We begin tonight’s edition of A Window to the Fatherland with Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh reading one of his poems from the book of his collected works.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
We continue tonight’s program with looking at Rouhani’s comments about the murder of Jamal Khashoogi’s and would make a comparison with the many murders that the Islamic republic regime has committed against Iranian writers and intellectuals, including the Forouhars, Hajizadeh and his son, Fereydoun Farokhzad and Kurdish leaders, to name a few.
We would remind Rouhani that as part of the Rafsanjani and Khamenei’s presidential staff, he had every knowledge about who had ordered these very many political assassinations and cannot deny this fact, but may pretend that he did not know about the latest victims.
Now Rouhani has stepped forward three weeks after the news of Khashoogi broke and has said that this is a case for the international community to prove its sincerity about the human right issue!!
He has some nerves to make such comment. He must be ashamed of himself that while he has been serving a tyrannical regime all his life the regime’s ambassador had killed a Mujahed and carried his body in the boot of his car!
The Iranian regime has murdered dozens of its opponents since its inception and now its president so unashamedly is abusing the Khashoogi’s case to shed crocodile tears for human rights!
The Khashoogi murder has cost dearly to the Saudis and now some are calling forPrince Mohammad Bin Salman to step down.
However, if this ever happens, all his reform programs will evaporate overnight.
In the second part of the program we will listen to the speech of the MP from Shiraz who has criticised Rouhani in relation to the way he has handled thenaming of Cyrus the Great Day.
