As it has been more than a year that the 7 Baha'i leaders have been held in Evin Prison, without formal charges or access to their lawyer, Shirin Ebadi, it is important for us to inform our country and the word about their ordeal. We also need to remember the MANY other brave women, reformers, students, free-thinkers, ethnic minorities, and human rights activists that are being held in prison and persecuted in Iran. Regardless of faith or philosophy, our thoughts are with them during these most difficult times.

I thought human rights were alive and well under the IRI. Well, according to Jaleho, there is such FANTASTIC EVOLUTION! And of course we aren't racist against Bahai or Jews either! Because we have a FANTASTIC EVOLUTION going on. Come on people. Wake up!
