Iran has sentenced two dissident journalists from its ethnic Kurdish minority for being "enemies of God".It's a miserable time to be a moderate in Iran.Rights watchdog Reporters Without Borders (RSF), says Adnan Hassanpour and Hiva Boutimar were sentenced by a court in the eastern city of Marivan.
The two journalists have 20 days to appeal against their sentences, but if their cases are rejected by the Supreme Court the sentence will be carried out.

Revolution (as peaceful as possible, preferably) remains one of the better hopes for restraining Iran's nuclear ambitions.
