Expose the Brutality of Iran\u2019s Mullahs<\/h3>\n

\"The-Telegraph\"Iran has gone to extraordinary lengths to cover up the crime [1988 massacre]. When some news of it leaked at the time, a na\u00efve international agency rapporteur was welcomed to Evin with a brass band, where schooled prisoners pretended they were well-treated. It was only years later, with the publication of the diaries of a senior Mullah who reprimanded the death committee during their work at Evin, that the truth began to come out, but not about the fate of the women who were allegedly raped before execution. The diaries also included a copy of the merciless fatwa issued by the Ayatollah in fury at having to sign a truce in the war with Iraq.<\/p>\n

Lawler. \u201cThe SHIP Act is an important step in preventing Iran from using that partnership, especially in maritime trading with China, to benefit themselves financially. As Iran is of the largest state sponsors of terrorism and a sworn enemy of Israel, it’s critical\u00a0the United States use every tool in its titanic toolbox to hold Iran\u00a0accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Khomeini\u2019s Dark Record, a Secret Revealed for the First Time in 2023<\/h3>\n

\"Iran,<\/p>\n

On the anniversary of Khomeini\u2019s death in 1988, we take a look at his dark record before and after the anti-monarchical revolution, his role in suppression, terrorism, and warmongering, and how he brought destruction upon Iran.\u00a0Talking about Khomeini is both difficult and simple. It is simply because any Iranian can spend hours discussing Khomeini\u2019s crimes. It is difficult in the sense that expressing the reality of what he did is truly challenging. It may take thousands of hours to summarize the criminal system, looting, charlatanism, and religious opportunism he established.\u00a0Khomeini\u2019s only asset was that he spoke against the Shah and took a position that Shah\u2019s declaration of the revolution was foolish.<\/p>\n
