The Iranian regime\u2019s supreme leader Ali Khamenei<\/span> selected Ebrahim<\/a> Raisi as the new president of the regime since the regime faces Iran\u2019s restive society which is determined to topple the dictatorship by any means.<\/span><\/p>\n The Iranian people have\u00a0shown their\u00a0desire\u00a0for a regime change\u00a0in numerous uprisings. The last uprising was in November 2019 in which Khamenei ordered the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC)\u00a0to massacre protesters. In mid-December, the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK)\u00a0<\/span>revealed<\/span><\/a>\u00a0that the IRGC killed over 1,500 protesters during the November uprising. In December 2019, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI<\/a>) Mrs. Maryam Rajavi\u00a0<\/span>stated<\/span><\/a>, \u201cthe number of martyrs definitely exceeds 1,500. Of course, the actual number is much higher. This means that the regime has killed at least 60 times more than the number of people slain during the uprising of December 2017-January 2018. Many more were wounded using knives, axes,\u00a0and pellet guns, among other weapons.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Ebrahim Raisi is one of the main culprits of the massacre of 30,000 political prisoners in the summer of 1988, mostly members and supporters of the PMOI\/MEK.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Appointing the henchman of the 1988 massacre, Ebrahim Raisi, has two messages: First, it was the final nail in the coffin of \u201creformism\u201d. Second, the Iranian people\u2019s organized resistance is the regime\u2019s alternative.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Raisi\u2019s appointment\u00a0\u2026.\u00a0is an open and more forceful declaration of war against the people of Iran by the great thief of their sovereignty,\u201d\u00a0<\/span>said Maryam Rajavi<\/span><\/a>\u00a0in her speech marking\u00a0June 20,\u00a0the 40<\/span>th<\/span>\u00a0anniversary of resistance against the Iranian regime.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cSince June 20, 1981, there have only been two main opposing camps in Iran: The camp of people\u2019s resistance for freedom on the one hand, and the camp of religious fascism, reaction, and dictatorship seeking to preserve a murderous regime on the other.\u00a0Now, on the 40th anniversary of Resistance, the regime is struggling in a vortex of overthrow, so much so that it has decided to tie its fate to an evil mass murderer whose name and identity symbolizes the end for the regime,\u201d she added.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Ebrahim Raisi came into the regime\u2019s hierarchy in 1979 after the mullahs took power in Iran. He was 19 when became a judge playing a key role in the murder and oppression of PMOI\/MEK and other opposition groups.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \n <\/p>\n Amnesty International Secretary-General Ms. Agnes Callamard tweeted that Ebrahim Raisi is deserved to be investigated for the crimes against humanity of murder, enforced disappearance, and torture, instead of becoming the president.<\/p>\n \n The outcome of #Iran<\/a> "election" was predictable. But nevertheless, that #EbrahimRaisi<\/a> has risen to the presidency instead of being investigated for the crimes against humanity of murder, enforced disappearance and torture, is a grim reminder that impunity reigns supreme in Iran<\/p>\n — Agnes Callamard (@AgnesCallamard) June 19, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
