Going After Childern

Now that the regime has arrested many of the top reformists figures, they are going after the innocent children of those who are seeking freedom in Iran. 

I have already reported on the arrest of the grandsons of Grand Ayatollah Montazeri for speaking out against the crimes of this regime. 

Mehdi Mirdamadi who is the son of Mohsen Mirdamadi was also arrested last night. His father has already been illegally under trial for several months, but not they are going after the rest of his family. 

The New York Times is reporting on the arrest of more children of reformist clerics, "The Web site also reported that Mehdi Moussavi Tabrizi, the son of Hussein Moussavi Tabrizi, who heads the Association of Teachers and Researchers of Qum and has issued statements supporting the opposition, was arrested, as were the son of Ayatollah Asghar Nazemzadeh and two sons of another member of the association."

In addition, there have been calls to arrest the son of Rafsnajani. These types of actions show the desperate nature of the regime in which they are willing to go after anyone in order to keep their corrupt hold on power.
