      Cheer up a little. The article’s timing is just poor. There was a news story a short while ago that the new reformist President has ordered the morality police to curb their enforcement of the dress code for women. No, it’s not release of past protesters, but it’s a step in the right direction.

      Most Iranians hate the religious police, but democracy is weak in the country. The Supreme Leader and the religious council have frequently removed reformers from the ballot. It’s practically one party rule like China.
