Iran has a dismal record on human rights.

Human rights are women's rights, and women's rights are human rights.

Gay rights are human rights.

There can be no press freedom when journalists exist in conditions of corruption, poverty and fear.

Individuals have rights and there are things no person or group may do to them (without violating their rights).

And when human rights are being thrown aside, ignored, well, there's no game in progress, that's all -- in spite of the childhood bible, the comic strip. It believes that only when you're permitted to murder, kill, rob and burn can a game be in progress. That is the message carried to us by the Sunday papers. And that is the message which every child erroneously learns.
