I wonder who you would believe, I am sure you would support the Arab news source right!
Ah lovely. Simple denial of all evidence presented. Works for anything! Don't like this "round earth" business? Just deny the evidence!

Now. Just because something is printed in the Wall Street Journal doesn't make it 100% true.

But it is a source with some credibility. At least as far as hard facts are concerned if not the interpritation of them.

Instead of waving your hands try and find something that refutes any of this. I don't know that even the Iranian government denies any of the numerical facts.

They probably just say that they are engaging in the mentioned "corrective movement" as opposed to a "campaign to terrorize an increasingly restive population."
