What heroes are the Baseej
Zahra Rahnavard, the wife of opposition leader Mir Hussain Mousavi, was attacked by Baseej militia forces and riot police Thursday, according to Mr. Mousavi’s official Web site, Kaleme. The site says that Ms. Rahnavard suffered injuries to her head and back from punches and baton blows.
She was attacked around Sadeqiyeh Square. Bystanders eventually formed a protective circle around Ms. Rahnavard and helped her escape from the militia officers, the site says.
What brave people to beat a 65 year old woman.I bet their families are so proud of them
