West doesn't care about Human Rights in Iran

by didani on Thu Sep 23, 2010 10:17 AM PDT

Neither Larry King/Amanpoor/Charlie Rose challenged “the evil man” on the issue of human rights, why they didn’t have 10 min. discussion with Ebadi to hear the other side of the story?

Just like Iraq and Afghanistan, west is only after a dictatorship in Iran  (IRI fits the  role) who is also their puppet (this is what west is working on). Human Rights is our issue not Obama’s issue.

Shirin Ebadi is 100 %

Shirin Ebadi is 100 % correct when she says Iran being attacked is a political trick and has no basis in reality.

The Real Agenda of The USA is to keep the IRI in power, by pretending to be its enemy and pretending to keep saying that no options are off the table for the USA and Israel.  These actions are meant to strengthen the Regime and weaken the people by fear.  Sanctions do the same thing, they weaken people, but strengthen the Unpopular regime that the USA imposed on Iranians in 1979, when they paid to train knomeni's militia basiji's and organize supporters from the mosques who were ignorant of what was going on.

Usa does not want freedom or human rights for Iran.

It wants democracy so it can corruptly buy all the officials and influence it needs to screw the Iranian people. USAa is after control of Irans government inorder to control world prices of oil in its favor, so no Shah can come and raise oil prices.

BANI ADAM AZAY E YEK DEEGARAND,  KE DAR AFAREENESH ZE YEK GOWHARAND.

Whenever the issue is about human rights we should not be red or green or white we should all address it together.

she really is our sheer zan.

not sure if the UN should single out iran from among all other nations, say for example the long list of arab dictatorships, israel, afghanistan, russia, belarus, pakistan, india, china and usa. these and many more are all major human rights abusers too.

she is also a bit off on the war threats and iranian media. it is not just iranian media that keep rehashing the war threat story.

but that takes nothing away from the need to campaign against such abuses in all countries. shirin has a superb approach. and she carries herself with incredible authority and integrity. they forced her out against her will, and they are getting just what they deserve from her.

Peace
