In keeping with usual prectice, the police of the Islamo-Fascist Iranian state attacked women who were gathering to celebrate International Women's Day. In Dublin we dealt with their Catholic equivalents at the fake clinic. Sadly in Iran Clerical Fascists won the day. Security forces arrested 33 women's rights activists on Sunday outside a Tehran court, where five other women detained in June had gone on trial. Most of them were released on Wednesday. Sunday's protesters were demanding a fair trial for the five women, charged for "acting against national security" after taking part in an "unauthorised" rally to demand equal legal rights for women in the Islamic Republic. |
