Message of Maryam Rajavi to conference at the United States Senate of human rights and democracy in Iran

Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance
 Maryam Rajavi: spring of freedom, It might be postponed but cannot be stopped
On March 09, 2016, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance send a message to lowmakers at the United States Senate about human rights and democracy in Iran. As we speak, The arrival of the Nowruz and spring for the Iranian people but vital message: the spring of freedom is also inevitable. It might be postponed but cannot be stopped. Maryam Rajavi said: A couple of weeks ago, the mullahs held a so-called election. But that was a sham, where all candidates had to prove their loyalty to the ruling theocracy. The election sham was nothing more than a competition between two groups of regime officials in charge of torture, execution and export of terrorism.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi said about Mullah's regim: This is what moderate mullahs are all about. The role of Hashemi Rafsanjani, one of the pillars of this faction, in directing terrorist attacks in 1990s in Argentina, Paris, Vienna, Berlin, Rome, Geneva and Istanbul is common knowledge. As for Hassan Rouhani, I should recall that in addition to 2,300 executions during his tenure, two deadly assaults were carried out against Camps Ashraf and Liberty
He is the head of the Supreme National Security Council and no such attacks could be launched without the Council’s approval. In the end Mrs. Maryam Rajavi said: Expanding your valuable support for the Iranian people’s struggle for freedom will be more impactful than ever before. As we celebrate Nowruz, I wish all of you and the great nation of America every success.

Maryam Rajavi: Clerical regime's dossier should be referred to UN Security Council and officials in charge must be brought to justice

The resolution expresses "serious concern at the alarming high frequency of, and increase in the carrying-out of the death penalty, in disregard of internationally recognized safeguards, including executions undertaken without notification to the prisoner's family members or legal counsel, and at the continuing imposition and carrying-out of the death penalty against minors and persons who at the time of their offence were under the age of 18."

The Iranian Resistance's President-elect Maryam Rajavi welcomed the adoption of this 62nd UN resolution censuring human rights abuses in Iran and declared: Although this resolution accounts for only parts of the clerical regime's crimes, it is nonetheless a revealing document on a regime that is criminal in its entirety and that has been able to hold on to power against a population demanding its overthrow solely by resorting to executions,  torture, and ruthless suppression.
 
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi added: The mullahs' obvious jubilation over the November 13 tragedy in Paris, their active participation in the massacre of the people of Iraq, and their crimes against humanity in limited to Iran's boundaries and that the mullahs do not hesitate to slaughter innocent people and torture and execute political opponents wherever their political interests suit.

-As long as the wave of executions continues in Iran, shaking hands with the mullahs is not justified in any way.
-Supporting Assad and his continued rule help ISIS sutvive; eviction of the Iranian regime is the only way to overcome ISIS.

Maryam Rajavi President-elect of Resistance said: Torture and executions must be stopped; this is the demand of all Iran's people. To the goverments of the West we say: Set aside your silence and inaction over the executions and atrocities of the mullahs' religious fascism and instead, respect the Iranian people's resistance for freedom. If western goverments had stood up to the abuse of human rights in Iran, the mullahs could never expand their barbarity to Syria and Iraq.
