<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;">[dailymotion id=x67opr]</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Etrange information ce soir, 22 juillet, sur Infolive.tv. L'opération « Brimstone » est quasiment passée sous silence dans les médias occidentaux.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Cet exercice, qui a débuté hier, devrait durer une quinzaine de jours, selon des sources militaires de DEBKA file.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">C'est une douzaine de bâtiments qui y prennent part dans l'océan, y compris les porte-avions américains « Theodore Roosevelt » et le « Iwo Jima », le sous-marin français « Amethyste » et un porte-avions de la Grande-Bretagne le « HMS illustrious », ainsi qu'une frégate brésilienne ( !).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">À peu près 15000 marins seront impliqués dans l'opération « Brimstone ». Cependant, les deux « Roosevelt » et « Iwo Jima » seront déployés au Moyen-Orient dans les prochains mois.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">L'opération « Brimstone» possède deux caractéristiques étranges :</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">1. Elle comprendra pour la première fois le commandement des unités expéditionnaires de l'US Navy qui sont formés pour opérer dans les eaux côtières et les cours d'eau, telles que les eaux côtières du golfe Persique et les petites îles autour de son checkpoint, le détroit d'Ormuz. Les Gardiens de la Révolution iranienne et ses unités marines sont postés sur ces îles. La force internationale devra contrôler les îles pour assurer un passage libre à l'expédition du pétrole aux marchés mondiaux.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">2. Les ponts du « Roosevelt » accueilleront pour la première fois des avions français de combat Rafale qui se partageront l'espace avec des avions de guerre US, car le seul transporteur français le « Charles De Gaulle » est en entretien.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Nos sources militaires notent que des avions de chasse français du "Charles De Gaulle" ont, dans le passé, effectué de courts embarquements et des exercices de décollage sur des transporteurs américains, mais jamais n'ont pris part à un exercice de coopération opérationnelle.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Dans un discours à la Knesset à Jérusalem le Lundi 21 Juillet le Premier ministre britannique George Brown a déclaré : « L'Iran doit suspendre son programme nucléaire et accepter notre offre de négociations ou, de plus en plus, faire face à l'isolement et à la réponse collective, non d'une nation, mais de nombreux pays. »</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Le porte-parole de Brown a déclaré que le Premier ministre n'a pas exclu « des sanctions étendues sous une certaine forme sur le secteur pétrolier et gazier » en Iran. Selon les sources, cela pourrait entraîner des sanctions sur les pièces de rechange pour Téhéran limitant ainsi les capacités pétrolières nationales de raffinage.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal">Si intravedono segnali embrionali di <span> </span>apertura nei rapporti tra Iran e Stati Uniti</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anzitutto il vicesottosegretario di Stato William Burns che parteciperà ai colloqui del 5+1 sulla delicata questione del nucleare iraniano. In secondo luogo l'anticipazione dell'apertura a Teheran di una sezione di interessi americani che non significa ripristino delle relazione diplomatiche tra i due paesi ma quanto meno possono esser interpretate come una prova di dialogo. Anche il fatto che si apra una sezione in cui si può discutere di visti e di rapporti commerciali è quantomeno un segnale di piccola apertura verso l’Iran in un quadro mediorientale che nel complesso rimane molto complicata</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Si registra dunque un cambiamento minimo nell’approccio politico verso l’Iran da parte dell’amministrazione USA: dopo le aperture di Obama ad Ahmadinejad . Tale apertura è avvenuta dunque in minima parte anche per ragioni interne: i repubblicani avrebbe chiesto a Bush di avere un approccio meno duro anche per non lasciare l’impressione in vista delle elezioni che i democratici abbiano il monopolio dell’approccio diplomatico e che invece i repubblicani sappiano risolvere le questioni solo attraverso la guerra</p>

New York, 18 lug. (Apcom) - Il segretario di Stato di Washington, Condoleezza Rice, ha confermato ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="text">
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em><a href="http://alybabafaye.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/knin291l.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-373" src="http://alybabafaye.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/knin291l.jpg?w=266" alt="" width="266" height="300" /></a>New York, 18 lug. (Apcom) - Il segretario di Stato di Washington, Condoleezza Rice, ha confermato che gli Stati Uniti hanno cambiato atteggiamento nei confronti di Teheran, consentendo a una delegazione guidata da William Burns, il numero tre della diplomazia americana, di incontrare a Ginevra rappresentanti del regime degli Ayatollah domani. Ma Rice nega che sia in atto una svolta nella politica sul nodo delle ambizioni nucleari di Teheran, che continuano ad essere un ostacolo alla ripresa dei rapporti diplomatici tra i due Paesi. </em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em>Rice ha chiarito la posizione americana, rispondendo alle domande dei reporter il giorno dopo una altra mezza ammissione del governo sulla prossima riapertura di un ufficio di rappresentanza di Washington in Iran, dopo uno strappo diplomatico durato trent'anni. "Gli Stati Uniti - ha detto Rice - non hanno nemici permanenti", commentando il viaggio a Ginevra di Burns. "Speriamo che il messaggio che lanciamo a Teheran arrivi a destinazione, e cioè che noi siamo pienamente convinti che se l'Iran scegliesse la via del dialogo potrebbe migliorare i rapporti con la comunità internazionale". </em><em>Ma anche per il mondo è un messaggio chiaro, secondo Rice: "il nostro approccio è che occorre risolvere la crisi con lo strumento della diplomazia, e continueremo su questa strada". </em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em>A Ginevra Burns, parteciperà alla riunione del capo della diplomazia dell'Unione Europea Javier Solana, e delle delegazioni di Germania, Francia, Gran Bretagna, Cina e Russia con il negoziatore iraniano Said Jalili. Ma il punto fermo per Washington resta lo stesso, e cioè che la premessa è la rinuncia iraniana alle sue ambizioni nucleari. </em></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Mi vien da dire, magari fosse vero! Sarebbe una svolta positiva. La diplomazia preventiva al posto della guerra preventiva. Che sollievo! Poi tutti sanno che lo spauracchio dell'atomica iraniana è una buffala. L'Iran non ha nemmeno la tecnologia per fabbricare la bomba atomica di prima generazione. Poi al dire degli esperti dell'Agenzia Internazionale per l'Energia Atomica (AIEA) che hanno fatto molte ispezioni nelle centrali nucleari iraniane dicono si tratta di nucleare civile. Ma come si dice l'autorevolezza non te la danno gli altri!E forse non importa. Vi ricordate la storia delle armi di distruzione di massa di Saddam? E ancora il disastro si sta consumando sotto i nostri occhi! Peraltro un attacco all'Iran sarebbe ancora peggio nelle sue conseguenze. Un disastro non solo per gli USA ma per l'economia mondiale e per le relazioni internazionali. Dunque ben venga una svolta "diplomatica" degli USA. Questione di realismo!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by Felix Quigley</p>
