Our prayers and thoughts are with them as they are sadly and unjustly deprived of their liberty and human rights each second, each minute, each hour, each day and for many years to come! What a precious loss for all humanity. Dear Dru

As you mentioned everyone must keep in mind that Baha'is do not take side of any political group or ideology any where in the world. They remain the well wishers and unifiers of all mankind and their focus remains the oneness of all humanity, the real medicine for the disintegrating world. Dear Glen

The Bahai women are not political prisoners. They were not active in politics. They are religious prisoners, imprisoned because of their religion, which has as part of its teachings a prohibition of Bahais participating in politics.

You are absolutely right, I wish I had the skill to do a better job. But the issues are so critical and time so short and my writing skills so limited but my commitment runs ahead of me. I hope the blogs can make a difference in making the world a safer place for all children of humanity. Dear Dorie, Thanks for taking the time to comment.
