international / politics / elections / other press Sunday August 19, 2007 19:30 by Borat
Kazakhstan as we all know is where Borat comes from. & in keeping with their post-Soviet democratic traditions they've just celebrated a general election with results which could probably cause even Ahern or Brown to go quite puice green with envy.

The Fatherland's Ray of Light "Nur Otan" party has won all the seats in the parliament. Quite. every single one of them.

Of course people are wondering were the elections fair - but nobody is calling Jimmy Carter quite yet because seemingly according to some mystical election pillar of Western life, there has never been a fair election in Kazakhstan.......so it doesn't matter then. Meanwhile the Kazakhs look forward to oil and gas revenue the new Russian/Chinese pipeline through their country will bring. Puice. lovely colour. read full story / add a comment

Yassamine Mather writes on the judicial murder of 50 people in Iran. She also points out that according to Iranian Govt figures, 150,000 women have been arrested for wearing an "improper hijab" (ie letting their hair show). Full article at link.

At the end of July and beginning of August 2007, in less than a week, over 50 people were executed by public hanging in Iran’s islamic republic. This has taken place against the background of a campaign entitled ‘enforcement of national security’, under which over one million Iranians have faced questioning. Meanwhile, the state claims that it has arrested 4,000 ‘delinquents’ and detained 43,000 accused of drug offences. Just as alarmingly, anti-war, anti-imperialist activists such as Mansour Ossanlou and Mahmoud Salehi, as well as many workers and students, are held in prison on trumped-up charges.
