The WikiLeaks tweets also had a request for help in translating some farsi. So there is more to come.Serious nuclear accident may lay behind Iranian nuke chief's mystery resignation - Wikileaks July 16, 2009 WIKILEAKS NOTE Two weeks ago, a source associated with Iran's nuclear program confidentially told WikiLeaks of a serious, recent, nuclear accident at Natanz. Natanz is the primary location of Iran's nuclear enrichment program. WikiLeaks had reason to believe the source was credible however contact with this source was lost. WikiLeaks would not normally mention such an incident without additional confirmation, however according to Iranian media and the BBC, today the head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, Gholam Reza Aghazadeh, has resigned under mysterious circumstances. According to these reports, the resignation was tendered around 20 days ago. |

I also think the crap that goes on at checkpoints is totally over the top, demeaning and so on, but one has to wonder why Palestinians want to work in Israel at all. The fact is that they do, and plenty of them live in Israel too. I think Israel is about 20% Arab (but don't quote me). But these checkpoints do serve a purpose and they have caught plenty of suicide bombers and others who wanted to do harm in some way, and it has avoided disasters inside Israel. What other way could this be done to achieve the same ends? I'm not sure. Definitely a contentious issue. Apologies if I've made you angry. |

As far as I understand, this is a forum promoting the issue of human rights in connection with the current Iran protests. Human rights is nothing to be related to a specific group of people, there is nothing like "Iran leftist protesters' human rights" or "Palestinian refugees' human rights" or "Israeli settlers' human rights" etc. I find it very clear from the way NiteOwl has been reporting that his concern for human rights is beyond doubt. Does it not stress his unbiased concern that he is able to feel depressed about injustice done to anyone? I am sure he would not hesitate to stand up for all who have critiziced him here if they became victims of human rights violation. Please guys, let's not waste our - and NiteOwl's - time with narrow-minded disputes about who is allowed to feel compassion for whom. Compassion is global, and we all need it, so let's leave behind the restrictions of national, racial, religious, or whatever borders. Last edited by JKShalmani; 07-18-2009 at 06:33 PM. |

Nevertheless, the struggle for freedom in Iran is and should be at the top of the list. Focus people!! I am a long time supporter of Israel, and it troubles me deeply to see the inhumanity occurring there, but for now my focus is with the freedom fighters in Iran. Niteowl: march on patriot, we are with you!! |
