Iran-Ask Zarif about situation of human rights and 57 executions

On July 17, the CFR and their president Richard Haass has invited Javad Zarif, the Iranian regimes foreign minister to speak at the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development and meet counterparts.

The set of goals to be reviewed in depth will be the following, including Goal 17. Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, that will be considered each year:

·         Goal 1. End poverty in all its forms everywhere

·         Goal 2. End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture

·         Goal 3. Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages

·         Goal 5. Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls

·         Goal 9. Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation

·         Goal 14. Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development

poverty in Iran -street children

The problems for Zarif and his regime starts at the first goal, how can anyone expect a regime to work to end poverty when they are the very cause of poverty in Iran? The first step for the regime must be to stop funding terrorism around the Middle East and especially Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Lebanon. But we all know that the regime will never abandon their proxies. The regime has just ratified the minimum wages in Iran to be 1/3 under the poverty line, that means that most families in Iran live under the poverty line.

The mullahs regime is not doing any better on goal 2, in their attempt to get fast money from petrol wells they rerouted rivers and destroyed Iran's bread basket, they turned Irans most fertile area into a desert. Large parts of Iran do not have access to clean drinking water, and it is the failed environmental policy of the regime that is the cause of the drought.

The Iranian regime will never be able to uphold goal 3. If they shall have any hope of upholding that they must stop torturing and harassing ordinary people, they must free all political prisoners, to ensure healthy lives the regime must put together a good health care service so that poor mother is not forced to sell their children in order to pay hospital bills. One other thing, how can they ensure peoples well-being when they tense to execute everyone that disagrees with their rule?

Iran SSF impound the cars of those who are improperly veiled

This regime will never be able to reach goal 5, they just passed a law that forbids women to take off the mandatory hijab in their own cars. This regime has also forbidden women to ride bicycles. One minister went as far as claiming that the drought in Iran is caused by women who refuse to obey hijab laws. Do you really expect that a regime that is capable of this ever will respect and uphold Human Rights?

Goal 9. the regime have building cranes but they are used to hang people, there are no cranes available to use to build neither infrastructure nor new buildings.

With the points above in mind, we ask you, Mr. Haass please reconsider your invitation of Zarif and respect the victims of this regime. 

What is the meaning of Swedish women with hijab in Iran?

It is with great disbelief I watch the Swedish delegation enters Iran. The women who are in the front line fighting for women’s rights bends over and great the Iranian delegates wearing HIJAB, I had to look twice to believe this. 

 I ask the Swedish ladies: How could you sell out all that you are fighting for? How could you let down your Iranian sisters like this? It is really the walk of shame in many meanings. First of all, you are wearing hijab, last time I checked Sweden was not a Muslim country so this is not your normal headgear. Second, what are you doing in Iran? do you not see all the atrocities that the regime is doing to their own people? and especially women? 
To show respect for a country should not mean that you sell out your beliefs and values, but this is exactly what the Swedish delegates are doing when they are bending over for the dictators in Tehran.
 

The French delegate was no better, do not tell me it is out of respect for the country, the Persian culture does not contain forced hijab, this is a clerical phenomenon that appeared after the mullahs hijacked the Iranian revolution. In true Persian culture wearing hijab is a personal choice, every woman decides if she wishes to wear hijab or choose not to.
 

The day 100,000 Iranian women protested the headscarf.

The protests against forced hijab are at an all-time high in Iran, more and more women are protesting against this Islamic rule forced upon the women by the mullahs and their brothers and husbands are fighting with them. So how can government delegates sell out so easily?

The bravery of the Iranian women is outstanding, they keep protesting even if they can end up in jail or be sentenced to public flogging. So why do the female delegates who visit Iran bend over so easy?

Do you think this is a must out of respect for the Islamic religion? Take a look at the western female delegates visiting Saudi Arabia, none of these ladies was forced to wear hijab, none. This is true Islam, wearing hijab must be a choice the woman makes, to get these rights for women of Iran there must be a regime change because the Mullahs in Tehran are old and they are still in the dark ages when it comes to the development of society. The only solution for the women of Iran to get freedom of choice is to overthrow the mullahs regime and elect a democratic government that believes in equality between genders and human rights.
