Iran is So Much Better than its Government

Mousavi:
"What happens in Iran's prisons these days clearly shows the necessity of a deep change in the country," the Ghalamnews quoted Mousavi as saying. "Could America harm Iran ... as much as these events in prisons have damaged the (1979 Islamic) revolution and the country?"

Conservative Opposition candidate Mohsen Rezaei criticizes Intelligence ministry purge in letter to Speaker of the parliament Ali Larijani.

Ahmadinejad still having trouble with Principlists. Update: Principlist calls on AN to change his "past ways" and become law-abiding.

In an effort to appease women, other reformists, and.... the west, the regime is sending some pro-woman signals, coupled with some pro-Israel signals. I know, it sounds fishy. IRIB has shown a documentary that showed Israel as a benign example of governments with women ministers, amid reports that Ahmadinejad will name several female ministers in his new cabinet. Ahmadinejad, champion of women! But as we all know, the only place the regime treats men and women as equals is in prison. Way too little, way too late.

Hard to obey Iran's insanely strict laws when enforcement changes from day to day.

Mehdi has a lot of interesting new material today, go here.
