A Window to the Fatherland/Dr. Nourizadeh/Nov 27

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:

In tonight’s program we will once again review the serial murders of the Iranian intellectuals based on the document that Saeed Emami, the man at the center of those horrific murders, had written.

In that document Emami reports to his murderousboss the intelligence minister Falahian, that Darius Forouhar has become a serious opponent of the regime and something quick must happen to silence him.

He continues to say that Forouhar believes in civil disobedience and peaceful transition of power in Iran, which can lead to widespread opposition to the regime, and he is also a nationalist leader, which has its attraction among the population.

On the basis of this document then the murder of Forouhar had been ordered by the regime and several other intellectuals anddissidents.

We will not allow those murders be forgotten and those responsible will have to be brought to justice one day.

One of those people is Mohammad Reza Naghdi who is currently the deputy cultural advisor to the Revolutionary Guard.

He organized the murder of his own cousin who used to be Iran’s charge de affairs in Italy but had links with the opposition Mujaheddin organization.

In the second part of the program we will discuss the issue of money laundering in the regime and how Zarif’s revelations about it has led to a call for his impeachment by the very people who are involved in the criminal activities.

We will also review the comments of Abbasali Kadkhodaie of the Guardian Council about the forthcoming elections.

Behind the Headlines/Nov 27

In tonight’s program of Behind the Headlines we will look at the continuation of the workers strike at the Haft Tapeh Sugar Factory and Ahwaz Steel Plan.

Why certain factions of the regime refuse to accept the presence of money laundering in Iran and why the regime has chosen to crack down on the workers rather than talk to them about their grievances?

Could the Europeans finally come to the rescue of the nuclear deal and what does that mean in economic terms for the Iranian people?

Our guest tonight to discuss these issues is the internationally renowned economist Dr. Fereydoun Khavand.
