists, building their case for war and sanctions against Iran.
The picture that she held in her hand and presented as two "homosexuals" being executed is in fact that of two child rapists executed in Mashhad for their heinous crimes.
It is a shame that so many Iranians are rallying behind the foreign enemies of their own country to destroy their own people.
People of Iran-zamin weak up
by Qioumars on Wed Sep 24, 2008 05:28 PM PDTIf we all stand against barbarism, savagery and darkness it will certainly shake things up. We people of Iran-zamin have to weak up now, our mother land is on fire and we can not afford to continue this ostrich-like way of life anymore. Miss Afshin-Jam is showing the way ...

by Fred on Wed Sep 24, 2008 05:05 PM PDTThere will not be any peace of any kind in the greater Middle East nor any peace of mind for the enslaved Iranians for as long as the Islamist republic is in existence. The free world must help Iranians overthrow this homicidal Islamist regime.
