UN Investigator Responds to IRI Criticism

Ahmad Shahid's report details widespread torture and executions

Reuters - Tehran on Wednesday slammed a report by a U.N. investigator that said human rights abuses in Iran appear to be increasing and blamed the United States and Europe for the negative assessment of Tehran. Iran's Deputy U.N. Ambassador Eshagh al-Habib rejected the report's findings, saying the assembly's decision to appoint a special rapporteur in the first place was the "result of a one-sided approach and political ambition of certain countries in particularly the United State and its Europeans allies.">>>

UN + BBC = Another group of Mullahs and no interest for Freedom, Independence and A Hopeful Future, no motive or will for it at all.  Infact the opposite for North Africa and the Middle east.  We need to be honest with ourselves Regarding the True and Proven agenda of the USA/UK/France & Israel with respect to Iran and come up with a solution that is rooted in Patriotism above all else, in service of the people like the previous Pahlavi''s were for Iran.  We also can't deny that the crimes going on against Iranians are the worst we have ever experienced and we don't need the UN or BBC to inform us of that. 

It's important we know exactly which governments to hold accountable for helping keep the Hezbollahi Party in Iran in power, the same ones that brought them to power.  We also need to be clear that with all our ingenuity and leadership and every gift and strength we have today and in the past, we have proven we cannot counter or win against the forces against us, because of the support they have mainly, that sow division and rule Iran so despotically today.

Mr. Shaheed is from the Maldives and is NOT AN ARAB. Besides, his report is here in black and white (literally!):

You be the judge!
