This, sadly, will embolden the Basij to greater acts of violence and depravity.

Iran to execute those who are arrested to teach a lesson.
Iranian cleric: Some in unrest should be executed - Yahoo! News

This is their last attempt to shut down people. If they do that, the world will react and it will be HUGE.

Obama already responded: Iran can't hide 'outrageous' acts against its people.

It just keeps getting worse and it makes me ill reading that. I sincerely hope the world reaction is HUGE. The Iranian people clearly need help. Shame on you, Ayatollah Ahmed Khatami.

If they do that, they'll show the world that they're not merely an evil bunch of bastards, but delusional evil bastards.

" ' Mr Obama used a joint news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel to renew his criticism of the authorities' conduct.

'The rights of the Iranian people to assemble, to speak freely, to have their voices heard - those are universal aspirations," he said.

Their bravery in the face of brutality is a testament to their enduring pursuit of justice. The violence perpetrated against them is outrageous.' "

BBC NEWS | Europe | G8 'deplores' Iran poll violence

I wonder what the original statement would have said....

Quote:
Foreign ministers from the world's main industrialised countries have issued a statement "deploring" post-election violence in Iran.

The G8's comments were not as strong as France and Italy had wanted, after Russia warned against isolating Iran.

The G8 foreign ministers, meeting in Italy, said they "fully respect" the sovereignty of Iran, but "deplore post-electoral violence, which led to the loss of lives of Iranian civilians".

"We express our solidarity with those who have suffered repression while peacefully demonstrating and urge Iran to respect fundamental human rights," the statement said.

"The crisis should be settled soon through democratic dialogue and peaceful means."

The G8 called on the Iranian government to guarantee that "the will of the Iranian people is reflected in the electoral process".

They also said the door to dialogue with Iran must remain open.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said engagement with Iran was "the key word".

He stressed the need to focus on "the main task - to move toward resolving the issues of the Iranian nuclear programme".

He said "no-one" was prepared to condemn the election process, because it was "an exercise in democracy".

The goal is not to fucking have an "Exercise in democracy"

The goal is to actually HAVE democracy.
