Question Title

* 3. Here is an extract from a recent Avaaz campaign in English:

----------------------------------------------------------

Dear friends,

It’s shocking -- Iranian courts sentenced six people to death over the mass protests that have swept through the country.

Many more people are in immediate danger. Journalists, human rights defenders, university students, women, and schoolchildren have been murdered -- and many of those arrested face torture, enforced disappearance, and unfair trials.

The regime is not backing down and is now threatening protesters with executions to crush the revolution. We must stand with the people in Iran!

Thousands of Iranians continue to protest, and we can help them keep the world’s attention on their struggle for freedom and justice. Sign our urgent petition now for world governments to help stop these brutal killings:

Tell governments to help stop the brutal crackdown in Iran
