Pro-Israel newspaper in Iran has been shut down

I didn't think it was possible to find a pro-Israeli paper in Iran, but until now, there was one. Now, sadly, it's been shut down by Ahmedinejad's dictatorship:
(IsraelNN.com) The director-general of domestic media at Iran’s Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance announced Wednesday that the Karjozaran newspaper was shut down for portraying the State of Israel positively.
And at the end of the article, there's something that's disturbing but unsurprising:
According to Jewish Agency spokesman Michael Jankelovitz, Iranian Jews live from day to day in mortal danger. As were the Jews in Nazi Germany and the former Soviet Union, they are forbidden to learn Hebrew or freely practice their faith. Jewish children are required to attend the state schools on the Sabbath and Jewish holidays, and all Jewish day schools have been closed down.
And since Barack Obama is unlikely to take action against Iran when he becomes president, there's no telling how those left in Iran can be saved.

Update: while we're on the subject, here's a short article from the Japan Times from a few days ago that tells how the government had to pay a huge ransom to free a Japanese student who was held hostage in Iran.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
