Abuse, Discrimination, Expulsions & Harassment of Baha’is by Iranian Authorities
Posted by Farshid under Personal ThoughtsThe Iranian president regularly uses the word peaceful, believes strongly in compassion and being human and these are his words during the recent release of British Navy soldiers, yet he arranges conference to examine if the Holocaust ever existed. He also strongly insists on loving the people of the world, yet this president and his government find no conflict in being compassionate and peaceful and at the same time expulse Baha’i students from universities and harass and abuse Baha’i schoolchildren.
Of course if you ask them why, their reasons for this behavior are many and conflicting and yet so justified and simple in their hypocritical heads. Baha’is, according to the Iranian government, are all spies of Israel and US and have to be punished. This is what justifies harassing and abusing children, torturing & killing men and women alike, demanding money (from the remaining family) for the bullets by which they kill the Baha’is. This sad and tragic story has gone on for 27 years and will continue to do so as long as the world allows it to.
