Lawyers Have A Dangerous Job In Iran.

Akbar Ganji Was In Prison For Six Years, And That Was It...for Six Years, And It Was Finished. Of Course The Iranian Government Could Make Up Some Stories And Accuse Him Of Some Other Things, But The International Support Didn't Let The Government Do That.

The Most Important Problem In Iran Is That The Courts Have Lost Their Independence, And They Are Under The Influence Of The Ministry Of Intelligence And Their People. This Is Why We Witness A Number Of Journalists And Human Rights Activists, My Colleagues, And A Number Of Feminists, In Prison.

When We Criticize In Iran The Actions Of The Government, The Fundamentalists Say That We And The Bush Administration Are In The Same Camp. The Funny Thing Is That Human Rights Activists And Mr. Bush Can Never Be Situated In The Same Group.

Israel Is A Country And Should Exist. And A Country By The Name Of Palestine Should Be Made. Two Different Governments Of Palestine And Israel Can Live Beside Each Other Happily And Both Of Them Should Recognize Each Other.

Any Person Who Pursues Human Rights In Iran Must Live With Fear From Birth To Death, But I Have Learned To Overcome My Fear.
