international / gender and sexuality / other press Tuesday August 21, 2007 18:25 by Maryam Namazie
This article is taken from the website of the International Humanist and Ethical Union. The article is written by Maryam Namazie, a leading member of the Worker-communist Party of Iran. Recent reports on the Islamic regime of Iran’s crackdown on women who are ‘badly’ veiled (bad-hejab) and their resistance to the regime’s campaign of arrest and harassment has been reported quite extensively in comparison to other similar events over the years. This is partly due to amateur video footage taken via mobile phones by passers-by uploaded on YouTube for the world to see. There are two pieces of footage that everyone should take a look at. One is of an unveiled woman shouting ‘we don’t want the veil; we want freedom’. The other is of a young girl who is being questioned by security agents for being ‘badly veiled’; she pulls off her veil in front of them and is kicked into a waiting car to be driven away. Given that veiling is compulsory in Iran, these acts of defiance are all the more heroic. read full story / add a comment

international / anti-war / imperialism / other press Monday August 20, 2007 16:21 by Sunsara Taylor
As the war drums begin their deadly tattoo we must realise that my enemies enemy is not my friend. Herewith is an article by Comrade Sunsara Taylor which deals with the complex question of Iran. Bob Avakian, Chairman of the RCP,USA As the U.S.'s crimes against humanity in the Middle East mount, it is of tremendous importance for people in the U.S. to honestly confront and rise to the profound responsibilities before us in bringing this to a halt. In this spirit, I welcomed the argument made by Thier and Hess in the Socialist Worker on April 20, 2007 entitled “Standing up to Islamophobia,” while I find their central arguments to be wrong & harmful.I do not doubt that they wish to oppose U.S. wars of aggression and their accompanying assault on Muslims, Arabs and South Asians living in the U. S. But they end up arguing for an approach that will neither meet the actual challenges of opposing the U.S. “crusade,” nor bring forward truly liberating possibilities here and around the world. read full story / add a comment

international / politics / elections / other press Sunday August 19, 2007 19:30 by Borat
Kazakhstan as we all know is where Borat comes from. & in keeping with their post-Soviet democratic traditions they've just celebrated a general election with results which could probably cause even Ahern or Brown to go quite puice green with envy. The Fatherland's Ray of Light "Nur Otan" party has won all the seats in the parliament. Quite. every single one of them. Of course people are wondering were the elections fair - but nobody is calling Jimmy Carter quite yet because seemingly according to some mystical election pillar of Western life, there has never been a fair election in Kazakhstan.......so it doesn't matter then. Meanwhile the Kazakhs look forward to oil and gas revenue the new Russian/Chinese pipeline through their country will bring. Puice. lovely colour. read full story / add a comment
