Pray for the Basij.

From an IRC channel.

Just saw this from night owl: A tweet source talked to a Basiji in Tehran today. According to the source, the Basiji claimed that he was working for Islam, but hoped that he wouldn’t be forced to quell protests again.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reportedly said today that there was as much truth to electoral fraud in Iran as there was for the Holocaust.

The rest of the world knows ot did happen and he just said both are as true as each other.

He just admitted the election was fixed.

Basij It must be hard work mentally.

They are working for people that order murder...

That must be scary.

They know that their lives are at risk also

They could be the target of the next murder

but way down deep inside they know what they do

That people are filming them.

Do they undersand at some point, the regime will turn against them

Blame them for the murders.

Hang them out to dry

I hope they are recording the orders some how for proof they were not acting on their own.

It may be the only thing that prevents them from hanging later

Do they look for family or friends in the crowd?

do they try and hide if they see someone they know?

Would they hit members of their own family?

I noticed the regime has the military out on exercises

I wonder if that is just to keep them busy?

Out of the towns so they can't join in?

Any way the Basij are being paid blood money

I wonder if they think about waht they have done when they spend the blood money

Do they remember the faces of the ones they killed or beat to death?

Will they have flash backs to their bad behaviour?

Basij contact me.

We have seen the experiments where the person keeps uping the voltage to dangerous levels

Yes a famous psy experiment.

so many of the people are capable of very bad things

But what do they think after

at home at night in bed.

or maybe they are too afraid ..and stay with their basij group all night to make sure they are not talked about

fear the group may turn against them for showing mercy.

If they block it out ,when will it come back to haunt them?

At some time maybe during prayers they think about what they ahve done

I think some of the Basij are conflicted.

Need to earn money to feed the family and torn about what they are doing to earn it.

even al qaeda members have admitted to doing things they regret or seing other doing things against Allah

and not speaking up, knoeing they were doing wrong.

It must be very hard to be basij and be expected to kill un armed civilians

or at least beat them bloody

Maybe they pretend the unarmed protesters are terrorist, But deep down they know better.

they are just marching.

Basij , but dumb confused bastards

doing things thaat will haount them for the rest of their lives

the conflicts with in the Basij members must be horrorendes

And they do it day after day after day, maybe they get hardened to it.

just block it out

I guess some sick os maybe enjoy it

but just seing all the blood and violence must effect them.

If not now then it will later..

And we have Muslim killing muslim

What does Allah make of that?

Some maybe serial killers

But the other basij see and know it is wrong

and SAY nothing

And every thing you do, as a basij is tracked monitored

right now the regime applaud you

But what about later?

Like in East Germany or Russia when they opened all the secret records.

They people , relatives and friends will find out

And they the Basij or MOIS will have to live in that light.

Exposed for supproting the regime.

it is a very difficult life they lives fraught with double dealings and death from above.

I would be worried if I wans Basij, commiting capital crimes, people filming me.

people use telephoto lenses, one never sees the camera

The regime will have plans to wash thier hands of all the illegal activity.

Allah knows there was no excuse.

the regime may deny giving the order

Some may even be truly supporting the regime

but its hard to support killing unarmed women just standing there.

or taking an axe to marchers

or beating old women to dath with a pipe

But I guess it can be done al Qaeda does it all the time.

I wonder if the Basij can call in sick, if they have a doctors excuse?

From owl: The Imam's Way Faction (a group of MP’s) of parliament, which is slightly pro-reform, asked the families of detainees to send them documented information about their arrested family members.

I wounder if they will also send photos of the Basij doing bad stuff?

Green Brief #15 is out! July 01 : http://tinyurl.com/l2hdl4 Please Read and Retweet!

Khatami criticized the government in a new, harsher tone that suggested outright contempt today. He called the elections a “coup d’état against democracy.”

If later they determine it was a coup d'etat, that opens the basij ot prosecution.

What would you guys do to CYA if you were basij?

I guess if I was basij maybe I'd contact the protesters and give info, so I could say I was helping the 2009 revolution.

That just might save me from prosecution.

Document the leadership.

video tape or record all our orders, so they couldnt say we were rogue agents acting on our own.

And keep a clear record of who did what, and what they said might be able to use that to make a deal avoid prosecution.

Just to be on the safe side ... what could it hurt?

or get called away for family emergency,

I think they would just need to be gone for a month to see which way this is going.

Any Basij out there that can tell us what happens if you just quit?

