Well that's what I'm sorta saying - just leave it to him entirely.

Thanks, NiteOwl! Your hard work to bring us the Green Brief is very appreciated. Don't feel too bad, you deserve a break!

7. Partially confirmed reports suggest that Ayatollah Saneie has announced his intention of attending the mourning rallies of the 40th day of Neda’s death. On Sunday, he also criticized the government’s wide-spread clamp downs on peaceful protesters and called on it to release all detainees. In a letter to Mousavi, Khatami and Karroubi, he also said that the path to attaining peoples’ rights must continue without violence or bloodshed. Ayatollah Mousavi Ardabeli also joined his call for the release of all prisoners and asked the government to halt cruelty against peaceful protesters. It is worth noting that both Ayatollahs' statements come as a response to a letter sent to Iranian Ayatollahs by the reformist leaders, asking for their support.

8. Ayatollah Hassan Zarandi – a member of the Assembly of Experts, representing Kermanshah – has written a letter, supporting Rafsanjani’s Friday sermon.

16. As reported in the Green Brief two weeks ago, several prominent Shi’ite clerics are going to make a decision about leaving Iran and settling in Najaf, Iraq. It is expected that the final decision will be made within days.

Some nice news here, and also about the ayatollahs meeting with Montazeri

It has also been confirmed that 7 members of parliament went to visit Evin and Rajayi prison to assess the condition of detainees on Monday.

I wonder who it was and what they saw and think about it.

Quote:

21. The director of Mazandaran province’s detention facilities has told a human rights organization that the provincial prison at Sari held a thousand prisoners – four times more than it could actually hold. He also claimed that up to 60 people were being held at cells designed for 12.

22. Ramin Qahremani – a protester detained for two weeks – has died only two days after being released because of internal and external injuries. He had been extensively tortured and was reportedly hung upside down for extended periods of time while in detention.

24. In more tragic news, the family of a protester who went to a rally in Rasht was recently notified to pick up his body by the authorities of the city. The protester’s brother was asked upon arrival by the authorities to sign a statement, saying that the protester had died because he was suffering from a terminal illness. When he refused, the protester body was not returned.

Bastards.
I hope the time comes soon when these types of things will end in Iran.

and again, thank you, NiteOwl.

the leaders mentioned by Ray Murphy are distinguished from others by many features: dedication, perseverance, the refusal to accept what others think of as obvious, a strong clear voice, the apparent inability to calculate odds, the incredible ability to shoulder heavy burdens for extended periods of time. you are well placed and in good company, NiteOwl my friend.

this smallest of hawks has several scars and other decorations earned in combat. i have some small understanding of leadership and stress, pressure and responsibility, long odds and longer nights, and giving until there is nothing left to give. then finding out you must give some more.

and then more.

and still more.

and again, more.

leaders determine their own pace, speak with their own voice-
and others follow. it remains the defining feature.

Thank you is not enough. You are the life source. Get sleep and some needed rest, maybe a brief every 2 days is better for your health : )

Niteowl, Thank you for your tireless efforts. May you stay forever young. Earlier today I saw a message on Twitter indicating that Persiankiwi had been arrested and sentenced to hang. Is this true?

they're going to have to lose some weight, too. the basij i've seen in photos tend to be a little chunky. good luck fitting those jeans.

Absolutely not!

She's alive and well. That's the last we know about her.
