Iran Human Rights: In an interview with the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, a reliable source confirmed that Saba Vasefi, a young human rights and women’s movement activist is in a coma following an accident last Tuesday. According to this source, a motorcycle ran into her while she was on a day trip to Shahriar, near Tehran, to pursue a death sentence case. The accident’s impact caused Vasefi to hit her head against a hard object on the roadside.
She lost consciousness then and slipped into a coma. She has been in a coma for the past 72 hours. Doctors said that it is not clear when she might regain consciousness.
Just one day before the accident, security forces appeared at Saba Vasefi’s home on Monday to arrest her. She had been summoned several times before and security officials had given her telephone warnings about continuing her human rights work. Vasefi’s home was thoroughly searched on Monday and forces took her personal notes, address book, books, and curriculum syllabus from courses she used to teach at the university >>>

What Accident?
by Real McCoy on Sun Jun 06, 2010 04:21 PM PDTAn attempted murder causing a sever bodily harm is the issue here. This young lady, without a doubt is another victim of IRI's systematic blood shedding criminal machinery.
Knowing that removing the IRI in its entirety is the only cure, We all wish her a fast, and complete recovery.

Truth is Beauty
by Mehman on Sun Jun 06, 2010 02:38 PM PDTBeauty incandescent,
Beauty brilliant,
Beauty radiant,
Shining in a dazzling feast
Like the sun of the East,
"Looking at her,"
said the poet Keats,
"I confess that beauty is truth;
and truth, beauty."
Another victim of Islamic Rapist Gavs!
