I read his wiki page,
and it seems that Iran has the death penalty
for people who can translate Arabic and Persian into English.

In the letter, dated Feb. 18, he said that maltreatment in the notorious Evin Prison is such that his eyes “get blurry, my body does not have the strength to walk, and my steps become very weak and shaky.”

Because in Gitmo we don't
    physically beat
    cattle prod
    starve
    or disappear people


And that's not mentioning the hangings
that are so popular in Iran.

You really don't have a clue do you.

The emotional conditioning
is strong with this one.




I understand that it has been trendy in the west for two generations
to equate our leaders and prisons with their leaders and prisons,
but
we are talking about a part of the world where
    if we try to irrigate the desert and make it green they will shoot us
    if we look at their girlfriend they will stab us
    if we say the name Jesus they will hang us
    and if we say "no secret executions" they will call us naïve


You really think we are loosing on a moral level, somehow?

I think this is a sign of suffering from enlightened projection.
Because a person views themselves and their own culture as enlightened,
they project the same level of reasonableness onto other cultures.

Nothing to do with emotion. Just logic.
If your going to demand a wrongfully imprisoned person who is likley being totured to be released then you should look at your own house too and release some of the wrongfully imprisoned people your holding and being totured.

It hypocritical to ask one country to do one thing when your doing it yourself!

If you dont like it dont go there. End of. I dont like it so Tehran is not on the top of my places to vist.

Not on the whole but you are when it comes to imprsioning innocnet people and totureing people. You cant condem Iran when your doing it yourself.

Sort Gitmo out then start asking for your own people back.

And there it is.
The poison tipped barb lodged in the third eye of most media consumers in the west.

The old cry of hypocrisy.

A cry that is never followed up on,
just slung around like mud.
If anyone is a hypocrite it is Iran,
for having the chutzpah to say a friggin word to the West.





























You were saying . . .

Wow you have soem photos and I could get some Gitmo and oether USA toture pictures.

Hell I can post US lethal injection and electric chair excution pics up



You obvoulsy have the opinion that the USA has the right to imprision and toture people without trial of cause yet have the gull to demand the rest of the world act diffrently.

Sort your own house out first!

Maybe do a prisoner exchange to get your marine back but dont claim the moral high ground.


But I guess your one of these Mericans that only see stars and stripes and live in a world were the USA is law and does no wrong...........

Well, have you?



Sorted out your own house.













Or did you cry hypocrisy during the London riots,
and then move onto the next crisis never following up.

What ever happened to that Polish woman anyway?

And just as I'm am making the effort to read and internalize
your comments, thoughts, and insights,
we have a similar expectation of Iran.

Yet Iran, is the only one grandstanding,
ignoring input, and marching proudly forward with mass executions,
all while telling the West that they have no morals.

I agree, Gitmo is a much better place than Iranian prisons. At least Gitmo prisoners get to be force fed and commit suicide due to unprovable incriminate detention and no hope of a trial. Just think, with the new National Defense Act, any American can be indefinitely incarcerated without a trial on the accusation of being a terrorist. If the Iranians could only be like us.

Only the lowest scum governments kidnap civilian hostages.Though many here aren't intelligent enough to distinguish between them and armed battlefield combatants we do.Kidnapping civilians who don't even cross their poor or unmarked borders,THEN threaten life in prison or execution.We should have wiped these barbarians out along time ago starting with the supposed holy mullahs!
