Arrested, beaten and raped: an Iran protester's tale

"Afshin, a shopkeeper from south-west Iran, alleges that one of his friends was beaten and repeatedly raped after being arrested at an opposition rally after last month's disputed election. He gave this account to Esfandiar Poorgiv, a journalist and academic. It is published here as part of the Guardian's project to trace those killed and detained during the unrest. The Guardian has been unable to independently verify the account."

    Happy Fourth of July

    I believe in America and Future Mental Health. Happy Fourth of July !

    Besides Limbaugh ..... There was another big radio demagogue in America : Father Charles Edward Coughlin in the 1930s.

    This Nazi Priest preached the most horrible and cruel rants against Jews.

    Guess what happened to this Idiot ??

    When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, This Popular Racist disappeared from the scene.

    Rush Limbaugh shows signs of being tired and spent. ... This guy is eshausted in his Racism, his Hatred, his FearMongering and WarMongering.

    Also DebtMongering and DeficitMongering.

    One day Americans will realize that they are beginning to be tired of Limbaugh, Fox News and other idiots, so much Imbecility will be spent and worn. I believe in America.

    America won't be conquered by Internal Wickedness, Evil and Hatred !

    Happy Fourth of July
