Victim of religious war
by TheTruth (not verified) on Sat Aug 23, 2008 09:41 AM PDTHope Mullahs wake up and understand that assassinations are not the answer. Not sure if this is proven to be work of Mullahs or just a someone within regime took matter on his own hands.
So, what is the difference between Armenians who live in Iran and are being loved and Evangelical Christians who are being victimized? I did not know we had evalgelicals in Iran. Is this another tool to fight Mullahs in Iran? Looks like the agony of this victim is being cultivated and exploited masterfully.
I wonder if any movie was made about the Iranians who were killed and raped during hostage crisis in early 80's. Their only guilt was being Iranian!
Stop victimization for political gains and support peace on Earth!
May he rest in Peace. While

While the Islamic Republic sponsored supporters are free to march in the streets of London, and pretend they care for the Palestinians, Iranian pro-democracy activists are being deported back to the Ayatollahs who sponsor Hezbollah and Hamas.
Please write, fax, phone or email Tony McNulty, Home Office minister and the MP for the constituency where Arash lived and politely inform him of the grave mistake the Home Office is making.

Two of Saeed Emami's tens of murders
by Pedram (not verified) on Sat Aug 23, 2008 03:06 AM PDTSaeed Emami, the Deputy Minister of Information under Fallahian, was after Mehdi Dibaj not just because he had converted, but because he was helping others convert to Christianity. He murdered several christian clergy like that.
He then brought several people, including two women, who had been serving prison terms to confess on television that they had murdered Dibaj (as well as planning the Emam Reza Shrine explosion). A few months later the newspapers wrote that those women had received the death sentence, but that their sentence had been reduced to exile to somewhere in Sistan & Baluchestan.
When the whole Saeed Emami fiasco broke out over the serial murders of inellectuals and writers in Iran (ghatl haye zanjirehi), witness reporters said that he had planned that whole thing with those confessions, inviting the reporters to the "made for TV confession" session and had acted as an expert director (!) while managing those confessions on camera.
The man was a beast and a cruel murderer.
A brave man of God
by ThePope on Sat Aug 23, 2008 02:38 AM PDTHe fought for the rights of religious minorities; reported IR's violations of religious freedom to UN and he refused to sign any kind of bullshit statement for IR...
