    You are quite right there. But will media pressure work?

    "The charges against him include "taking action against national security by designing and moderating adult content websites," "agitation against the regime" and "insulting the sanctity of Islam." His supporters say Malekpour wasn't aware the program he made would be used for an adult website."


    and these people have full capability of making nuclear arms without help from any other country.....
    and you all thought Bush was crazy, miss me yet :shock:

    Yes I do disagree, because there is a Canadian in Montana on death row that has got very little to know help from this government, not to mention others (Marc Emery and others), I am not going to post every link of every white dude that has gotten in trouble in foreign countries. What I do feel is that this government "is of the opinion is that if you go to a foreign country and get into trouble you are on your own". If that is how our government feels, then they are wrong.

    I am not going down that road of accusing my government of racism because the facts simply don't support that.

    well ... we've had this discussion before so, there's no point in getting into it again ...

    i would only suggest that you look at the list of "innocent" people who are in trouble abroad ...
