Struan Stevenson: More than 1,000, mostly young, protesters have been murdered by the theocratic fascist regime in Iran

“Young protesters in Iran, Iraq will not be cowed”, this is the title of a piece in the UPI by Struan Stevenson.

In the piece, Stevenson questions the silence of the U.K. and EU media concerning Iran’s protests.

“More than 1,000, mostly young, protesters have been murdered by the theocratic fascist regime in the past two weeks, with more than 4,000 injured and 12,000 arrested. The mullahs are using brute force to try to quell the nationwide uprising, which has erupted in 187 Iranian towns and cities. And yet the U.K. and EU media have barely mentioned the tragedy unfolding in that beleaguered nation. Why?” reads the piece adding:

“Could it be because the EU media hates to be wrong? For years, they have peddled the myth that Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani is some sort of moderate, smiling for the cameras while holding the line against the hard-core turbaned tyrants,”

“Now they see that Rouhani has authorized the ruthless shoot-to-kill policy being savagely implemented by the regime’s Gestapo, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. They squirm with embarrassment as they hear IRGC thugs are scouring Iran’s hospitals, detaining anyone with bullet wounds,”

“They may also have noted that since Rouhani took office in 2013 he has presided over the execution of more than 4,000 people, many of them political prisoners, including numerous women and even children,”

The piece enlightens the record of the regime’s president, Hassan Rouhani on violation of human rights.

“Iran is the world’s leading per capita executioner under Rouhani’s “moderate” presidency. He has even appointed Alireza Avaie as his justice minister. Avaie is a listed terrorist in the West and is notorious for his role as a key executioner of political prisoners during a massacre in 1988, when over 30,000 supporters of the Peoples’ Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI-MEK Iran) opposition movement were hanged, in batches of over 150 each day, on the orders of Iran’s psychotic supreme leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomenei.”

The piece also questions the way the EU press has covered the protests in Iraq.

“The fact that similar protests have continued to rage in neighboring Iraq has, bizarrely, now caught the attention of the EU press, who have noted the brutal crackdown by security forces since the unrest began in October. More than 400 people have been killed and an estimated 19,000 injured. But the media have once again failed to make the link with Iran. They have failed to notice that the crowds on the streets in Iraq’s cities are chanting “Iran out, out! Iraq will remain free.” The Iraqi people are fed up with the corruption, sectarianism and supine subservience of their government, which has allowed the Iranian regime to dominate their political leaders and impoverish their nation,”

Khamenei used the same bizarre thought process to talk about the uprisings in #Iraq and #Lebanon, saying that it was a “conspiracy”https://t.co/RP8kcgWo0f#MEK #Iran @USAdarFarsi pic.twitter.com/LoiAcsYx2I

“Recognizing the threat to their policy of aggressive expansionism across the Middle East, the Iranian mullahs have sent in the terrorist Gen. Qasem Soleimani to quell the riots in Iraq. Masked and clad in black uniforms, snipers and gunmen from the Hashd-al-Shaabi militia, part of the popular mobilization units funded and controlled by Soleimani and the IRGC, have been instructed to shoot unarmed protesters in the head and chest, deploying the same tactics they have used cold-bloodedly in Iran,”

“But it now seems clear that the tens of thousands of young protesters in Iraq will not be cowed. They have lost their fear. There is a new awakening about the devastating impact of Iran’s belligerence in their country. Demonstrators are stamping on and vandalizing images of Khamenei and Soleimani. The Iranian regime’s flag has been burned in several Iraqi cities. The tide of rage engulfing Iraq has led to the resignation of Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi, a corrupt and pliable puppet of the Iranian regime; a major victory for the protesters,”

The piece is concluded by the hope that the EU will end its appeasement policy towards Iran.

“Thousands of young protesters in Iran have also lost their fear. The shoot-to-kill policy of the theocratic fascist regime has turned a nationwide protest into an uprising that threatens the mullahs’ existence. Maybe, at last, the EU press will take notice? Maybe finally they will ditch their policy of appeasement and begin to show their support for the Iranian people.”
