Int'l Human Rights Day celebrated in Shiraz, Iran Monday, December 11, 2006 - ©2005 IranMania.com LONDON, December 11 (IranMania) - The International Human Rights Day was celebrated in this southern Iranian city, IRNA reported. The ceremony was attended by a number of human rights activists. Addressing the ceremony, Secretary-General of the Islamic Human Rights Commission of Iran Mohammad-Hassan Ziyaee-Far said, "All of us are duty-bound to carry out activities in whatever form in the name of human rights." He added, "These activities have been launched in developing states since years ago. The measures have produced many results for nations which have used them to promote their own interests in the world." The official praised measures adopted in Iran with respect to various fields of human rights, saying sometimes the measures have been used by other states as models. Pointing to a link between religion and human rights, he said a religion cannot be defended if it categorizes human beings for enjoying social rights based on specific criteria. Ziyaee-Far said, "Certain extremist interpretations of human rights cannot be accepted by divine religions including Islam." December 10 is named as the International Human Rights Day. +++ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