<p>July 14, 2008</p>
<p>We on 4international take as our starting point the following:</p>
<p><strong><em>"<span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size:x-small;">Tuesday, too, the New York Times ran an article called “Nearer to the Bomb” by nuclear physicist Peter D. Zimmerman, former chief scientist of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He wrote that all of Iran’s activities, especially in uranium enrichment, are evidence that its “near-term ability to make nuclear weapons is gathering strength.”</span></span></span></span></em></strong></p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size:x-small;"><strong><em>He further warned that once Iran begins enriching uranium to weapons grade on an assembly-line basis, “it could transfer this material to groups such as Hizballah and Hamas.” They could then “fabricate low-technology nuclear explosives with yields nearly as high as the bomb which destroyed Hiroshima.”  "</em></strong></span></span></span></span></p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size:x-small;">This is the most serious question that we as Trotskyists face. Quite simply we will not stand by and allow Israel to be obliterated.</span></span></span></span></p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size:x-small;">We also believe that there is an alliance here between Islamofascist Iran and US Imperialism. This comes from a long period in which we studied how US Imperialism joined with Iranian Islamofascism in destroying Yugoslavia over 15 years. Please revisit our article which we published yesterday and which deals with the evidence of this alliance produced by the website DEBKAfile.com</span></span></span></span></p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><a href="http://4international.wordpress.com/2008/07/13/us-imperialism-joins-iran-to-tighten-the-noose-around-israel/">http://4international.wordpress.com/2008/07/13/us-imperialism-joins-iran-to-tighten-the-noose-around-israel/</a></span></span></span></p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;">And please along with that read a further analysis by DEBKAfile which they printed a couple of months ago.<!--more--></span></span></span></p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><strong><em>[begin April 13, 2008 analysis by DEBKAfile here]</em></strong></span></span></span></p>

<p><span lang="EN"></p>
<p class="arttitle">Washington Opens Diplomatic Door to Tehran</p>
<p class="subheadline"><strong>DEBKA<em>file</em></strong> Special Report</p>
<p> </p>
<p></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN"></span></p>
<p class="arttext">Certain prominent Americans have undertaken secret colloquy with Tehran and may be preparing to go public and make it official, with the administration’s blessing.</p>
<p class="arttext"><strong>DEBKA<em>file</em></strong><span class="fwanim_class">’s Washington sources name them as Thomas R. Pickering, former ambassador to <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Moscow</span>, the UN and Israel, William Luers, former envoy to Venezuela and the <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Czech Republic</span>, and Jim Walsh, a New York Republican Congressman.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">They have been quietly encouraged by Rice, defense secretary <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Robert Gates</span> and influential quarters in the US military and intelligence elite, who are anxious to avert a US-Iranian military clash in the eight months remaining to the Bush presidency and cut the ground from under a possible US or Israel attack on Iran. </span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">They hope direct dialogue with Tehran will act as the groundwork for an understanding between the next US president and Iran’s Mahmoud <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Ahmadinejad</span>. It is seen also as stealing some of the thunder from the Democratic candidate <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Barack Obama</span>’s offer to talk to the Iranians, and arm Republican candidate John McCain with a non-binding option on Iran for his campaign.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">The American undercover conversations with Iranian officials have been going on for some time in <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Geneva</span>, Switzerland, to explore common ground on Iran’s nuclear program. </span></p>
<p class="arttext">Last month, the three emissaries produced a working paper called “A Solution for the US-Iran Nuclear Standoff.”</p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">It proposed bringing Iran’s uranium enrichment program under a multinational consortium including Iran and other governments, such as <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">France</span> and <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Germany</span>, who would participate in managing and operating the program within Tehran. This would solve the US-Iranian nuclear standoff, ensure that Iran stops short of producing weapons-grade fuel and lift the threat of international sanctions. </span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">President <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Ahmadinejad</span> was quoted as endorsing the multilateral solution. Although his perception is likely to be different from an American or European version, the paper’s authors believe those differences could be resolved in negotiations. </span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">A serious setback to relations came from Tehran’s intervention in the Iraqi government’s crackdown this month on militias in the southern <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Basra</span> province and rocket attacks in <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Baghdad</span>. (</span><strong>DEBKA-Net-Weekly</strong><span class="fwanim_class"> 343 of April 4 published details). Iran’s position as the greatest threat to Iraq was highlighted by Iraq commander Gen. <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">David Petraeus</span> and Ambassador <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Ryan Crocker</span> in their testimony to <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Congress</span> last week - to the point that al <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Qaeda</span> scarcely rated a mention.