Time is running out. This is a call for activism.

Neda Amin, a female Iranian journalist who works for an Israeli news outlet and a UN refugee in Turkey, will soon be deported to Iran by Turkish authorities.

Amin said that she has been harassed by Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization (MIT) for a long time.

“People who said they work for the Turkish intelligence organization called me on the phone five or six times one-and-a-half years ago. Then they interrogated me at a foreigners' branch directorate. They kept asking me why I wrote for an Israeli newspaper and with whom I have connections in Israel. Although I repeatedly said I am only a journalist, they accused me of being a spy for Israel.”

Amin covers Iran for the Persian service of The Times of Israel and blogs about her country on her personal website.

She left Iran when a book she wrote was banned, now she will be deported back to Iran unless she finds another country willing to accept her.

Turkey’s current dictator/leader is very dangerous to the west, Israel, Christians, and Jewish people, and Kurds....

and he’s insane, too

could easily be the next Iran

Yes, agree.

Neither are good options. Her life is in jeopardy either way.
