" Iran's hard-line judiciary today began trials of 100 prominent, moderate politicians and others, accusing the country's main reformist and moderate political groups of working with foreigners trying to foment a popular uprising against the government. The opposition immediately decried the charges as groundless and said the mass indictment was filled with errors "
The leaders of Iran are determined
to stamp out all election protests and
make sure they do not happen again
in the future. They will impose harsh
sentences on some of the protest leaders
in order tro make a point about the futility
of opposing the government.The reformers
need tro end protests and start working
on a plan for the next election.
