The post was released on the occasion of the June 1981 terrorist attack on a building in Tehran that led to the killing of the then-Chief Justice Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti and 72 others and the act of shooting down an Iranian passenger plane.
“The US officials claim that they defend human rights. They at the same time shoot down an Iranian passenger plane, killing nearly 300 people on board unwittingly. Then they award a medal to the person who committed the crime.”
The post also referred to Afghanistan’s frozen assets as another example of US anti-human rights acts.
By establishing the Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo prisons, torturing and brutalizing prisoners, and committing extrajudicial killings, the US reinvented human rights violations and devised new techniques of flouting human rights.
“The most obvious example of anti-Human rights acts of the UN government is the targeted assassination of General Qassem Soleimani. This arbitrary, illegal, and murderous act constitutes violation of many of the principles enshrined in human rights and international law.”
