Omid Mir Sayafi, a blogger who was jailed in Tehran in February for "insulting" Ayatollah Kameini, died in prison yesterday under mysterious circumstances. The offense that saw him thrown into Iran's infamous Evin prison? Asking "Mr. Khamenei, can you love me as much as you love Sheikh Nasrallah's son?" Them's fightin' words for the Supreme Leader, I guess.
As the (UK) Times Online reports, "Iran has launched a crackdown on bloggers and internet users deemed to be hostile to the authorities and their Islamic values."
Yes, let us by all means have a "dialogue" with this open-minded regime.
