صادق لاریجانی میرغضب جمهوری اسلامی

رژیم ایران پرونده چنان سنگینی دارد که جامعه جهانی در متهم کردن عالی‌ترین مقامات آن به جنایات ضد بشری مشکل چندانی نخواهد داشت

اگر برای نشان دادن درجه سبعیت، وحشی‌گری، بدویت فرهنگی و ایدئولوژیکی رژیم حاکم بر ایران تنها یک دلیل و شاخص لازم بود همین نحوه رفتار و برخورد آن به مسئله اعدام کفایت می‌کرد. رژیم‌های زیادی در جهان به کشتن و بستن و سرکوب و زندان و شکنجه دست می‌زنند. ولی همه این کردارها یک توجیه «عقلی» دارد: حفظ یا اعمال قدرت. کشتن خونسردانه فرد اسیر و بی‌دفاع و بی‌خطر که به نام اعدام انجام می‌شود، اما، کمتر توجیهی در حفظ یا اعمال قدرت می‌توان داشته باشد>>>

In defence of nude protest

Dim-witted idiocy or revolutionary?

28-Mar-2012 (8 comments)
Azar Majedi of the Organisation of Women’s Liberation - Iran has attacked the Nude Photo Revolutionary Calendar and supporting video of Iranian women as being similar to the tabloids (namely the Sun’s page 3), ‘dim-witted idiocy’ and ‘buffoonery’ and Golshifteh Farahani’s nudity as ‘commercial’ whilst supporting Egyptian blogger Aliaa Magda Elmahdy’s nudity. Her attack is a masterpiece in dishonesty, hypocrisy, and regressive politics. Let me explain>>>

LIFE

30 Years Later

Where did the dreams go?

This writing is not about my life but about a generation of Iranians between the ages of 45-55 who left Iran around the revolution. It’s the naked truth about an entire generation of exiled people who have lost their identity, their hopes and dreams, feel alone and lost and for the most part live in severe undiagnosed depression>>>

Cultural Lumpenism (4)

That’s why a few sentences ahead, he sympathized with the censors of the Ministry of Islamic Guidance as victims of their own actions. He said, “This discourse that they want to hear and hear it from the mouth of others, because they don’t hear it, they constantly repeat it themselves; what’s the use?">>>
