Iranian Activists protesting against Mullahs' ballott boxes in Los Angeles and several other U.S. cities have been attacked and pepper-sprayed .

Please contact and send faxes to the US Congress, Senate, your local representatives and the White House to demand an urgent inquiry about the events. Tell them that these things should NOT occurr in the land of the Free !

Demand that all the measures be taken to punish the responsible and that no other similar attacks be committed against dissidents on the U.S. soil by a Terrorist regime !!

Express solidarity to the victims of these attacks !

In the below photo, pubblished by Reuters, two of the victims, screaming against a pro-regime Iranian outside a LA Hotel.

From Doctor Zin:

Iranian Polling Station in LA Shut Down

http://regimechangeiran.blogspot.com/2005/06/iranian-polling-station-in-la-shut.html

I just heard from Iman Foroutan, of SOSIRAN.com, that the Iranian polling station in Los Angeles, CA was shut down. Prior to its closure, Aryo Pirouznia, of SMCCDI, and an unnamed women were pepper sprayed by security personnel guarding the polling station. The woman required medical attention and was taken to a local hospital.

I have heard of other agressive measures taken by the Islamic Republic of Iran's personnel in other cities today. A more complete briefing on today's efforts will be posted later.

Update: An SOSIRAN.com associate sent me the following report:


A group of Iranian Americans composed of TV journalists and political activist who had gathered in front of the Commerce Plaza Hotel (Los Angeles suburb) to protest and report the conduction of the sham Iranian presidential elections were assaulted by the hotel security on the command of IRI thugs in US.

According to Ms. Dokhi Abdi; a political activist and Iranian satellite TV reporter and commentator in Los Angeles, upon the arrival of the group to the Commerce Plaza Hotel where the elections for the Iranian presidential election was being conducted, the group of 12 activists and journalists were intercepted by the hotel security and a valid Iranian passport was demanded from them in order to allow entry to the hotel.

Soon after several Iranians who were in charge of the event in the hotel were called to the scene; upon their determination that this group of 12 were Iranian dissidents as well as Iranian Americans who are against the IRI (Islamic Republic of Iran) the hotel security attacked the dissidents and journalists.

According to Ms. Abdi, the hotel security attacked Nasrin Mohammadi whose two of her brothers are political prisoners in Iran in Iran to confiscate her video camera as a result of this she fell from a platform.

Ms. Firozeh Ghafarpour (another TV journalists and political activist) started to protest this; she was then viciously attacked with pepper spray. At this point Ms. Dokhi Abdi told the security that she was a reporter and that she was there to report the event, upon stating this she was attacked and she was sprayed in the mouth. Several other individuals were beaten and hand cuffed.

As I write this the victims are being treated in a local hospital emergency room.

dorood bar Iranian e mobarez.

My concern is this:

How come with all the measures supposedly in place against Terrorism in States, the supporters of IRI (Root of International Terrorism) can act so freely, openly, and easily as a Mafia inside U.S.?

any one of this Mafia can pose a danger to the population in States, yet they are moving about freely, so much so that they even hire American Security agents to protect them in their Terrorist Campaigns for Mulallahs!



this completely undermines the entire HOMELAND SECURITY AGENCY!

think about it. Mullahs have a sort of Embassy in Washington, and from Canada, Europe as well as Inside United States, they continue to recruite Terrorist Memebers from all over the world, and all they need to do is plan another 9/11 and simply ask their members ( such as those who beaten up the ac tivists in LA) to simply pick up the plan and ACT UPON THEM! WHILE HIRING U.S. SECURITY FORCES TO PROTECT THEIR A$$ WHILE AT IT!!!

Iranian American lawyers should sue on their behalf, you can't let them get away with this.

Maybe iricrimes.org can help, since they're mostly lawyers

Next time before anyone plans protest actions like this, lineup volunteer lawyers. From now onwards every group must arrange for legal support before actions of this kind!
