The recent chemical attacks in dozens of all-female schools across Iran have made headlines. The videos showing schoolgirls hardly breathing are indeed heart-wrenching. While officials try to downplay this crime, all strings lead to a systematic and organized state crime. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The chain poisoning<\/a> of schoolgirls began almost three months ago. But the chemical attacks leading to this tragedy ramped up in the first week of March, with hundreds of girls falling sick.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cUntil yesterday, 25 provinces with approximately 230 schools have been involved, as a result of which more than 5,000 male and female students were poisoned,\u201d the state-run ISNA News Agency quoted MP Mohammad Hossein Asfari on March 6.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From blaming imaginary adversaries and human error to making contradictory remarks and speaking of \u201cmass hysteria,\u201d regime officials have tried to twist the truth and neglect their role or at least dodge responsibility for the increasing and organized chemical attacks. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The regime\u2019s health minister, Bahram Einollahi, considered the poisoning as a \u201cminor incident without any microbial origins.\u201d Tehran\u2019s pundits and state-affiliated speak of \u201cmass hysteria,\u201d but what is the reality?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLook, we can attribute this incident to mass hysteria when the real reason for poisoning is not confirmed. Currently, all official instances have confirmed this fact. Therefore, we should not take other possibilities into consideration at all,\u201d the <\/span>state-run Mardom Salari daily quoted<\/span><\/a> Dr. Amin Sadri on March 6.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
