For months, now, there has been an effort to frame the Democratic front-runner not just as a bad candidate, but as a potential violent threat to the American public. It is the familiar politics of violent rhetoric, which are being used in this election to undermine the candidacy of Barack Obama. Last night this violent framing took on a new and disturbing dimension when George Stephanopoulos, co-moderator of ABC's candidate debate, asked a series of questions insinuating that Barack Obama may be politically aligned with a radical group called The Weatherman Underground--a 1960s violent political organization responsible for the bombing of federal buildings.

| War, terrorism, violating human rights, execution of freedom activists, continuous bombardments, suicide commitments and producing nuclear weapons; please tell me if you do find any other news headline and topic about the circumstances of Islamic countries (specially Iran) except of these titles I've listed.
But as a Persian journalist writing you from the territory of Persian Gulf, let's tell that mainstream media are veiling all you have to know about Iran, its culture, arts and people.
I invite you to take a look at http://helloyahoomail.net/en a blog that is mainly established to protest the immoral Yahoo removal of Iran's name from its sign-up countries list.
Today the blog is devoted to Persian culture, Persian arts, Persian people and ancient Persia. Just give me some of your valuable minutes to walk you through the glorious hallways of honorable Persia. I am sure that you will wonder if acquainted with these new facts about Iran! |
