US Embassy Ignorance http://azarmehr.blogspot.com/ Majid Kavousifar, seen in these pictures before being hanged, left Iran for Abu Dhabi two days after the assassination of one of the corruptest and most repressive judges in the Islamic Republic. Judge Moghaddas who was assassinated by Kavousifar and his nephew, was responsible for handing out long sentences to many political activists. Moghaddas sometimes even boasted that he sentenced the accused without even reading their files! Kavoussifar had introduced himself as the killer of Moghaddas to the American Embassy in Abu Dhabi, where he had applied for asylum. The embassy guards handed him over to the Interpol, which informed Islamic Republic's authorities of the incident. I thought it was just the Homeland Security at the US airports who were the thickest officials in the world! Here, Majid Kavousifar is seen smiling and saying his last goodbye. Why are so many victims smiling in these latest round of public executions? Perhaps if there is any after life, it will be better than living under the mullahs.

The Freedom of Information Act For more information on Current Legislation, click here http://www.sunshineingovernment.org/foia.html (Sep. 21, 2006) The House of Representatives passed FOIA reform legislation (H.R. 1309) earlier in 2007. The Senate Judiciary committee approved a similar bill, but the legislation (S. 849) is stalled before a full Senate vote. This act is the most comprehensive legislation to reform the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) in a decade. Check our mainpage for updates and here for more information about the legislation. Brief history of the Freedom of Information Act The Freedom of Information Act of 1966 formally established the public's inherent right to access government information. Since that time, the following significant amendments have been made to FOIA: The Privacy Act of 1974 - Before this time, if only one word within a document was considered too sensitive for release, the entire record would be withheld. The Privacy Act required a FOIA officer to black out sensitive words or pages and release the rest. Freedom of Information Reform Act of 1986 - This amendment dealt with questions of fees to be charged to requesters and protections afforded to law enforcement records. Electronic Freedom of Information Act (EFOIA) of 1996 - Among other things, this act brought electronic information under the jurisdiction of FOIA. It also aimed at speeding up access to records through multi-track processing and expedited access provisions. Traditionally, debate surrounding FOIA has concerned how much information the public has the right to know, and how much must be withheld because of reasons of national security and privacy. Since its inception, the FOIA has been responsible for the public release of vital information. More importantly, once information is made public, people have the power to put a stop to undesirable government activity.
