View Current Signatures

To: Honorable President Of United States George W. Bush, General Secretary of the United Nations Mr. Kofi Annan, U.S. Congress, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mr. John Bolton, Senator Brownback, EU Heads of States, Heads of the world’s democratic states, The United Nation Commission for Human Rights Special Rapporteur, US Secretary of State, the European Parliament, Amnesty International, Reporters Without Borders, Human Rights Watch, and International Criminal Court (ICC)

The undersigned are individually or as a group unequivocally and unconditionally are in favor of regime change in Iran by peaceful means. We believe this could effectively be done through support of the Iranian Opposition Groups within Iran and outside along with world wide economic sanctions, targeting government hierarchy of the Islamic Republic of Iran. We support and respect the aspiration of the people of Iran for freedom and democracy.

We further declare that:

1- Mahmood Ahmadinejad does not represent Iranian people as his election involved fraudulent activities.

2- In the 2nd article of IRI constitution it is stated that the foundation of governing, and legislation only comes from God. Foundation and basis of legislation comes from Quran and living tradition of Prophet Mohammad and his family. “Imam” supreme leader or (Velayate Faghih) is the interpreter of the legislations.
Velayat e Faghih is an unelected body and does not represent Iranians. The position of “Imam” supreme leader or (Velayate Faghih) is contrary to any fundamentals of democracy.

3- Based on the constitution of the IRI, the “Imam” supreme leader or (Velayate Faghih) is the interpreter of the legislations in addition to the fuqaha' of the Guardian Council who are judges in this matter. The guardian council members are selected by the Imam.
Therefore, religious discrimination, killing of the non-Moslems, individual or group execution of the dissidents, amputation of limbs, eye gouging, flogging, torture, raping the virgin dissident females the night before the execution, stoning, property confiscation of the Moslems and non-Moslems, killing of persons who change their religion, killing of homosexuals, valuing women half of a man, killing of children by their fathers or grandfathers, selling daughters at any age for marriage, execution of children , state sponsorship of terrorism and support of religious terrorism worldwide to export the divine rule is considered legal
and in accordance to the religious order.

4- Human Rights violations by the Islamic "Republic" of Iran have reached an unprecedented colossal level of cruelty and barbarism.

5- We further recognize bombing Iran and its infrastructure will drive a wedge between the Iranian people who are the most pro-American nation in the Middle East if not in the world and the west.

6- We have come to the conclusion that the only way to deal with this unelected and undemocratic regime is to deal with it strongly and with a comprehensive set of measures. The measures that we recommend and strongly advocate are as follows:

* Stop, with immediate effect, all international trades with the undemocratic Islamic “Republic” of Iran.
*Stop the purchase of oil from Iran and refrain from signing any new contracts and renewal of any existing ones.
* Blockade Iran’s ports in the Persian Gulf and possibly the Caspian Sea allowing passage of food and medicine.
*Stop all IRI satellite TV and Radio programming to the outside world.
* Cease all Mullahs personal assets outside Iran including its support organization such as Alavi Foundation in New York City.
* Freeze IRI assets outside of Iran and impose prohibition on investment, a travel ban, and asset freezes for government leaders and nuclear scientists.
* Worldwide announcement to all nations that any deals and contracts made with IRI (Islamic Republic of Iran) by any entity is null and void. The IRI does not represent Iranians.
* Publicly identify known IRI agents, arrest and prosecute their agents abroad as promoters of international terrorism and abusers of human rights. Shut down all illegal unregistered agent organizations representing IRI interests, their lobbyist and apologists.
* Close or limit Islamic Republic’s embassies and its activities including travel limits on Iranian diplomats.
* Release the frozen assets of Iran to the IRI opposition to be spent on strike funds and promotion of democracy.
* Expel IRI representatives from UN since the IRI constitution is contrary to the UDHR (Universal Declarations of Human Rights).

Please remember; the key to salvation of Iraq is also in freedom of Iran. The freedom-loving countries of the world must unite and assist Iranian people to end this embarrassment to humanity and civility called Islamic Republic and allow Iran to come back to the arms of the civilized nations.

In helping us, you have stopped the violence in Iraq and have made Iran reach democracy with minimum bloodshed and have preserved the peace and freedom worldwide.

God Bless all of peace and freedom-loving people.


Sincerely,

The Undersigned

Petition 18: A Call to Protect Civil Rights for All Iranians By American Harvard University Students

Sign the Petition NOW



http://www.iranfreedomconcert.com/petition.htm

The crisis over Iran's nuclear program has overshadowed the brutal repression of Iranians by the "Guardian Council" of unelected clerics, headed by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Most Iranians (70%) are under the age of 30 and face an array of laws that restrict basic rights of self-expression. In Iran:
-You can be sentenced to death because of your religious beliefs.
-Criticizing the Supreme Leader on your blog is a crime.
-Women are barred from attending most sporting events.
-Concerts with live singing and mixed seating are banned.
-Women are stoned to death for adultery.
-Gay teenagers are hanged.
-The Supreme Leader has issued a fatwa against women riding bicycles in public.

We who live in freedom recognize that Iranians are denied rights we take for granted. We also recognize that many Iranians, despite overwhelming restrictions, are trying to open up their society through non-violent activism. In particular, hundreds of students are leading a movement for civil rights and freedom.

We stand in solidarity with the Iranian student movement, and we will not remain silent as they face a brutal crackdown from the ruling clerics. We stand in solidarity with the thousands of imprisoned journalists, bloggers, and labor organizers - including prominent dissident Akbar Ganji.

We call upon world leaders to condemn civil rights repression in Iran and to hold the Iranian regime accountable. The fundamental rights of all Iranians cannot be held hostage to diplomatic maneuverings over Iran's nuclear program.

We pledge our support to Iranians struggling to secure basic freedoms, and we will not rest until their civil rights movement succeeds.