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">President <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">George W</span>. Bush commented on April 11 that if Iran continues to help militias in Iraq “then we’ll deal with them.” But he also reaffirmed his disinclination for war and preference for diplomatic solutions. “You can’t solve these problems unilaterally. You’re going to need a multilateral forum,” he said.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">This testimony and the president’s remarks did not set to rest the Washington cliffhanger over whether the president will opt for military action against Iran after all, before he leaves the <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">White House</span>, or stick to quiet diplomacy and relegate the Iran nuclear headache to his successor. </span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">Bush’s immediate reaction confirmed the latter view: Without prior notice, he sent Petraeus and Crocker to Riyadh. Last week, there was talk of a limited US military action against the Iranian command centers directing, training and army Iraq’s militias. Now, the commander-in-chief was instructing the top Americans in Iraq to persuade the <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Saudis</span> to blaze the way for Arab rulers to throw their support behind the <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Maliki</span> government in <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Baghdad</span>. The object of this exercise was to offset rather than challenge Iranian influence in <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Baghdad</span>. </span></p>
<p class="arttext">A diplomatic, multilateral course appeared to have been set in motion for dealing with Iranian troublemaking in Iraq - if not its nuclear defiance.</p>
<p class="arttext">But the opposite signal came a day later in an interview the US president gave Bill Kristol, editor of the conservative Weekly Standard. The conclusion Kristol drew was that the hearing (given by Petraeus and Crocker) was “less an argument for getting out of Iraq than going into Iran.”</p>
<p class="arttext">Asked whether he thought there was a chance of Bush ordering a military strike against Iran before the end of his tenure, Kristol replied: “We didn’t really talk about that, in all honesty, directly. I don’t think it’s out of the question.”</p>
<p class="arttext">Clearly, President Bush is leaving everyone guessing up to the last second about which way he will jump.</p>
<p class="arttext">Diplomacy is meanwhile in motion – whether relevant or not to the president’s ultimate plans.</p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">The former US president Jimmy Carter’s plan to travel to <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Damascus</span> and meet Syrian president and <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Hamas</span> politburo leader Khalad Meshaal drew automatic reproof from the US State Department and Secretary Condoleezza Rice. He began his trip in Israel Sunday, April 13, before heading for Syria.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">However, the 84-year old Carter’s <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Damascus</span> venture could fit in with the <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">White House</span>’s broader “multilateral” strategy with regard to Iran. His own party, the Democrats, frown on it. <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Barack Obama</span>, who is ready to talk to Iran, said sternly Saturday, April 12: “I would not meet with <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Hamas</span> unless it recognized Israel, renounced terror and abided by previous agreements. I don’t think conversation with them is useful.” </span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">He thus lined up with the Bush administration and the official line of the <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Middle East Quartet</span> line on the Palestinian terrorist group.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">Carter, however, appears to be going with the Bush flow: Is he beating a path to Iran’s allies and proxies, Syria, <span style="border-right:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-top:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-left:#0000ff 0 dashed;border-bottom:#0000ff 1px dashed;">Hamas</span>, and even Hizballah, to generate an amicable environment for administration diplomats to forge an understanding between Washington and Tehran? Or striking out on his own.</span></p>

<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">All of the above is necessarily very complex.</span></p>
<p class="arttext"><span class="fwanim_class">We learned in Yugoslavia that US Imperialism is extremely <strong>devious</strong>. There are many, many different leads and false trails.</span></p>

<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-size:small;"></span></span></p>
<p>Do the Jews of Israel really understand what the situation is and how little time they have left?</p>
<p>Perhaps they are so pulverized by the weight of world antisemitism that thjey find it difficult to act. If so then there is a huge responsibility on we as socialist revolutionaries and on principled Jewish and other principled people <strong><em>outside Israel</em></strong> to act.</p>
<p>When we on 4international raised some of these issues a Jewish person called Yamit82 who lives in Israel and writes on Israpundit waded into us with a <strong>Stalinist type attack</strong> on Trotsky and on us as Trotskyists and he proposed that it was better to wait, do nothing, and see what develops.</p>
<p>The article that I am looking at from Peter Zimmerman is on International Herald of July 7, 2008. This is July 13 2008. Should this article or at least its highlights not be splashed across every Jewish American and European blog.</p>
<p>Why does Yamit82 not write about this and instead of stating that he is glad that Trotsky was assasinated by a Stalinist thug in 1940! Is there not a sickness involved here!</p>
<p> </p>
<p></span></p>
<p>I am no scientific expert but I note from the description given to Zimmerman by DEBKAfile <strong><em>(</em></strong><span style="font-size:x-small;font-family:Times New Roman;"><strong><em>nuclear physicist Peter D. Zimmerman, former chief scientist of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee)</em></strong> </span>that he is indeed an expert.</p>
