Globalization = Modern Day Colonization

If universal labor and health laws are not devised and enforced the globalization is just another refined and Internet laced way of colonization of poor and uneducated. The only menacing part of this version would be that it now truly covers the world. Where as British empire on its hay day when sun never set on her empire is child play compared to 3-4 billion people that are salved to produce the first world's toys and wares.

Example:

The Apple company has over 500,000 Chines producing IPODs, IMACs, and IPHONEs for mainly the first world. The surfs are making 10 dollars a day with no labor or health security.

The argument that these people are better off than 20 years ago when they barely survived on the subsistence farms is bull shit. Its the same argument by British, France, Dutch, and Spaniards telling the folks back home how they are civilizing the savages.

Islamic Iran is making excessive use of the death penalty to spread fear among people mostly dissidents and activists. Although Iranian officials insist death penalty is an effective deterrent but in fact experience in past 29 years proved that death penalty is not an effective way to prevent crimes.

Also Iran officials claim that death penalty is carried out only after an exhaustive judicial process which doesn't have any meaning while suspect doesn't go through a fair trial. Police force in Iran torture suspects to confess to crime whether they have done it or not and their confession under torture is a main argument that judges take into consideration to sentence suspects to death. Sadly most of judges are illiterate and they don't have any knowledge about law but sharia. They do careless about suspect rights from the beginning of trial to the end.

Under above circumstances all of these sentences are against international laws and Iran is in violation of them. (International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights)

We urge Islamic Republic of Iran's officials bring an immediate end to these executions.

Please support above cause to Stop Execution in Iran and spread the message in your network. Thanks.
