The Argentine Example

In Iran today we have plenty of women who can steer things in new directions. Many ‎men have come to believe in such women. This is part of the nation’s capital and wealth. ‎These are our accomplishments regarding the traditional chauvinism that has manifested ‎itself through the pretext of religion.‎


More Human Rights Violations Iran During 2007
Tuesday 19 Aug 08
‎During the period ranging from December 2006 to December of 2007, tens of human ‎rights violations have taken place in Iran. And on the eve of the International Human ‎Rights Day, a young man was hung to death in Iran on charges that he had committed a ‎crime when he was 13 years old. Some officials in the town of Kermanshah publicly said ‎that the purpose of the execution was to “teach a lesson to the youth of Kermanshah.” ‎
