Brazil is Forgetting About Human Rights

Thomas Friedman discusses the lack of human rights discussion during Lula's trip to Iran

Mr. Friedman points out that Brazilian President Lula is turning his back on the labor unions that he based his campaign on by ignoring the persecution of labor unions by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

The Stand for Freedom in Iran Coalition is disappointed that the two met at all after this letter was sent by the members of the coalition to President Lula.
