WHO KILLED NEDA ? CIA or Bassidji, Pasdaran or Mossad or just a random act; it is ultimately irrelevant for women & children are the first victims of religious and political obscurantism. Given the way the militaro-industriel complex and the 3 monotheist religions treats women like sub-humans, this is but business as usual for most & everybody seems expendable.This is a humanist, feminist & pacifist revolution...

JOIN HUMANITY, FREE IRAN FROM OBSCURANTISM !!!

PROOF OF CONCEPT

https://www.democracynow.org/2010/9/30/ann_jones_on_war_is_not

ANN JONES: What I’m trying to suggest is that war is not what we think it is, when we hear all these reports about soldiers and generals and strategies. War includes the whole population. War is fought on civilian ground. And in all modern wars, civilians are the primary casualties of war, much more so than soldiers. And we ignore that completely. 

Also, war is a guy thing. Men fight with each other. Then they sit down at the table, negotiate some kind of power sharing agreement, and go on jockeying for that power relationship as they rule the country. But all the while, they go on raping, murdering, displacing women and children, so that when men end war and say, "Now we have peace," war is not over for women. The war against women goes on, to such an extent that today, if you look at the demographics, we are short 60 million women in this world who have been killed and lost in war.

FREEDOM & FANATICISM IN IRAN

"Let the Swords Encircle Me" A panoramic page-turner tells the Islamic Republic's story from Revolution to last year's uprising. There's a Tolstoyan panorama to "Let the Swords Encircle Me" that's likely to have readers checking the newspaper each day in a fever to find out what happens next. The main character is Iran itself: beautiful yet terrible, neither the paragon its jingoistic leaders declare it to be nor the demon thundered about by our own hard-liners, but human, flawed and hanging on to the elusive, but tantalizing possibility of redemption.

MANIFESTO FOR LIBERATION OF WOMEN IN IRAN
The Islamic Republic of Iran is a misogynist state, architect of gender apartheid and perpetrator of three decades of the most odious forms of abuse, discrimination and violence against women in Iran. A society cannot be free if women are not free. Without the overthrow of the misogynist Islamic regime, women in Iran will not achieve their rights. The Islamic Republic must go ! This is the message of Neda Agha Soltan, the symbol of the ongoing revolution in Iran; it is the decree of the brave women who at the front lines of people’s protest have been challenging the entire Islamic state for the past years.

Iran Women’s Rights Movement
The Systematic Repression of Women
https://www.iranhumanrights.org/2009/01/repression-women/

Iranian authorities have systematically thwarted peaceful and legal civil society efforts to advocate for women’s rights in Iran, abusing the legal system and gravely violating internationally protected civil rights in the process. https://www.iranhumanrights.org/category/womens/

Report on the Status of Women Human Rights Defenders 
https://www.iranhumanrights.org/2009/04/whrdreport/
The Iranian women’s rights movement is the most vibrant social movement in Iran today. Having built an extensive grassroots base, Iranian women are campaigning to fight legal gender discrimination. The government routinely persecutes and prosecutes women’s rights activists.

WAR INC. : INVEST IN MURDER & MISERY !

Where to invest if Israel strikes Iran? A new hedge fund's question !

He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable an ignorable war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." - Albert Einstein

"It is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear." - General Douglas MacArthur, Speech, May 15, 1951

“I found that politicians knew how to befog every issue, how to control public opinion and manipulate votes to their own advantage and to that of their financial and industrial allies. In addition, Government protects the strong at the expense of the weak, provides courts and laws which the rich may scorn and the poor must obey. It enables the predatory rich to make wars to provide foreign markets for the favored ones, with prosperity for the rulers and wholesale death for the ruled.” - EMMA GOLDMAN, December 1934

AGE OLD SAYING NOW PROVEN SOOOO TRUE ! 
“The more one is ignorant, the less one is aware of it” – Louis Pasteur
APPLIES TO OBSCURANTISTS LIKE A CHARM ;)
& FUNDAMENTALISTS ARMIES BY BOOT STRAPS !

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which an unskilled person makes poor decisions and reaches erroneous conclusions, but their incompetence denies them the metacognitive ability to realize their mistakes. The unskilled therefore suffer from illusory superiority, rating their own ability as above average, much higher than it actually is, while the highly skilled underrate their abilities, suffering from illusory inferiority. 

This leads to the situation in which less competent people rate their own ability higher than more competent people. It also explains why actual competence may weaken self-confidence: because competent individuals falsely assume that others have an equivalent understanding. "Thus, the miscalibration of the incompetent stems from an error about the self, whereas the miscalibration of the highly competent stems from an error about others."

HOW LONG WOULD THIS BILLBOARD STAY UP IN IRAN ;)
& how long did it stay in the USA ?

Why is it soooo hard for soooo many to understand that one can be against obscurantism where ever it rears it's ugly head... In the USA OR IRAN, in Islamic, Christian or Jewish theologies ? Is free speech a basic human right or just Pavlov's dog bone ?

Imagine there's no Heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one - John Lennon

IF THE MOSQUE' ISN'T BUILT, THIS IS NO LONGER AMERICA
BY Michael Moore
Now as any practicing agnostic would confirm, the mere concept of human made religion is the greatest intellectual fraud in civilization's history. But as a humanist, one must respect the right of any adult to also believe in Santa Clauss or a cosmic noodle if that strikes their fancy ;) 

This is called freedom of religion ! The right to practice the religion of your choice is a given in America even thought most god fearing fundamentalist would burn infidels at the stake. It is the FIRST amendment of the US of A constitution. As long as the whole hoopla is kept from invading governments administration & imposing its dogma on others, all will be fine indeed. Iconoclast Michael Moore gives a good example of how this is thought & done ...

''I am opposed to the building of the "mosque" two blocks from Ground Zero.I want it built on Ground Zero. Why? Because I believe in an America that protects those who are the victims of hate and prejudice. I believe in an America that says you have the right to worship whatever God you have, wherever you want to worship.'' - Michael Moore