I'd really liketo talk to any basij or even pro-regime people, email me InternetAnthropologistTT at gmail dot com

I would be willing to help any basij explore options

I pray for the protesters, Bill on my blog is a Muslim and he prays for the Basij to get right with Allah.

Iranian protesters CONFESS...!

Mullahs mull mock trials based on CONFESSIONS.

In 2001, Ali Afshari was arrested for his work as a student leader. He said he was held in solitary confinement for 335 days and resisted confessing for the first two months. But after two mock executions and a five-day stretch where his interrogators would not let him sleep, he said he eventually caved in.

“They tortured me, some beatings, sleep deprivation, insults, psychological torture, standing me for several hours in front of a wall, keeping me in solitary confinement for one year,” Mr. Afshari said in an interview from his home in Washington. “They eventually broke my resistance.”

The problem, he said, was that he was not sure what he was supposed to confess to. So over the next several months, he said, he and his interrogators “negotiated” what he would say — and, more ominously, whom he would implicate. Once his confession was complete, he said, he practiced it for 7 to 10 days, and then it ran on state-run television.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Three years later, Mr. Memarian, the journalist and blogger, was arrested in another security sweep. He said that his interrogator at first sought to humiliate him by forcing him to discuss details of his sex life, and that when he hesitated, the interrogator would grab his hair and smash his head against the wall. He said the interrogator asked him about prominent politicians he had interviewed, asked if they ever had affairs, and asked if he had ever slept with their wives.

“I was crying, I begged him, please do not ask me this,” said Mr. Memarian, who is in exile now in the United States. “They said if you don’t talk now you will talk in a month, in two months, in a year. If you don’t talk now, you will talk. You will just stay here.”

The pressure was agonizing, he said, as he was forced to live in a small cell for 35 days with a light burning all the time and only three trips to the bathroom allowed every 24 hours. He was forced to shower in front of a camera, he said. At one point the interrogators threatened to break his fingers.

“They came up with names, and topics,” he said. “They gave me a three-page analysis and said read this and include it in your confession. My interrogator once said, ‘You have written seven years for the reformists; it’s O.K. to write for us for two months.’ ”

Hang Mousavi?

Show trials, possible execution, hang over "US agent" Mousavi

DEBKAfile Exclusive report

July 4, 2009, 7:35 PM (GMT+02:00)

Has the supreme leader turned against opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi?

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, driven by a thirst for revenge, is preparing a wave of show trials, public confessions and executions to crush the opposition which dared to refute the legitimacy of his election. The West, especially the Obama administration, hoping the bloody crackdown was over, can forget about re-engaging Tehran in talks on the nuclear controversy any time soon, when Mir Hossein Mousavi and the reformist ex-president Mohammed Khatami are denounced for "acting as America's fifth column."

Hossein Shariatmadari, writing in the conservative Kayhan daily Saturday, July 4, said Mousavi must be put on trial as a "US agent" who committed "horrible crimes and treason." The writer is a close adviser to Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and must be presumed to represent his boss's views.

Ahmadinejad is pointing the finger at "US and British instigators" in order to conceal the widespread popular disaffection which brought masses out to the streets to protest against the regime, and to trump up a pretext for sentencing accused ringleaders to death.

His pressure on the supreme leader to support harsh punishment seems to be working.

The announcement Friday, July 3, that some Iranian British embassy employees would be tried for acting against national security is part of this campaign. One was said to have confessed. Nine were originally detained and two remain in custody.

The latest DEBKA-Net-Weekly disclosed that last week, intelligence minister Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejee bluntly warned Mousavi that he and members of his family went in danger of their lives if they carried their opposition to the regime any further. He reminded him of the fate on Neda Agha-Soltan, the Iranian co-ed who was gunned down by the Basij militia.

Mousavi is therefore under enormous pressure to back down and send his supporters home. So far he has refused to do so, but claims he does not know who organized the latest demonstrations.

His home is under siege by security forces who say it is for his own protection. One of Mousavi's deepest fears is that Ahmadinejad will have him put on trial and executed on the charge of causing mass deaths, thereby making the opposition rather than the regime responsible for the bloodshed of recent weeks.

The chief of Iran's security forces, Esmail Ahmadi Moghaddam, announced last Wednesday that 1,032 arrests had been made during the post-election street protests. Our Iranin sources put the number much higher - between 5,000 and 6,000. The first "confessions" have been broadcast by detainees who had obviously been tortured.

...xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Iran can't win on this,

they can only tune the speed of the revolt.

They can just let it plod along at its own speed or

push the revolution into over drive with executions.

