Human Rights are Not Universal In Iran, As we can See.

And to think there are still some people in Iran for whom Khomeini is an Imam, after his creaton of a hezbollah republic and human rights abuses how can anyone say that these are our spiritual leaders?????

After all the lies of torture during the shahs time, which we know did not occur during the 1970's (and were rare before) and the storys of him being a despot and a Megalomaniac, today we can see the real fruit of such Irresponsible Reporting.

Freedom requires responsible Iranians to defend the truth.

Human Rights were not abused in Iran in the 1970's, They were Universal and women and bahaii's and all minorities had a much better life to look forward to.  Iran was progressive, autocratic and free.
