As Iran continues to defy international concerns about its nuclear weapons program by resuming uranium enrichment at Natanz nuclear site, internally Human Rights situation keeps on deteriorating further as number of executions handed down to prisoners keep on rising. Disturbing, are the news about the ages of these victims. A recent example of this is the case of Delara Darabi who was 17 when she committed her crime or Nazanin who tried to defend herself from being raped.

On 'stopfundamentalism.com' website we have just launched a new campaign to condemn juvenile execution in Iran and call on international communities and organizations to put pressure on Iran to stop these inhuman punishments. There is also a new petition page there for visitors to sign. Please find a little time to sign this petition and if you can please invite others to do the same. In the West the subject of capital punishment and whether it is right or wrong to use as a deterrent to crime, has always been a major topic of discussion. There are those who support it and also those who do not.

Right or wrong, the fact is that in countries like Iran, capital punishment takes a totally different nature and becomes an instrument of oppression.

As the pressure mounts on Iran to give up its nuclear desires, the theocratic government, in order to be able to hold on to its grip on power, will expand the usage of inhuman punishments inside the country.

Since the youth and students are basically the main source of dissent -- keeping in mind that 70% of Iran's population is under the age of 30-- we will be witnessing more and more of such punishments directed towards the young.

1. The Iraqi Election
Just a couple of thoughts about the recent 'election' in Iraq:1- The election in Iraq is neither a victory nor a defeat for George W. Bush and the ideology he represents. At no point prior to the start of this conflict was the establishment of democracy an explicitly stated goal of this administration. That is not why the Senate voted to authorize the use of force and it is not why the American people gave the war overwhelming initial support.Democracy, if that does in fact come about, would onl…

2. It's The Democrats Who Discriminate By Anthony Bloch
We have been told that it's Republicans who are racists and the ones who discriminate against minorities. This is not true.

Well you shouldn't be.So lets analyze the Democrats ideology on minorities. Democrats and Liberals believe that we must throw money at immigrants and minorities in order for thos…

With all due apologies to fellow citizens, but we, the body of America, are starting to smell.

Perhaps we can place this incident on the mantle next to the Naked Human Pyramid and the Dog Attacking Naked Prisoner trophies (to name a f…

While we attack companies like Nike for supposedly over working and under paying Chinese Citizens, we see in fact Nike has been a great Corporate Citizen compared to these citizen’s own Government.

The Chinese Government wishes to censor their citizens on the Internet but is failing to keep out the flow of information.No…
