Neda’s Grave
By John Batchelor on July 29, 2009 at 1:30 PM in Current Affairs
We have this from resistance.
The first weeks after the murder, the regime prevented mourners from reaching Neda Soltan’s grave. There looks to have been a change now. A policy change? Or weakening in police controls? The Basiji who killed Neda and covered up the crime look to be be in retreat or perhaps just exhausted by the weeks of turmoil.
There are lesser candidates, one of whom is backed by HRC and James Carville. In sum, the election in Afghanistan will be a mess of US influence peddling and Iran vote-buying and Karzai ballot stuffing. Expect claims and counterclaims of fraud and theft. It will not be untrue that the US interferes in Afghanistan affairs.
Neda Soltan’s grave will grow colder; there will be fewer flowers; her mother’s emptiness will remain.









































Such a tragic story about Neda–and what a mess over there in general. I can’t see how it will resolve in a positive way.
May her spirit be a Phoenix.
I am sorry about the tragic loss of a young lady. I fear for the people in Iran and admire their courage.

I feel helpless in regard to the Iranian people. I wish there were more ways that we could help them rid themselves of their oppressive government.
But, it’s true–the mothers carry most of the pain before, during, and after.
The State Run Media continues to miss a great story.