<p class="arttext" style="margin:auto 0;">This should be taken most seriously because the Jews of Israel have got little time left to act.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Les forces navales du Corps des gardiens de la Révolution islamique ont testé avec succès le missile sous marine le plus rapide du monde. Ce missile baptisé "Houte" qui n'a pas d'équivalent étranger se déplace à une vitesse égale à 100 mètres par second. Il est ainsi capable d'atteindre tout type de bâtiment de guerre, du plus performant au plus élémentaire. Après le tir réussi de 9 missiles de longue et moyenne portée mercredi et jeudi, ce nouveau succès consacre l'incontestable capacité défensive de l'Iran. Les forces du corps des Gardiens de la Révolution islamique participent en ce moment même à une série de manœuvres militaires baptisés Le Grand Prophète.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:left;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:'Times New Roman', 'serif';">Alcuni ufficiali della Polizia di Teheran hanno torturato una coppia di neo-convertiti, minacciandoli di affidare la loro figlia malata di quattro anni ad un istituto. I due erano stati arrestati per aver tenuto studi biblici e culti nella loro casa. Una fonte cristiana in Iran ha dichiarato che la ventottenne Tina Rad è stata accusata di “attività contro la sacra religione dell’Islam”, per aver letto la Bibbia a persone musulmane e quindi di aver cercato di convertirle nella sua casa, ad est di Teheran. Il marito, il trentunenne Makan Arya, è stato accusato di “attività contro la sicurezza nazionale”. Entrambi sono stati prelevati con la forza dalla loro abitazione, lasciando la figlia di 4 anni malata e incustodita, e sono stati rinchiusi in un carcere non ben identificato per 4 giorni, dal quale ne sono usciti contusi e pieni di lividi evidenti. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:'Times New Roman', 'serif';">La cauzione richiesta per Tina Rad è stata di 30.000 dollari, mentre quella per il marito è stata di 20.000 dollari. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:'Times New Roman', 'serif';">La donna è stata così minacciata da un ufficiale di Polizia: “La prossima volta sarete accusati di apostasia se non la smettete con il<a title="gesù ti ama" href="http://www.gesutiama.com" target="_self"> vostro Gesù</a>”. </span></p>

<p class="xtesto_notizie" style="text-align:justify;"><strong></strong>Le forze armate iraniane hanno effettuato oggi 10 Luglio 2008 un nuovo test missilistico nel Golfo, nel terzo giorno di manovre militari che hanno accresciuto la tensione fra Teheran e i Paesi occidentali. Lo riferisce il sito internet della televisione di Stato iraniana.</p>
<div class="testo_articolo_dimensione" style="text-align:justify;">
<p class="xtesto_notizie">Quello di oggi è il secondo test missilistico nell'arco di 1 giorno effettuato dai <strong></strong> Guardiani della rivoluzione, corpo militare d’elite che avevano già lanciato nove razzi a lungo e a medio raggio, tra cui un "nuovo" Shahab 3 in grado di viaggiare per oltre 2.000 chilometri e colpire Israele e le basi statunitense nella regione mediorientale. I lanci sono stati effettuati nel Golfo Persico e nello Stretto di Hormuz.</p>
<p class="xtesto_notizie" style="text-align:justify;">La risposta della Casa Bianca che condanna fermamente questi test, ritiene la produzione di missili balistici una "violazione" delle risoluzioni dell' Onu. Israele di contro presenterà Eitam, un aereo spia equipaggiato di sofisticatissimi sistemi di raccolta dati e immagioni, in grado di arrivare anche oltre l' Iran: con questo Israele mette in guardia l' Iran.<br />
I tempi non sono dei migliori, la vera paura è quella di imboccare un'escalation militare senza precedenti, o solo una mossa politica per far alzare il prezzo del Petrolio da parte degli iraniani? Speriamo sempre nel male minore.....</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://uranium235.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/iran_privatization.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-167" style="border:0 none;" src="http://uranium235.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/iran_privatization.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="80" /></a></p>
<p>La noticia ha dejado a más de un analista perplejo: Irán se abre a la inversión extranjera, al más puro estilo neoliberal. ¿Significa esto que las brutales sanciones internacionales y las amenazas de guerra por parte de EEUU, Israel y Francia están haciendo mella en el orgulloso gobierno iraní? ¿Es que finalmente la indómita nación persa entregará su riqueza económica a multinacionales occidentales sin necesidad de que la bombardeen?</p>
<p>Con el precio del crudo a 140 dólares el barril, y subiendo, no parece que Irán esté bajo una camisa de fuerza financiera como es el caso de la mayoría de los países en vía de desarrollo –sobreendeudados-, que están obligados por sus acreedores a vender sus activos nacionales para pagar una creciente deuda externa. Entonces, ¿qué resortes políticos impulsan esta sorprendente medida? ¿Y por qué ahora?</p>
<p>Según el canadiense M. Chossudovsky, profesor de economía, esta aparente apertura a los intereses occidentales es una jugada estratégica de Irán para buscar aliados en su pulso a muerte con EEUU.<!--more--></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>El programa iraní</strong></span></p>
<p>Si bien el programa de privatizaciones iraní se inició durante el gobierno de Muhammad Jatami, a finales de los 90, la reciente salida a la venta de acciones en las principales empresas estatales de Irán, apunta a un nuevo plan. La medida es de largo alcance y va más allá de las privatizaciones aplicadas en los países que pertenecen a la esfera de influencia estadounidense: la medida está ideada para atraer la máxima inversión extranjera y forma parte de un radical programa de liberalización económica iraní.</p>
<p>Teherán permitirá a inversores extranjeros la compra ilimitada de acciones de empresas estatales en proceso de privatización, siempre y cuando el conjunto de la propiedad extranjera en un determinado sector industrial no exceda del 35%. Entre otros nuevos incentivos está el que las empresas extranjeras también podrán transferir sus beneficios anuales fuera de Irán en cualquier moneda que deseen. Varias empresas occidentales ya se han mostrado interesadas...</p>
<p>Es importante analizar detenidamente esta decisión iraní. El momento del anuncio de la <strong>Iranian Privatization Organization (IPO)</strong> coincide con nuevas sanciones internacionales contra Irán y nuevas filtraciones a la prensa sobre un posible ataque militar –bien estadounidense, bien israelí- contra el país.</p>
<p>Por otra parte, el<strong> Fondo Monetario Internacional (FMI)</strong> ha confirmado, con ciertas reservas, que Teherán ha iniciado la transición hacia una economía de mercado, lo que exige la simultánea aceleración del programa de privatizaciones con el fin de generar confianza en los inversores (2). Así, en su revisión del pasado mes de mayo (3) el FMI elogió a Teherán por su programa, que básicamente transfiere la propiedad de bienes del Estado a manos privadas, al tiempo que subrayó que se está llevando a cabo en una forma rápida y eficiente.</p>
<p>Todos sabemos que las instituciones nacidas de Bretton Woods sirven directamente a los intereses de EEUU, no sólo por su evidentes conexiones con Wall Street y con el Departamento del Tesoro estadounidense, sino también con el Departamento de Estado, el Pentágono y la OTAN. El FMI y el Banco Mundial suelen ser consultados antes de emprender una guerra y, al término de la misma, aparecen para ofrecer sus préstamos "post conflict reconstruction".</p>
