Lest we forget, or lest the young ones don’t know: in April 1991 and August 1991, Hashemi-Rafsanjani, Iran’s then president, in conjunction with Ali Fallahian, Iran’s then Minister of Intelligence, perpetrated the assassinations in Paris, France of Iran’s two “ubber” democratic political figures, Dr. Abdolrahman Boroumand and Dr. Shapour Bakhtiar. So for those of you who may have deluded yourselves, you are dealing not with a “pragmatic conservative reformer”, but with a common criminal and a vile murderer.
