It's your type of government - oppressive, controlling and willing to use force against its people.

We need to be a bit more diligent on the actual facts of what is happening in Iran. This NYT article was disappointingly light on critical analysis and validation of events.

No one knew if government was on board with ending the morality police, but if it's abolished, it will unlikely appease protesters who are still clashing with other security forces and have become so emboldened that some are calling for ... AN END TO THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC!

Another proof that there's no such thing as "natural" rights. Rights are fought for and conquered by people.

This is not accurate. Pls fact check.

You trust the NYT reporting abt anything, especially an oil producing nation that will not bow to the US war machine? The Times is owned by and is a mouthpiece for the very corruption you say is rotting our system.

The attorney general suggested it had been disbanded, but there has been no government confirmation.