<p>Las privatizaciones sugieren que Irán está dispuesto a permitir que el capital extranjero participe e incluso se haga con el control de importantes sectores clave de la economía iraní. De hecho, según el presidente de la IPO, Gholamreza Kord-Zanganeh, unas 230 empresas estatales habrán sido privatizadas para marzo de 2009 (finales del año iraní). Las acciones de unas 177 empresas estatales ya salieron a la venta en la  <strong>Bolsa de Valores de Teherán (Tehran Stock Exchange, TSE)</strong> en marzo de 2008.</p>
<p>La estatal <strong>Compañía de Telecomunicaciones de Irán (Telecommunication Company of Iran, TCI)</strong> ha indicado que algunas compañías extranjeras de telecomunicaciones han expresado ya su interés en adquirir sus acciones cuando el gobierno las saque a  la venta el próximo mes. La prensa iraní no ha dado los nombres de los posibles inversores.  La TCI tiene el monopolio en el Irán del mercado telefonía fija y es también el mayor operador de telefonía móvil a través de su filial <strong>MCI</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Alcatel </strong>de Francia, el grupo <strong>MTN </strong>de Sudáfrica y <strong>Siemens </strong>de Alemania ya tienen importantes intereses en la industria iraní de las telecomunicaciones. Otros sectores clave de la economía iraní, incluyendo las industrias del aluminio, del cobre, del hierro y del acero, han entrado recientemente en proceso de privatización, con acciones de empresas estatales a la venta en la TSE.</p>
<p><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Washington prefiere la guerra</strong></span></p>
<p>Sin embargo, Washington no tiene el menor interés en la aplicación de un programa de privatizaciones en Irán. Y menos como una alternativa a la guerra (que se está librando ya en el plano económico y financiero). De hecho, busca todo lo contrario. Hay indicios de que el principal objetivo del gobierno estadounidense respecto a Irán, ahora, es detener ese programa de privatizaciones.</p>
<p>En efecto, en lugar de ser aplaudido por Washington como un paso en la dirección "correcta", el programa de privatizaciones de Teherán coincide con la puesta en marcha de una amplia resolución en el Congreso de EEUU -<strong>Resolución 362</strong>-, que insta al presidente George W. Bush no sólo a que obligue a todos los países a aplicar sanciones financieras contra Irán, sino a que presione a todos los países <strong>para que se prohiba la exportación a Irán de todos los productos refinados del petróleo, que se impongan estrictas inspecciones a todas las personas y a todos los coches, barcos, aviones, trenes -carga incluida- que entren o salgan de Irán, y que se prohíba la circulación internacional de todos los funcionarios iraníes que no participan en la negociación para la suspensión del programa nuclear iraní</strong> (4).</p>
<p>Estas sanciones económicas ampliadas y endurecidas pretenden paralizar el comercio y las transacciones monetarias de Irán, pero también paralizarán su programa de privatizaciones y la transferencia de activos del estado iraní a manos extranjeras.</p>
<p>¿Por qué la administración Bush se opone a la aplicación de un programa de privatización de estilo neoliberal que sustraerá de la República Islámica de Irán algunos de sus activos más rentables? Si la "conquista económica" era el objetivo último de sus campañas militares en la región, ¿cuál es entonces el motivo para insistir en bombardear Irán –o estrangularlo económicamente, que es lo mismo, o sea, un acto de guerra-, cuando estamos viendo que el gobierno iraní acepta entregar sus bienes a bajo precio a inversores extranjeros, como han hecho antes otros países en vías de desarrollo?</p>
<p>He aquí la clave para entenderlo todo: <strong>los mayores inversores extranjeros en Irán son China y Rusia.</strong></p>
<p>Mientras que las empresas de EEUU están notoriamente ausentes de la lista de inversores extranjeros directos, Alemania, Italia y Japón tienen importantes intereses de inversión en petróleo y gas, la industria petroquímica, la generación de energía y la construcción, así como en la banca. Y son, junto con China y Rusia, los principales beneficiarios del programa de privatizaciones.</p>
<p>Uno de los principales objetivos de la <strong>Resolución 362</strong> es evitar que las empresas extranjeras -incluidas las de la Unión Europea y Japón- adquieran una mayor participación en la economía iraní como les ofrece el programa de privatización de Teherán.</p>
<p>Otros países con importantes intereses de inversión en Irán son Francia, India, Noruega, Corea del Sur, Suecia y Suiza. La sueca <strong>Svedala Industri</strong> tiene importantes intereses en las minas de cobre de Irán. Francia, Japón y Corea tienen intereses en la industria del automóvil, en la forma de acuerdos de licencia con fabricantes de automóviles iraníes. La petrolera italiana <strong>ENI</strong> invierte en el desarrollo de las fases 4 y 5 del campo petrolífero South Pars, las cuales ascienden a 3,8 mil millones de dólares (5). La francesa <strong>Total </strong>y el grupo anglo-holandés <strong>Shell </strong>están involucrados en el gas natural.</p>
<p>Si bien el proceso de privatización no permite la venta de la compañía petrolera estatal, se crea un entorno que favorece la inversión extranjera de una serie de países, entre ellos China, Rusia, Italia, Malasia, etc., en refinerías de petróleo, industrias petroquímicas, infraestructuras para la exploración, oleoductos, gasoductos, y otros servicios relacionados.</p>
<p>Aunque varias empresas de EEUU llevan a cabo negocios -de manera extraoficial, claro- en Irán, el régimen de sanciones comerciales (renovado y endurecido con la administración Bush) prohíbe a los ciudadanos y las empresas estadounidenses hacer negocios en Irán. En otras palabras, las empresas de EEUU no pueden adquirir activos del estado iraní, a menos que las sanciones comerciales se levanten. Y aunque pudieran, no tendrían un trato preferencial, como ha ocurrido en el Irak devastado por la guerra, donde la propiedad y el control de sectores enteros de la economía nacional pasaron, por pura y simple transferencia, a un puñado de empresas estadounidenses: el programa iraní asegura que todas las empresas extranjeras serán tratadas en pie de igualdad.</p>
<p>En definitiva, el programa de privatizaciones de Teherán no sirve a los intereses económicos y estratégicos de EEUU, sino que faverece, más bien, a los países que mantienen desde hace mucho tiempo relaciones comerciales y de inversión con la  República Islámica. Favorece a inversores chinos, rusos, europeos y japoneses, y deja fuera a los estadounidenses. En consecuencia, debilita la hegemonía americana, actúa contra los planes de Washington de construir un mundo unipolar mediante el recurso a la fuerza militar o económica.</p>
<p>Y es por eso que Washington quiere reventar este programa presionando a todo el mundo para que se apliquen sanciones económicas cada vez más duras contra Irán, no tanto para “impedir que fabrique bombas nucleares”, sino para paralizar el comercio, las inversiones y los flujos monetarios con Irán. Las sanciones económicas propuestas por la <strong>Resolución 362</strong> pretende estrangular económicamente a Irán y evitar la transferencia de los activos iraníes a manos de potencias económicas rivales como son –o podrían serlo- China, Rusia, la Unión  Europea y Japón.</p>
