Honorable Senator Kaufman;
A  brave Iranian protester is in danger of being hanged!!!! His name is Yousef Rashidi.  He’s been charged  for holding a placard during a demonstration at Amir Kabir Polytechnic where he is a student and Ahmadinejad was giving a speech. The placard he was holding said:
The Fascist president, Polytechnic is not a place for you.
As a result he was arrested at his parent’s house in the city of Noshahr and has been jailed and sentenced to be hanged soon. He is on hunger strike, and needs your support. The Resolution #368 Imposing against IRI’s  r human rights violations, must be enacted now.  We must help and support this truly brave young student.  Please, this is
> urgent. Honorable senator, by condemning IRI and speaking of its heinous crimes you will bring it into the open for the world to know and will save this young man’s life.  Hopefully your voice will be heard and the judicial court in Iran will reverse their rulings.
God bless you in your service to humanity

Respectfully yours
