About two dozen Iranians living in Germany have been protesting outside the headquarters of Deutsche Welle, the German government’s international broadcasting arm, because it gave a free speech award to Sadeq Ziba-kalam (photo). The protesters say he is just a tool of the Islamic Republic regime. Zibakalam was recently sentenced to 18 months in prison and forbidden to give public speeches, write articles or grant interviews.
