Iran freedom staffs
For the past four decades, the Iranian regime had tried to deprived people of the access to the news and a horrible suppression has been applied to the media. Except the religious fundamentalism thought behind this blatant violation of the basic rights of access to the information,the main goal should be considered from a security aspect.
Due to the certain contradiction of the backward system of the Velayat-e faqih with scientific and social progress, from the very beginning of the founding of this regime, the main feature of the regime was a blatant hostility towards the media and the free spread of information.
Just after a short time of the anti-monarchy revolution of the Iranian people for freedom and justice, Khomeini, who could not bear the critics against its new dictatorship style of ruling the society and to nip the demands of the people for a better social and economic conditions in the bud, issued a decree of breaking the pens.
The distinguishing characteristic between the clerical dictatorship and the other known dictatorial regimes is that in the religious dictatorship ruling Iran, censorship and applying suppression is not restricted to the social and political affairs in the society but spread to every corner of private lives of the citizens. The meaning of privacy is not recognized in this regime.