<p>Del mismo modo que la guerra contra Irak fue fundamentalmente para que ni Rusia, ni China ni la Unión Europea se beneficiaran del país, a expensas de EEUU, la actual guerra económica contra Irán es fundamentalmente para lo mismo. El problema es que si en 2003 teníamos a Putin, Chirac y Schoeder oponiéndose a los planes de Washington, hoy los ciudadanos europeos estamos prácticamente solos.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">Irán realizó con éxito el lanzamiento de un nuevo misil de largo alcance, denominado Shabab-3, como parte del ejercicio militar Gran Profeta III, informó hoy la televisión estatal.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span class="edpNoticiaContenido">Según el reporte, la prueba la hizo la división aérea de los Guardianes de la Revolución Islámica, un cuerpo armado de élite dentro del sistema defensivo del país persa.</span></p>
<p><!--more-->El artefacto posee un rango de efectividad de hasta dos mil kilómetros, distancia dentro de la cual se ubica el territorio de Israel, principal enemigo de Teherán en tanto es el más fuerte aliado de Estados Unidos en la zona.</p>
<p>Otros dos misiles de corto alcance fueron disparados en un lugar no revelado del desierto, como parte del mencionado ejercicio.</p>
<p>"Estamos listos para defender la integridad de la nación iraní", afirmó el jefe de la Fuerza Aérea de los Guardianes de la Revolución, Hossein Salami.</p>
<p>El gobierno llamó a sus Fuerzas Armadas y demás estructuras de defensa a mantenerse en alta disposición combativa para hacer frente a una eventual agresión militar de Estados Unidos e Israel.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Washington y Tel Aviv han lanzado recientemente amenazas contra el Ejecutivo del presidente Mahmoud Admadinejad, como parte de las presiones para que renuncie al enriquecimiento de uranio y a desarrollar la tecnología nuclear.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stando a quanti riportato <a href="http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1000454.html" target="_blank">dal quotidiano israeliano Haaretz</a> l'Iran ha lanciato nove missili di lungo e medio raggio Shahab 3, di cui uno aveva la potenza necessaria per raggiungere Israele e le basi militari statunitensi nella regione. L'esercitazione, avvenuta nel deserto, è stata fatta a scopo dimostrativo. "Siamo pronti a difendere la nazione iraniana", ha dichiarato Hossein Salami, il comandante dell'aeronautica dei Guardiani della rivoluzione. L'Iran ha già lanciato diversi missili di questo tipo ma quest'ultima esercitazione avviene mentre cresce la tensione con Stati Uniti e Israele sul programma nucleare.</p>

C'est dire si on ne risquait vraiment rien.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-841 aligncenter" src="http://abcdetc.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/centrale-sans-danger1.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://www.dissident-media.org/infonucleaire/special_tcherno.html" target="_blank">Comme d'habitude</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">L'incident était d'ailleurs tellement bénin, que ce n'est que <a href="http://www.sortirdunucleaire.org/actualites/communiques/affiche.php?aff=409" target="_blank"><em>«douze heures après l'accident  que les populations ont commencé à être informées»</em>, comme le signale le Réseau sortir du nucléaire.</a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Mais c'est bien connu, les antinucléaires sont des chipoteurs, comme tous <a href="http://www.infosdelaplanete.org/4100/lanceurs-d-alertes.html" target="_blank">les "lanceurs d'alerte" (ainsi que les désignent Jacques Testart)</a> qui ne connaissent rien à la technique, ne comprennent rien au progrès, à la croissance et à l'avenir radieux du nucléaire.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">C'est vrai que le <a href="http://www.dossiersdunet.com/spip.php?article1000" target="_blank">nucléaire est tellement compatible avec le développement durable et tellement bon pour l'environnement qu'il avait été dispensé du Grenelle du même nom</a>. C'est  vrai qu'il est notre avenir énergétique <a href="http://www.ena.fr/index.php?page=ressources/rapports/energie/avenir_nucleaire" target="_blank">comme on l'apprend à l'ENA par exemple</a>, même si, avec ses risques pas toujours maîtrisés et ses déchets pour des milliers d'années, il fait un peu tâche dans le paysage. Mais si ça se trouve un de nos descendants saura utiliser nos déchets radioactifs pour faire rouler sa mobylette. Le veinard ! On espère qu'il pensera à nous remercier.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Et puis le nucléaire, ça rapporte.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Entre 1,5 et 3 milliards d'euros la centrale, on comprend que le lobby  nucléaire (<a href="http://stop-epr.blogspot.com/2007/07/le-lobby-de-sarko.html" target="_blank">Areva, Alstom, Bouygues</a>…) se démène pour construire encore et encore.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Coûte que coûte.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Et vaille que vaille.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Et même si <a href="http://www.lemoniteur.fr/actualite/entreprises_btp/le_coulage_beton_epr_flamanville/DD1D869F3.htm" target="_blank">le béton du premier réacteur EPR montre des signes inquiétants</a>, c'est pas un détail pareil qui va nous empêcher d'en construire un deuxième.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">C'est <a href="http://bourgogne-franche-comte.france3.fr/info/44631893-fr.php" target="_blank">Sarkozy qui l'a dit lors de sa visite chez Anne Lauvergeon et Areva au Creusot jeudi dernier</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Et quand Sarkozy l'a dit, c'est comme si c'était fait. C'est comme ça que ça marche maintenant, dans ce grand pays démocratique que le monde nous envie.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Comme le monde entier envie d'ailleurs nos centrales. Et ça tombe bien. <a href="http://tempsreel.nouvelobs.com/speciales/autour_du_grenelle_de_lenvironnement/20070925.OBS6355/nucleaire_civil__sarkozy_declenchela_colere_des_ecologi.html" target="_blank">Sarkozy l'a dit aussi. Des centrales, il veut en vendre partout</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Même si ça plaît pas aux écologistes qui n'ont encore pas compris depuis tout à l'heure.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Les lanceurs d'alerte qui disent que quand tu vois les routes en Inde, tu crains pour l'entretien des futures centrales qu'on veut leur fourguer ou que <span>Mouammar Kadhafi n'est pas complètement fiable pour avoir confiance concernant l'usage qu'il pourrait faire des siennes.</span></p>
<p>Mais ce serait vraiment dommage que les lanceurs d'alerte occidentaux viennent gâcher la fête commerciale.</p>
