He added that physical and psychological damages “inflicted on each individual of the Iranian nation in the 2nd and 3rd imposed wars, from child killings and war crimes in Minab and Lamerd to attacks on medical centres, is each a legal file that must be pursued in both domestic and international courts.”

He further stated that from the “murder” of newborns and the elderly to the assassination of his father and predecessor, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, “each is a file among thousands of major legal cases that must be earnestly pursued in domestic and international courts”.

“What is definite is that these criminals must be seized by the collar and brought to justice for their criminal deeds,” he asserted.

Never in my life could I have expected to agree with the Iranian government. But, on this specific issue? I do. There needs to be accountability for this.

    How do sanctions prevent civil rights? That’s kind of a nonsense connection, do you have any actual direct evidence of such a connection and I’m pretty sure it’s in this case pretty much totally related to the regressive theocratic regime. Sanctions aren’t forcing this regressive theocratic discrimination, the regressive theocratic culture is. Admittedly sanctions created conditions for them to take power but they were already there already discriminating to the best of their power.
