Channel 4 interview with former Basiji now living in the UK
Saturday, December 19, 2009
The Lede has a bit on this from two days ago, on an interview that you can see from Channel 4 here...or embedded here as well.
Soon after the elections in Iran there were a lot of other interviews with paid thugs in Iran that were less repentant at the time, people that were awed at the idea of being paid so much to simply run around beating people. Now a few months later it has taken a toll as some reflect on what they did or had to watch happen. This is the breakdown of morale among many that is inescapable in a situation like this.
