An Iranian opposition leader and his wife, living under house arrest for almost two years, have been denied contact with their three daughters.

Today, discussions are raging across the globe as to Iran's true nuclear intentions and how the world should respond. Yet the primary question is a very simple one. If Iran does develop nuclear weapons, would they use them? The history does not bode well.

Since 1979, the Islamist regimes ruling Iran have violated every civilized convention known to man. They have massacred up to 100,000 of their own citizens and exported terror as far away as Argentina. Should the world help the Greens change all that?

Massive demonstrations are expected in Iran on the 30th anniversary of the seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran (Wednesday, Nov. 4). Opposition leaders are urging their supporters to take part in street rallies.

Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei may be in a coma. The regime launched a probe into opposition cleric Mahdi Karroubi. A top Ahmadinejad official's daughter applies for asylum in Germany. Russia balks, China talks, and AMPAS wraps an Iran film seminar series.

AMPAS is launching a week-long series on Iranian film to be hosted at UCLA and the Academy's Linwood Dunn Theater. Guests include ten Iranian film artists now in L.A. Among them is actress Fatemeh Motamed-Aria, who was reported to be blacklisted in Iran

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the man reelected as President of Iran in June's heavily disputed election, has announced that he wishes to include at least two female ministers in his new cabinet.

With the Iranian authorities quick to crack down on any street protests organized by opposition supporters, those wishing to show their disdain for the Presidency of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad are resorting to more unusual tactics to get their message across.

In response to the many artists, writers, celebrities, filmmakers and politicos who actively supported Mousavi and the Green Revolution, the Ahmadinejad regime has created a blacklist of Iranians who will no longer be welcome on Iran state TV or radio.

As over 100 opposition supporters go on trial in Iran, facing a variety of charges related to the demonstrations that followed June's disputed election, two leading opposition figures have come out with yet more fierce criticism of the authorities.
