WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, USA, July 14, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — The Organization of Iranian American Communities (OIAC) emphatically applauds the Senate International Relations Committee’s approval immediately of S. CON. Res. 2, “Commending the bravery, braveness, and resolve of the men and women of Iran demonstrating in greater than 133 cities and risking their security to talk out towards the Iranian regime’s human rights abuses,” initiated by Chairman Bob Menendez.
This bipartisan decision sends a powerful and well timed message to the Iranian regime, Supreme Chief Ali Khamenei, and President Ebrahim Raisi.
The world stays aware of the Iranian folks’s rebellion of September 2002 and the political executions relationship again to the early Eighties.
The protests symbolize a relentless battle towards Iranian autocracy, with ladies bearing the brunt of this battle, confronting torture, gendered violence, and demise. Their acts function a lighthouse of braveness and a ringing demand to stop systemic oppression.
The Iranian regime, led by Ebrahim Raisi, orchestrated the 1988 Bloodbath of 30,000 political prisoners. Raisi was additionally in cost in the course of the 2022 rebellion, whereby greater than 516 protesters have been killed, tens of hundreds arrested, and a number of other subsequently executed for his or her involvement in the protests.
July nineteenth will observe the thirty fifth anniversary of the “demise fee,” established per a fatwa by Supreme Chief Ruhollah Khomeini to exterminate these related with the MEK, the first Iranian opposition motion. Ebrahim Raisi was an element of this demise fee. Worldwide calls, together with from United Nations human rights our bodies, in search of accountability relating to the 1988 bloodbath and the killings in current Iranian protests have intensified.
Within the wake of persevering with violence and arrests, we unreservedly endorse the decision’s plea for the Biden Administration, “to right away impose, underneath current authorities, extra human rights sanctions on officers and entities liable for the repression of the present protests.”
We likewise endorse measures which, “develop unrestricted web entry in Iran” and, “develop a method to stop the Iranian regime from acquiring and exploiting facial recognition knowledge and software program for the use of mass surveillance.”
Because the decision stresses, “the efforts of the worldwide group to help protestors in Iran,” is significant.
By urging the worldwide group, “to impose human rights sanctions on officers and entities which are liable for the repression of present protests and concerned in violating the human rights of the Iranian folks,” this decision’s calls for are aligned with the Iranian individuals who have been battling towards non secular despotism and monarchic dictatorship for many years, advocating for freedom and democracy.
