IND:  The British newspapers, the NY Times and the Washington Post’s coverage of one of the most important interviews given by Mr. Mousavi was surprisingly very disappointing.

NY Times: Opposition Hardens Line Inside Iran Mir Hussein Moussavi, the Iranian opposition leader, made some of his harshest remarks to date against Iran’s rulers on Tuesday in an interview on his Web site, calling their behavior dictatorial and terrifying. Mr. Moussavi’s remarks came as Tehran announced that nine imprisoned antigovernment protesters would soon be hanged. Two were hanged last week.Mr. Moussavi said the executions were aimed at “terrifying people” into submission. “The majority of people believed in the beginning of the revolution that the roots of dictatorship and despotism were abolished,” he said. “I was one of them, but now I don’t have the same beliefs. You can still find the elements and roots that lead to dictatorship.”

Washington Post: Iran’s opposition leader appeals for calm Iran’s opposition leader appealed to his supporters and other anti-government activists Tuesday not to overstep the law in pressing for political and social changes.
