by Arash Kamangir on Sat May 12, 2012 07:38 AM PDT

When a religeon gives orders to its followers to murder someone then that idealogy is failed in all aspects that has to do with humans and their society. Shia is condemened to die out !

As long as we as a society

by Parsy on Fri May 11, 2012 04:07 AM PDT

As long as we as a society believe, accept, practice what “Fatwa” dictates and commands, the IRI leaders will continue their power, assault and dominance over the Iranian nation for another 30+ years….

Crimes against humanity

by divaneh on Thu May 10, 2012 05:24 PM PDT

We now know that the Fatwa was issues before the release of this song and the opposition may be as guilty as the Akhonds in blowing this up.

Such order to kill however constitutes a crime against humanity which means the international police should issue an arrest warrant for the Safi Golpaigani. We must push for such crimes to be prosecuted but once again we are suffering from the lack of a united front.

a very brave young iranian man. unlike the supporters of IRI

by mousa67 on Thu May 10, 2012 08:09 AM PDT

the supporters of islamic regime  hide behind false user IDs before daring to support khameni & ahmadinejad on internet. the opponents of the regime are brave and determined like this young man. which means the islamic republic has no future.

isnt that right me ahmadinejad mamoor and iraj khan?

Islamist Rapists

by Fred on Thu May 10, 2012 06:42 AM PDT

Islamist Rapists have got a big problem on their hand; the generation they raised has turned on them, no amount of Islamist barbarity will make this go away.
