Why Is Iran Kidnapping and Executing Dissidents?
Abductions and executions of Iranian journalists and activists
seem to be aimed at complicating the resumption of talks
under the Biden administration.

What Iran Did
Not Want You To See Video NYT Opinion New
York Times 2
December 2019
In the wake of
an internet shutdown,
one human
rights researcher sifts
through video
evidence of atrocities.
Parts of Iran
are back online,
and videos
suppressed
by the nation’s internet shutdown
are starting
to trickle onto social media.
In the Video
Op-Ed above,
Raha Bahreini
sheds light on the eye-opening stories
that Iran’s
government did not want you to see.
While internet
service has been partly restored,
many Iranians
still do not have
internet
access on mobile phones,
and government
officials there have warned
that
connectivity may be blocked indefinitely.
In a call for
evidence of government repression
during the
blackout,
the United
States State Department says
it has
received almost 20,000 messages,
videos and
photographs.
A hike in fuel
prices sparked protests across Iran.
Ms. Bahreini
exposes and analyzes
footage of
human rights abuses by Iranian security forces,
including
shootings into crowds of unarmed protesters.
And she warns
of what may come next
—
incarceration, torture and forced confessions
that will
further oppress the Iranian people.
If the world
does not take a stand,
Ms. Bahreini fears,
Iran’s
internet blackout
may foreshadow the nation’s darkest days.

Iran, ISIS and

President
Trump
has ordered the withdrawal of U.S. military forces from Syria.
But the
unexpectedly large role of Al-Tanf,
a small U.S.
outpost in Syria,
reveals why
leaving the country won’t be so easy.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife,
evacuations of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have one very basic question
that you can't easily find an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
