Please accept the greetings of this Iranian
prisoner who is deprived of both legal representation and medical attention.
As you may very well know, the Islamic regime
in Iran came to power based on lies and false promises by its founders, and
with the passage of time, it lost its public footing, to the point where the
international community realized that the people of Iran and the regime are in
fact, divided. Those atop the regime of Supreme Leadership continue to either
plunder or pillage the great wealth of this rich land, or expand their
militaristic and autocratic ambitions.
They, are not only unwilling to change
their violent and dictatorial behavior, but they do everything in their power
to block any and every peaceful means of improving and finally changing the
regime. They emphatically refuse to hold a nationwide, free referendum in order
to shed light on the constitution of their Velayat’eh Faghih (or Rule of the
Jurist); they employ every harsh method of inquisition, as well as censoring
the news in order to suppress the protesting voices of the devastated Iranian
people. They have no shame in cruelly suffocating the roar of protesters or
executing them. They publicly discredit political prisoners, or worse, torture
them to death in their prisons. They block all human rights rapporteurs
or special envoys from the United Nations from entering Iran, and
they treat all reports and statements compiled and written by reputable
international human rights organizations, with contempt.
The above mentioned matters are evidence of
repeated violations against humanity at the hands of this regime which also
continues to spread and amplify its organized terror. The world is now at a
highly sensitive fork in the road that begs the consideration of whether the
Iranian people, who actively fight this dictatorial regime, require support or
not. Certainly, in such circumstances, the conscience and principles of leaders
of powerful countries who defend human rights and wish to see the spread of
democracy, security, peace and long term stability in the Middle East and
therefore the world at large, are in the decision-making position, and therefore
such an important and fateful determination cannot be made, based on the
official demands made by certain figures from the Iranian opposition.
The majority of those who protested against the
regime of the Supreme Leader, as well as the opposition inside and outside
Iran, are calling for a nationwide referendum, monitored by international
observers, in order to vote for a government and form of leadership of their
choice. Therefore it is vital that a resolution to this effect be composed and
presented as a petition, to the United Nations Security Council to pass, as
soon as possible.
Mrs. Clinton,
You are in that certain position, and have all
the U.S. diplomatic means at your disposal, to partner with powerful allies to
make this vital need, possible. Now that international sanctions against Iran
are being actively pursued by the Security Council, it is absolutely necessary
that problems be solved at the root, where this inhumane and violent regime is
concerned. Undoubtedly, any and all effective action will be lauded by
Iranians, all of whom are being abjectly oppressed, as well as all free
thinkers of the world. Allowing opportunities to slip away will only lead to
irreparable damages in the region and ultimately the world, resulting in
permanent regret and remorse.
With gratitude,
