Writing from Israel, that's a good one! You can't read that he's Afghani in the first few briefs? |

Thanks again Nite Owl,
All I know is that people in prison are torturing and dying harshly. As long as you write about what's happening there and what's going on in prisons there would be hope to be heard and get help. Continue your job and expand it. You don't know how your job would affect people's life in Iran. |

... but I'm nervous about it. It seems like opening up my computer to lots of unknown risks. I've read the documentation and FAQ's, but can someone tell me exactly how the Iranian people are using this, or if they even are?
Thanks, ~~Cheryl |

thank you, NiteOwl. please forgive the long post.
if i may: regarding the Seminary of Qom ('real' Qom Jurists & Teachers), it is my understanding that all 12 members were expected to sign the congratulatory note. this note exists as a sort of 'seal of approval' from Iran's holiest & most influential non-governmental body. only one Imam signed. this is of profound significance. of further significance are the regime's efforts to make said note appear to have more validity. By restating 'the Qom Seminary leader has signed', and advertising the possession of the note, while simultaneously attempting to conceal the lack of other signatures, the regime is admitting to a powerful blow. It is admitting it does not have the support of the legitimate clericy. All in Iran are aware that Khamenei lacks the scholarly credentials to hold the office of Grand Ayatollah/Supreme Leader. so called 'fake' Jurists & Teachers of Qom released a completely unsigned (or is it?) note condemning recent political proceedings and perpetrators. this caused a stir, a reaction felt at all levels. another broadside against the despots. the irony is that Mesbah & Khamenei are the 'fake' Ayatollahs actually holding power (both lack credentials), the apparent lack of signatures on fake note implying where the 'genuine fakes' are or are not. The regime has responded with Jafari who says, in effect, Khamenei/Ahmadi will rule by force of arms (not to mention control of the economy). The regime has little option at this point. They are now in a position of reaction only, of responding, of being directed. The regime lost control of an election, the spiritual center, the ordinary people and is not in control any longer of even its own choices. That this stance had been forseen by anti-establishment forces is evidenced by somewhat bellicose and (as yet) unconfirmed rumors, which pre-emptively mention force of arms, turning terror upon those who deserve it, attacking armed foreign elements, and...the arrest of 30 IRG officers. Unconfirmed statements have been accompanied with others which, by their being confirmed later, have lent a definite aura of credibility and realism to the words '30 IRG officers arrested.' sadly, the verb is incomplete and we are left wondering: when? with regard to Larijani: if you had a dog, and you had to continually remind that dog to listen and obey, would you really think this dog was truely by your side? there is much conflicting information regarding Larijani and his genuine disposition. but if you watch a dog walking, you will discover who he thinks is his master. and to the person who answered these good people's hard work and effort with insults and words of derision: you have betrayed yourself. you have shown yourself to be a lesser bird among the hawks. you should quickly return to your treacherous masters, for your time is short. the bird of time has but a little way to fly and that bird is on the wing. this bird must also fly. thank you, i hope i have provided some clarity and not been redundant, as you NiteOwl have provided so much clarity throughout these past weeks. |