Protesters

1. Family of detained protesters continued to swarm in front of Evin Prison for the third day in a row. In yesterday’s mourning at Beheshte Zahra Cemetery, mourners were reportedly attacked by Basijis. It was reported that a large portion of Tehran’s shops were closed yesterday – to commemorate the 20th day of the “Sea of Green” movement.


2. There were demonstrations at Mashhad today, although our sources could not confirm information beyond that. Sources also indicated that so far, at least 5 people have been killed and more than 200 have been detained during protests from Mashhad. High-profile detainees include Hashem Khastar, Reza Arab and Rohullah Shahsavar.

3. The main University of Sistan o Baluchistan has been shut-down by the government, according to unconfirmed reports. Furthermore, students from the university were dragged out of their dorms and sent home. Daryoosh Shikoof, a prominent Iranian filmmaker who lives in Germany, has started a hunger strike in front of the Russian Embassy in Berlin to protest Russia’s continued support for Ahmadinejad’s regime.


Arrested and Killed

4. Ayatollah Jannati – Head of The Guardian Council - announced that the remaining British Embassy staff has been found to have had a hand in the unrest. Speaking at Friday Prayer’s in Tehran, he added they will be “prosecuted for the crimes they have committed – and already confessed to.” He went on to say that, “confessions from other instigators of violence will also be shown on national TV.” Sources indicate that the government is planning on hanging the remaining staffers after mock trials. So far, two British Embassy staffers remain in Iranian custody.

5. Sara Sabaghian, a lawyer and prominent women’s rights activist, was freed today from Evin Prison. Another detainee at Evin, Mojtaba Tehrani, who maintained the website for Etemade Melli newspaper, has called his family after a week in detention and asked them for their prayers. Reports have also surfaced that an Iran Telecom employee who has sent text messages to the BBC has been fired from his job.


Statements

6. Grand Ayatollah Yosuf Sanei today stated that, “confessions of detained protesters didn’t hold any merit, neither legally or rationally.” He added that, “detentions, killings, beatings, lies and tricks should not stop people from trying to retain their right to determine their future.” He called into question the legitimacy of the election again by stating that none of the candidates – except for the winner – had given up their claims against its impartiality. He also cautioned security forces against the use of force against civilians and called it an “unforgivable sin” and stated that no order by any authority could justify acts of violence against the populace. His statements come at a time when more Ayatollahs are siding with protesters and denouncing the government’s actions in the aftermath of the elections.

7. No reliable statements from Mousavi have surfaced today. His wife, Zahra Rahnavard, however, did state today that Mousavi will continue to fight for women’s rights. Reports have indicated that at least she is under house arrest and unconfirmed reports indicate that both of them are currently being overseen by security forces and their movement is severely restricted.

8. The Association of Iranian University Graduates has released a statement claiming that, “the government was out to suppress opposition by any means possible escalating from the rigged elections.” Dozens of Iranian university professors have a signed a letter expressing deep anger for the attacks made by security forces on Iranian universities and students.


Government / International

9. Reports indicate that Ahmadinejad’s trip to Mashhad has been canceled due to the government’s fear of possible violent reaction from the residents there. Reports have also surfaced that clerics in Mashhad are conducting closed-door meetings to evaluate the situation and many have given their blessings to protesters. Mashhad, Iran’s second-largest city is considered a holy city because of the numerous shrines for martyrs, as well as for Prophet Mohammed’s family members. It boasts a large and active population of clerics.

10. All 27 EU member nations have summoned the Iranian ambassadors in their countries to question them about the current situation in Iran. They asked about the fate of the remaining British Embassy staff detained in Tehran, and demanded their immediate released. Pressure is being mounted on Iran as EU nations are searching for ‘other ways’ to resolve the situation. It is being reported that the EU is considering whether it should stop issuing visas to Iranian government officials.

11. The Dutch government today suggested that it might push for EU legislation banning the sale of all technology that could be used to filter or censor information to Iran. The Dutch Parliament told the government it should take the initiative to convince the European Union to ban such sales. It was reported that China lent expertise to the Iranian government to censor websites and track down net-dissidents. Today, it was also reported that the Sultan of Oman – one of very few countries who congratulated Ahmadinejad on his re-election – has canceled his trip to Iran.

12. Etemaade Melli’s Newspaper was once again censored by the government. According to reports, it was forced to publish a repeat of yesterday’s articles. The government has claimed that the videos of Neda’s death are all fake. Mr. Zarghami, head of the government’s official media organization, IRIB, has accused Twitter, Facebook and YouTube of grossly misrepresenting what is going on in Iran and said that they were being directed by foreign forces.
