Islamic Republic of Iran’s new president ordered thousands killed in mass executions and tortured pregnant women

And Biden’s handlers are in the process of giving him billions and a green light for a nuclear weapons program. What could possibly go wrong? America is back!

“Ultraconservative ‘Butcher’ Ebrahim Raisi who ordered thousands killed in mass executions and tortured pregnant women wins Iranian presidential election,” by Gemma Parry, MailOnline, June 19, 2021:

Ebrahim Raisi has been named Iran’s next president, after his rivals conceded before official results were even announced in the country’s lowest ever election turnout for a presidential election.

Raisi is known as ‘the butcher’ for disappearing and executing thousands of opposition prisoners in 1988 while serving as Tehran’s deputy prosecutor and allegedly ordering pregnant woman tortured.

It is thought that at least several thousand and possibly more than 30,000 activists were put to death – hanged by construction cranes in batches of 10 – during the purge.

Iranian political prisoners who were interrogated, tortured and sentenced to die by Raisi have recently told of their horrifying experiences.

Farideh Goudarzi, who was jailed for being part of a banned political group, told MailOnline how Raisi watched guards drop her baby on the floor as part of one brutal interrogation – after she was tortured while pregnant and forced to give birth in jail.

Similarly Mahmoud Royaee, another political prisoner interrogated by Raisi during the 1988 executions, said he once handed down a death sentence to an inmate who was in the midst of an epileptic fit.

Amnesty International have said that Raisi should be investigated for alleged crimes against humanity for his role on the ‘Death Commission’.

‘That Ebrahim Raisi has risen to the presidency instead of being investigated for the crimes against humanity of murder, enforced disappearance and torture, is a grim reminder that impunity reigns supreme in Iran,’ Amnesty said in a statement.

Raisi won 62 per cent of the votes with 90 per cent counted so far. Turnout figures of just under 50 per cent were recorded after voting was extended by two hours amid fears that turnout would be lower than 50 per cent.

Exiled opposition groups said that the majority of voters shunned the presidential elections, hailing the boycott which they urged voters to take part in as a blow to the country’s theocratic system.

Maryam Rajavi, the leader of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), said the ‘nationwide boycott’ was the ‘greatest political and social blow’ to the system led by supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

‘The boycott proved and showed the world that the Iranian people’s only vote is to overthrow this mediaeval regime,’ she was quoted by the NCRI as saying.

The People’s Mujahedin Organisation of Iran (MEK/PMOI) whose political wing is the NCRI believe the actual turnout was 10 percent and the authorities have inflated it by a factor of five in an ‘astronomical fabrication’, the NCRI said….
