Your Welcome Irandokht Jaan
by Darius Kadivar on Sun Feb 01, 2009 11:41 PM PSTYour Welcome. These opportunities are rare and when they do appear it is important to highlight them and take advantage of them to the benefit of the Iranian people and their Legitimate struggle for Human Rights and Democracy.
If These constructive steps can lead leaders of the world realize the potential of Iran's civil society as opposed to the Islamic Republic's own separate Agenda's it would be a Huge Step Forward for us All regardless of our own political or ideological loyalties.
An IRANIAN SOLIDARNOSC is Our ONLY WAY OUT !
My Humble Opinion,
DK
This is very good news
by IRANdokht on Sun Feb 01, 2009 08:39 PM PSTI am glad that Dr Ebadi is given this recognition in France. This is the only way she can be safe in Iran and continue her valuable work.
We should all support Dr Ebadi and all the Human Rights activists in Iran.
Thank you DK for sharing the info and the clips.