<p>Ou que <a href="http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5jPZ7xB5lj_JyIB9Y1JcQZvZ_BRWQ" target="_blank">les lanceurs de missile iraniens en rajoutent à leur tour dans la crise</a>…</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">PS : A noter le numéro de <a href="http://www.politis.fr" target="_blank"><em>Politis</em></a> de ce jeudi, consacré à… <em>l'illusion nucléaire</em> (c'est chez eux que j'ai piqué la deuxième image de ce billet). Sacré coïncidence!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Omid Nouripour hat den Roman "Softcore" des Deutsch-Iraners Tirdad Zolghadr gelesen. Er ist in dem Buch einem psychedelisch schillernden Psychogramm der iranischen Oberschicht <a href="http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/literatur/0,1518,557334,00.html">begegnet </a>und stellt fest, die Teheraner-Oberschicht ist genauso dekadent wie jede andere dieser Art.</p>
<blockquote><p>"In "Softcore" beschreibt der Protagonist sein sporadisch geführtes Engagement für eine Galerie. Ihn treibt dabei aber nicht etwa sein Kampf für die Kunstfreiheit an, sondern eher seine dominante, wohlhabende Freundin Stella. Diese ostentativ postmoderne Lebensweise wird ihm allerdings in der politisch-explosiven Atmosphäre des Iran zum Verhängnis. Tirdad wird verhaftet, weil er einen Blumenladen filmt, er gerät in Machenschaften, die er nicht versteht, er ist ferngesteuert und überfordert und redet sich dabei ein, er würde die Welt überfordern. Die Hybris des Bohemiens in Teheran ist also eigentlich genau dieselbe wie an den anderen Orten der Handlung, seien sie Lagos, Beirut, Hamburg oder Zürich auch. Diese Grundhaltung aber ist in Teheran tödlich."</p></blockquote>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Secondo la Abc News, che avrebbe come fonte un ufficiale di alto grado del Pentagono, <a href="http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/997920.html" target="_blank">è sempre più probabile un attacco all'Iran da parte di Israele.</a> I fattori scatenanti potrebbero essere due: l'eventuale produzione dell'uranio sufficiente a costruire una bomba nucleare, e la messa in opera da parte di Teheran del sistema di difesa aerea appena acquistato dai russi. Washington teme, inoltre, che l'attacco avvenga prima delle elezioni presidenziali di novembre</p>
<p>Nel frattempo  dall'Iran giungono segnali di disgelo. In un'intervista al quotidiano Jomhuriye Eslami, riportata anche da<a href="http://www.liberation.fr/actualite/monde/336305.FR.php" target="_blank"> Liberation</a>, Ali Akbar Velayati, consigliere diplomatico dell'ayatollah Khamenei, Guida suprema dell'Iran ( la massima autorità della repubblica,) ha detto che le provocazioni sono dannose alla causa di Teheran. Alcuni analisti vi hanno visto una presa di distanza dalle posizioni di ahmdinejad e un primo passo dell'autorità religiosa volto a scaricare l'attuale presidente iraniano.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Source: Bloomberg &#124; By Bill Varner</p>
<p>Iran's Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki has announced his country's bid for a seat on the United Nations Security Council, a candidacy that U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad immediately rejected.<br />
<!--more--><br />
Mottaki told envoys at a meeting of the group of 57 Islamic nations that Iran would seek the seat that will become open when Indonesia's two-year term ends on Dec. 31, according to diplomats who attended the closed session. Iran would compete with Japan, the only other declared candidate for a seat that is designated for an Asian nation. </p>
<p>"They have not been on the Security Council for 50 years,'' said Ambassador Munir Akram of Pakistan, who chaired the meeting of the Organization of the Islamic Conference. "It is by standards of equity and the principal of rotation that they would have a legitimate chance.'' </p>
<p>Iran hasn't held one of the 10 non-permanent seats on the 15-member panel since 1955-56, the only time the Islamic republic has been a member of the UN's principal policy making panel. Japan last held a council seat in 2005 and 2006. </p>
<p>U.S. opposition would be based on the unwritten rule at the UN that nations under Security Council sanctions aren't elected to the panel. The council has adopted three resolutions imposing sanctions on Iran over its refusal to suspend uranium enrichment as part of its nuclear program. </p>
<p>"For a country that is under sanctions and is not in compliance with the requirements that the international community has repeatedly asked of it, it is surprising that it would believe that it could become a Security Council member,'' Khalilzad said. "That would be extraordinarily strange for Iran in the current circumstances.'' </p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="blkin10">Iran's parliament is set to debate a draft bill which could see the death penalty used for those deemed to promote corruption, prostitution and apostasy on the Internet, reports said on Wednesday.</p>
<p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">MPs on Wednesday voted to discuss as a priority the draft bill which seeks to "toughen punishment for harming mental security in society," the ISNA news agency said.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">The text lists a wide range of crimes such rape and armed robbery for which the death penalty is already applicable. The crime of apostasy (the act of leaving a religion, in this case Islam) is also already punishable by death.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">However, the draft bill also includes "establishing weblogs and sites promoting corruption, prostitution and apostasy", which is a new addition to crimes punishable by death.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">Those convicted of these crimes "should be punished as "mohareb' (enemy of God) and "corrupt on the earth'," the text says.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">Under Iranian law the standard punishments for these two crimes are "hanging, amputation of the right hand and then the left foot as well as exile."</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">The bill -- which is yet to be debated by lawmakers -- also stipulates that the punishment handed out in these cases "cannot be commuted, suspended or changed".</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">Internet is widely used in Iran despite restrictions on access and the blocking of thousands of websites with a sexual content or deemed as insulting religious sanctities and promoting political dissent.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">Blogging is also very popular among cyber-savvy young Iranians, some openly discussing their private lives or criticising the system.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">Human rights groups have accused Iran of making excessive use of the death penalty but Teheran insists it is an effective deterrent that is carried out only after an exhaustive judicial process.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">The number of executions soared last year to 317 amid a campaign which the authorities said was aimed at improving security in society, and was sharply up on 2006 figures when Amnesty International recorded 177 executions.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText" style="line-height:normal;margin:12pt 0;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';">All legislation in Iran has to be rubber-stamped by a conservative clerical watchdog before it is written into law. The Guardians Council vets bills to see if they are in line with the constitution and Islamic law.</span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Liputan6.com, Teheran:</strong> Gedung berlantai tujuh runtuh di Teheran, Iran, Senin (30/6) pagi waktu setempat. Paling tidak 19 buruh yang tinggal di dalam gedung tersebut tewas tertimbun reruntuhan. Gedung tua itu terletak di Distrik Saadat Abad, sebelah utara Kota Teheran.</p>
