Ma Mooli, how low you have truly sunk. You are now justifying the decision of the dictators of Iran to ban media from reporting on the protests. You now justify the imprisonment of students who dare blog or upload videos from Iran and you do so while having the freedom to post your own views without worry of consequence onto the Internet. Why do you feel that you haven a right to post your views but your sisters in Iran face harsh punishment if they do the same?
1) Dictators they are not.
2) A Media ban is understandable considering the role they are playing in destablising the country, it is most likely a temporary thing.
3) I dont think you can talk considering you support the ban of al-manar and at one point al-jazeera.
4) Isreal banned the media from reporting in gaza, US censored the information of body bags coming home, and the number of iraqi causualties caused at thier hands. They pratically proof read every media report going out. Not to mention they deliberately bombed media outlets that they were given co-ordinations for.
All countries do the same but i guess its easy pointing fingers at others isnt it?

Why do you continue to support the Iranian regime who only allows state controlled media and bans free media? A regime who bans thousands from running for political office due to their political views. A regime who beats and kills peaceful protesters including young women. A regime who after killing a young woman forbid her family from mourning publicly and has forced them to relocate. You said in another post you support this regime and their actions because Mousavi has acted, as you say, childishly? Seems your values tumble over at the rumor of wind. How sad.

1) No media is free, every one has thier agenda.
2) you have no evidence the gov was responsible for either the killing of lady or anything else for that matter, its all rather twittery at the moment.
3) my values havent changed as much as my views, and that is key.
