TABARZADI
In the past two months, the
hardline faction has resorted to many actions to stifle the plans for
the anniversary of the July Student Uprising.
The hardliners -- taking advantage of the end of the 5th Majles
and the concerns of the Y2K (Yaran-e 2 Khordad) over the opening of the
6th Majles -- have resorted to many tactics, the latest of which is the
arrest of Mr. Tabarzadi.
Over 15 student activists have
been arrested. The wave of
intimidations, harassments, threats and arrests point to the fact that
the ruling hardline clerics have not learned their lessons, and do not
care about public opinion and the election results.
While the Y2K camp are busy with
their own affairs in 6th Majles proceedings, they seem to have forgotten
what the people have voted for! In
the elections, the Iranian people said a huge "NO" to
arbitrary arrests, to arbitrary closures of the papers, and to arbitrary
actions by the so-called "judicial system."
The so-called "judges"
acting as prosecutors, judges and juries, ordering the arrest of
pro-democracy activists, pronouncing judgements and sentences, are more
the reflections of the desires of an individual and reflecting the
political positions of a faction than a system of justice.
This type of a "legal system" does not resemble a just
court system; it can not even can be called a Kangaroo court.
It is simply a "one-man" assessment and judgement in
the interest of the right-wing group, that controls
positions of power.
The Y2K camp is also silent about
these arbitrary repressive acts. The
people did not vote for them to sit idle and chew gum.
The people expect the Y2K to get their acts together and do
something.
Mr. Shahroudi, the chief of the
judicial system, talks nicely but has acquiesced in these repressive
arbitrary persecution of the pro-democracy activists.
Why all these arrests are taking
place? If the ruling clergy
wants to have a dictatorial theocratic system, which we believe to
exist, why they do not say so?
The dictatorial clerics simply do
not have the support of the majority of the Iranian people.
They cannot hide behind the cause of the Revolution.
The people made a revolution to gain Freedom and Democracy.
The dictatorial clerics stole the Revolution from the people.
Therefore, they cannot claim any loyalty from the people.
The dictatorial clerics are hanging to a corrupt, barbaric and
inhumane system of ruling the country.
We have a warning for them: THEIR
DICTATORSHIP WILL NOT LAST MUCH LONGER.
