Statement by Homosexual Students at Iran’s Universities

24-Dec-2009 (9 comments)
At a time when two human rights organizations in Iran --which consist of students-- have been courageous and forthright in taking up the rights of minorities and especially sexual minorities who have been excluded from civil rights protection, the representatives of the Green Movement who are devising the outlines of the new constitution, avoid mentioning the rights of minorities.

درگذشت ناگهانی آیت الله منتظری صحنه شطرنج سیاست ایران را دستخوش تلاطم جدیدی کرد. جنبش سبز که بزرگترین چالش سیاسی در برابر جمهوری اسلامی ایران را در طول حیات سی ساله آن ایجاد کرده با از دست دادن «پدر معنوی» خود گویی حیات تازه‌ای یافته است. اجتماع عظیم هواداران این جنبش در قم و شعارهای کوبنده آنان که مراسم رسمی تشییع جنازه را تحت الشعاع قرار می‌داد یک‌ بار دیگر به حاکمیت نشان داد که با حرکتی رو به رشد و خاموش ناشدنی روبرو است>>>
