Shine a Light on Iranian Atrocities

Andrew Sullivan continues to provide the most up-to-the-minute coverage of what’s happening inside Iran. Today, this page offers a running account of the Iranian government’s crackdown on the democratic movement . The details — the tactics of the government — are simply sickening. (If you can stomach it, here’s footage of two cold-blooded murders by the Bassij here and here. The clips are graphic, but there’s no way to sugar coat what’s happening there.) You should know what’s happening there, see how theocracy deals with peaceful protests, and make sure the rest of the world sees it too. Be informed. Spread the news. Keep shining a strong light on this. And may the protestors have the strength to tear down this regime.
