Human Rights Watch provides an update on the Iranian Juntas war on women. This puts things in the context of human, civil and gender rights.

Iran’s arbitrary arrests of thousands of men and women in recent weeks under the banner of “countering immoral behavior” threaten basic rights to privacy, Human Rights Watch said today. Human Rights Watch called for the immediate release of all those detained as part of this campaign, including more than 80 people seized in a raid on a private gathering in the city of Esfahan on May 10, 2007.

Carol Coleman, RTE's Washington correspondent, interviewed George Bush in 2004, but while the tone and manner of her interview appeared coarse and combative, the questions she posed were not the critical words one might expect for a man, at the time, responsible for 100,000 Iraqi deaths.
