By Alireza Jafarzadeh Source: FoxNews The fourth round of U.S.-Iran talks over Iraq’s security, originally scheduled to take place in December of last year in Baghdad, was again postponed by Tehran for “technical” reasons. Let’s not forget that the U.S. embassy in Baghdad has on numerous times expressed the complete readiness of the American side for these talks. Are ayatollahs in Tehran playing hard-to-get with Washington?
Speculations on reasons behind Tehran’s reluctance abound. Some Iraqi officials have blamed the release of the National Intelligence Estimate on Iran’s nuclear program for the postponements saying the report has emboldened Tehran by taking the pressure off ayatollahs’ backs. Still, there are others who suggest that Tehran will wait until after Ahmadinejad completes his visit to Iraq scheduled for March 2, to resume the talks.

By Baroness May Blood - Member of UK House of Lords Source: Global Politician On January 31, the European Parliament (EP) adopted a resolution expressing its "deep concern over the deterioration of the human rights situation in Iran." The EP strongly condemned the death sentences and executions in Iran, in particular those imposed and/or carried out on minors.
The resolution came not a moment too soon. The EP in particular protested vehemently the execution of Zamal Bawi, who was executed just hours before the vote. Twenty-four hours earlier, five men were summarily hanged by Iranian authorities in Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison. Fearful of a population increasingly discontent over the tremulous state of the economy and lack of basic rights, in January alone the regime executed at least 31 people, including a mother-of-two.
By BRIAN BINLEY, a member of Parliament from the U.K. Conservative Party LONDON, Feb. 19 (UPI) -- The issue of Iran and the threat that it poses has been argued in public by two major groups. On the one hand we have had the anti-war lobby, with the neo-cons embracing the other extreme. These arguments have gone back and forth over whether Iran has a nuclear capability, whether it is carrying out terrorist actions and whether the human-rights abuses carried out in Iran should be of concern to us in the West.
The propaganda war between the two has definitely hit full force in recent times. We have had the anti-war lobby jumping on the bandwagon in relation to the U.S. intelligence report regarding Iran's nuclear capabilities, a report that with greater analysis can be seen to contain deep flaws. While on the other hand the neo-cons' propaganda campaign has gained heat through the war of words between Washington and Tehran.
NCRI – Iranian Mullahs' judiciary confirmed that a 60-year-old man's hand should be amputated as his punishment for stealing, reported the state-run daily Iran on Tuesday.
The judge did not consider his age or poor heath when sentenced him to three years prison, 74 lashes and amputation of his right hand.
By Malcolm Fowler Source: Global Politician On Wednesday, January 23, 2008 the Council of Europe voted on a resolution in relation to the United Nations (UN) and European Union (EU) terror blacklists. This resolution was based on a report by Dick Marty, a Swiss investigator working for the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights of the Council of Europe. The report and the resolution in turn were a damning indictment of the way in which individuals and groups are blacklisted within the EU and UN.
The report highlighted a number of cases that were of deep concern, the most significant of which was that of the People’s Mojahedin Organisation of Iran (PMOI). The PMOI is the main Iranian opposition group, dedicated to bringing about the overthrow of the current regime by democratic means. The PMOI case has hit the headlines on a number of occasions for both its legal and political consequences.
