A Black Day in Iranian History
Faithfreedom.org ^ | 2/11/2006 | Potkin Azarmehr

Iranian exiles turned up outside the Iranian embassy in London today, almost all dressed in black, to mark the anniversary of the Islamic revolution in Iran as a black day in the country's history.

British police who allowed Muslim fundamentalist protesters to carry placards enticing the faithful to murder the infidels, initially tried to stop the secular Iranian protesters from playing music, saying it may cause public disorder!

Protest organisers however insisted that they should be allowed to play the Iranian national anthem and other patriotic songs and police eventually backed down.

Protesters also carried posters of Mansour Osanlou, the jailed Iranian bus driver.

The following leaflet was handed out :

The Birth of Global Islamic Terrorism This day in 1979, Islamic fundamentalists took power in Iran . Below is a condensed short list of terrorist and inhumane activities carried out by the Islamists in the last 27 years, inside and outside of Iran .

1978, August 20 Cinema Rex, a movie theater in Abadan, was locked from the outside and set on fire by Islamists, resulting in 377 deaths.

1979 Thousands accused of collaborating with the previous regime are summarily executed without a trial and the right of attorney.

1980 Thousands of Iranian Kurds are massacred by the orders of Ayatollah Khalkhali.

1980 52 American diplomats and staff are taken hostage for 444 days against all international conventions.

1980 Islamists close down all universities and sack non-Islamic academics and students. Iran does not produce any graduates for two years. They call this their “cultural revolution”.

1982 Thousands of political activists are rounded up in street demonstrations and summarily executed, including pregnant women and young teenagers for offences as petty as handing out dissident leaflets.

1983 – Islamic Republic through its terror networks in Lebanon carries out several bombings. These include French barracks, US marines HQ and the US embassy in Beirut .

1980 – 1996, Hundreds of Iranian dissidents who oppose the Islamic Republic are assassinated in Europe and US. Innocent European citizens are murdered or maimed in the process. European governments on some occasions let the assassins escape back to Iran .

1988 August – September, Thousands of Iranian political prisoners who were sentenced to prison by the Islamic regime’s own kangaroo courts, are massacred just before the end of the Iran-Iraq war. Ayatollah Khomeini personally gave the order of the massacre.

1989 Ayatollah Khomeini issues fatwa to murder the British writer, Salman Rushdie. Many are assassinated throughout Europe including publishers and translators of Satanic Verses.

1997-1998 More Iranian dissidents and intellectuals are killed, this time using extra judicial methods.

1999 July - Islamic mercenaries attack student dormitories at dawn. Students are killed and maimed and thrown off three storey buildings. Student protests erupt across 19 cities for six days. The Islamic regime arrests more than 2000 people handing some long sentences to imprisoned students.

Unless they attack us, we aren't going to attack them. Bush will turn this problem over to his successor.

I must agree with Brilliant, sadly.

If the U.S. launched another pre-emptive attack against anyone, even Iran, it would create such a political upheaval, a maelstrom, in this country [the left and a good chunk of the middle would be in the streets] that the Republicans would run and hide while Bush was impeached and convicted.

It's terribly disturbing because if anyplace ever deserved a pre-emptive decapitation, it's Iran. But this country is just too passive -- it pretty much insists on being attacked first -- and having the attack admitted to and bragged about before we will tolerate defending ourselves. Any kind of American attack will only follow the detonation of a nuke by Iran. Pray it's a test, not an attack on Jerusalem.

Reagan's greatest error was skulking out of Lebanon after that attack, instead of working with Israel to demolish Iranian-Syrian terror machine, Hizbollah, Islamic Jihad and the PLO. If effect this was the "Pearl Harbor" before the 9/11 "Pearl Harbor", but one we foolishly chose to ignore.

It's going to end up the same way it was with the Soviet Union. We'll let them have the bomb, and if they use it, we'll blow them to smithereens. That is, unless Hillary is President, in which case she'll do nothing, except blame Bush.

It was this event that prompted me to cease chasing after work in Iran. It was the writing on the wall.