<p>Struktur bangunan tersebut memang sangat rapuh. Namun, para pekerja yang tinggal di gedung itu menolak untuk pindah. Mereka tinggal di dalam apartemen untuk melepas pintu dan kaca jendela karena gedung ini akan dirobohkan.</p>
<p>Hingga saat ini seorang pekerja belum diketahui nasibnya. Belum diketahui secara pasti ia berada di lokasi saat kejadian itu berlangsung atau tidak. Tim penyelamat terus mencari korban di tengah reruntuhan gedung.</p>
<p>Polisi telah menahan lima orang, termasuk pemilik gedung dan kontraktor yang dianggap bertanggung jawab atas insiden ini. Kendati jarang terjadi gedung runtuh, iran terkenal dengan bangunannya yang tua dan berstruktur kurang kuat.(ANS)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Le chef des Gardiens de la Révolution n'a pas hésité à menacer d'utiliser l'arme du pétrole en cas d'attaque contre les sites nucléaires iraniens. « <em>Lorsqu'un pays est attaqué, il est naturel qu'il ait recours à toutes ses capacités contre l'ennemi et notre contrôle du Golfe persique et du Détroit d'Ormuz en font clairement partie</em> », a déclaré le général Mohammad Ali Jafari. Il a ajouté qu'un éventuel conflit armé ferait monter les prix du pétrole, ce qui dissuaderait, selon lui, les ennemis d'attaquer le pays.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">L'Iran est le second pays producteur de l'Opep. De même, 40% du pétrole mondial transite par le Détroit d'Ormuz. C'est la première fois qu'un haut responsable militaire iranien menace aussi clairement d'utiliser l'arme du pétrole. Ce qui signifie que les dirigeants iraniens prennent au sérieux les menaces israéliennes contre les installations nucléaires du pays.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Le dossier du nucléaire iranien est loin d’être clos. Il y a deux semaines, La Grande Époque publiait un article spéculant sur l’éventualité de frappes militaires contre l’Iran. À cette étape, les déclarations d’officiels de l’État hébreu et de la république islamique, puis les rencontres au sommet entre responsables israéliens et américains, tissaient une toile d’indicateurs suggérant un passage plus près de la menace à l’acte. La tension a augmenté d’un cran la semaine dernière lorsqu’un média américain a révélé qu’Israël avait effectué un exercice militaire de grande envergure, simulant très possiblement une attaque contre l’Iran.</p>
<p>Le New York Times a fait paraître la nouvelle le 20 juin. Selon des responsables du Pentagone, interrogés par le quotidien, l’exercice n’indiquerait pas qu’Israël ait décidé de lancer une frappe contre l’Iran ou qu’un tel acte soit imminent. Les propos des individus, s’exprimant sous le couvert de l’anonymat, étaient néanmoins clairs concernant la cible.</p>
<p>Le gouvernement israélien n’a pas confirmé la tenue d’un tel exercice.</p>
<p>Une centaine d’avions de chasse F-15 et F-16 auraient effectué des manœuvres au-dessus de la Méditerranée au début du mois de juin, parcourant des distances équivalentes à celles nécessaires pour faire le trajet entre Israël et l’Iran.<br />
Une sorte de «diplomatie des avions de chasse», si on veut. Sanctions et menaces, ces dernières années, n’ont rien fait pour faire fléchir la volonté de Téhéran. </p>
<p>Selon une des sources du New York Times, le message ne devait pas être envoyé seulement à l’Iran, mais aux autres puissances également pour démontrer qu’Israël n’entend pas plaisanter. «Ils voulaient que nous le sachions, ils voulaient que les Européens le sachent, et ils voulaient que les Iraniens le sachent [...] Beaucoup de signaux sont émis à divers niveaux.»</p>
<p>Mais selon certains experts et responsables israéliens, la capacité militaire de l’État hébreu ne serait pas assez grande pour porter un coup fatal au programme nucléaire iranien. Selon des spécialistes interrogés par l’agence Reuters, 1000 frappes pourraient être nécessaires pour accomplir ce but.</p>
<p>«Cent avions de guerre sont suffisants pour un raid, mais pas assez pour une campagne aérienne, et c’est ce qui est nécessaire pour s’occuper efficacement des capacités nucléaires de l’Iran», estime un responsable cité par Reuters.</p>
<p>Le régime iranien a réagi promptement à ce dernier développement. «Cela confirme le point de vue de la République islamique d’Iran que [Israël] est un dangereux régime et un obstacle à la paix et au calme dans la région et le monde», a déclaré le porte-parole de Téhéran, Gholamhossein Elham.</p>
<p>Quant aux mesures incitatives proposées à Téhéran par les puissances mondiales visant à geler son enrichissement d’uranium, elles ont été essentiellement balayées du revers de la main. «La République islamique d'Iran poursuit sans relâche l'enrichissement», a déclaré à la radio-télévision nationale Ali Asghar Soltanieh, représentant de l'Iran à l'Agence internationale de l'Énergie atomique (AIEA).</p>
<p>L’Iran possèderait actuellement environ 3000 centrifugeuses, soit dix fois plus qu’il y a deux ans, l’élément essentiel à l’enrichissement et pouvant produire la substance nécessaire à la construction d’armes nucléaires. Téhéran insiste que son programme a seulement des visées civiles.</p>
<p>Le directeur-général de l’AIEA, Mohamed ElBaradeï, a pour sa part indiqué qu’il quitterait son poste advenant une frappe contre l’Iran. «Je ne pense pas que ce que je vois aujourd'hui en Iran, ce soit un danger actuel, grave et pressant. Si une attaque militaire était opérée contre l'Iran en ce moment [...] cela me mettrait dans l'impossibilité de poursuivre ma tâche», a-t-il déclaré dans une entrevue à la chaîne Al Arabiya. </p>
<p>Selon M. ElBaradeï, une opération militaire contre l’Iran «serait la pire des choses [...] Elle transformerait la région en une boule de feu».</p>
<p>«En cas de frappe militaire, cela signifiera que l'Iran, s'il ne fabrique déjà des armes nucléaires, se lancera dans une course intensive pour produire des armes nucléaires avec la bénédiction de tous les Iraniens, y compris ceux de la diaspora», a-t-il ajouté.</p>
<p>Le candidat démocrate à la Maison-Blanche, Barack Obama, a de son côté affirmé qu’Israël était en droit de se préparer à contrer la menace iranienne. Le président iranien, Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, a déclaré à plusieurs reprises qu’Israël devait être «rayé de la carte».</p>
<p>«Et il ne fait par conséquent aucun doute que l'Iran représente une menace extraordinaire pour Israël et qu'Israël a toujours raison de prendre des décisions assurant sa sécurité», estime Obama.</p>

Seduta in metro, assorta in una lettura che mi ha catapultato nella Teheran della rivoluzione Khomeinista. Una musica improvvisa mi riporta alla realtà...<br />
Qualcuno sa spiegarmi perchè i rom che si arrangiano a strimpellare in metro suonano Nino D'Angelo??</p>
