Wed ~ I appreciate your Update. Am on Twitter (see Link Below) and believe that Sakineh should be free and leave that reactionary fascist state. We are fortunate to have Internet Power to help spread the word about such critical cases. Many unjust states can manipulate religion in order to maintain their own state power. More people have been killed in the name of religion that about any other cause, including people who will wage war against another people of a different religion.
Of course, here in the USA we have a lot of Muslim-phobia, but then many Amerikans are not happy unless they hate one group of people or another. I am a U.S. Citizen born here and in a position to know.

Avaaz.org - The World in Action Dear friends,
Last week over 900,000 of us sent messages and made calls to key government officials. But now we're at an impasse and have to give Iran a way out of this dilemma. The next step towards freeing Sakineh is to fund international experts to strengthen her legal defense and work with officials in Iran to resolve this shameful situation. If thousands of us donate in the next three days we can hire an elite team of advocates, keep campaigning to free Sakineh and work on behalf of others facing brutal injustice. Click on the link below to support Sakineh:

Iran has tried everything to keep Sakineh in jail. They accused her of adultery and sentenced her to stoning despite the fact that the alleged adultery took place after her husband's death. They sentenced her to death for the murder of her husband even though she had already been acquitted, and another man convicted and sentenced for the murder. They even arrested her son and lawyer and forced the rest of the legal team into exile. After massive international pressure, Iranian officials must be desperate for a face-saving way out of this mess..
And now, for the first time, there is dissent within Iran from Conservative forces about the treatment of Sakineh and the way her case has been handled by the Iranian government. Some are calling for her acquittal of all charges.
A team of diplomatic and legal experts could build on this dissent and work within Iran to secure Sakineh's release. Our call, 900,000 voices strong, in combination with pressure from inside Iran for Sakineh's release is the best chance we have to save Sakineh. Now is the moment to give whatever we can to end her brutal persecution:

In the campaign against the death penalty worldwide, Sakineh's survival is an important beacon of hope. We have shown unprecedented support for her through an explosive petition, strategic ads in Iranian-allied countries and a flood of messages to world leaders generating an international outcry. Join us in this next step towards freeing Sakineh, ending stoning, and eliminating the death penalty across the globe.
With hope and determination,
Emma, Alice, Stephanie, Ricken, David, Graziela, Iain and the rest of the Avaaz team.
