He added that physical and psychological damages “inflicted on each individual of the Iranian nation in the 2nd and 3rd imposed wars, from child killings and war crimes in Minab and Lamerd to attacks on medical centres, is each a legal file that must be pursued in both domestic and international courts.”

He further stated that from the “murder” of newborns and the elderly to the assassination of his father and predecessor, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, “each is a file among thousands of major legal cases that must be earnestly pursued in domestic and international courts”.

“What is definite is that these criminals must be seized by the collar and brought to justice for their criminal deeds,” he asserted.

Never in my life could I have expected to agree with the Iranian government. But, on this specific issue? I do. There needs to be accountability for this.

    The user said women get beheaded for driving a car in Iran which was false. It conflated saudi arabia with isis with iran which is islamophobic. Talking about women how many women was killed and raped with the west support in palestine, sudan ,libya etc?

      The difference between you and me is that I’m talking about the oppression of women because I care and because it matters, and you are using it as a political talking point.

        Israel kill women daily with the west support. You are a hypocrite with selective outrage . I never said it is ok to punish people for not respecting an extreme view of a religion, i simply reject spreaing lies like women getting killed for driving in Iran

          Fair enough. One of my close friends is Iranian but lives in the US now and she spent a couple days in prison for not covering her hair properly so I guess I’m sensitive about it. My bad

          Wasn’t talking about individual Muslims. Was talking about nations that are Islamic states and follow Sharia law. They all seems to be restrictive on personal rights especially if you happen to be a woman or lgbt.

        Think of it like this…

        The Catholic Church just agreed to pay $700M for child sexual abuse.

        Are you going to attack the local Methodist minister because “Hey, they’re all Christian…”?

        It doesn’t work that way.

          Well sure, if the local Methodist minister had a rule book that said child sex abuse is OK. Maybe it does, considering how often it happens. I wasn’t talking about individual Muslims. Was talking about nations that are Islamic states and follow Sharia law. They all seems to be restrictive on personal rights especially if you happen to be a woman or lgbt. It’s a growing issue with a lot of different cultures these days but i personally think its a bit disingenuous to suggest its islamaphobic to highlight the treatment of women in Islamic states

            Fortunately they are not all the same. For example, there is no comparison between the Taliban in Afghanistan with the UAE.

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_the_United_Arab_Emirates

            When it comes to complaints about Islam, notably stuff like “Honor” killings and such, that is not part of the faith or the Koran. It’s a primitive tribal belief system that’s a holdover from before Islam existed.

            https://wikiislam.net/wiki/Qur'an,_Hadith_and_Scholars:Honor_Killing

            So, no, you can’t paint them all with the same brush.

              And yet all islamic states seem to do horrible things to women / lgbt based on religious tenants.
              Just because some are less bad than others doesn’t mean it isn’t a pattern. Your own wiki link includes this near the start

              There are, however, punishments for various types of Zina (unlawful sexual relations) in Islamic law. Zina includes both fornication (when they are unmarried), for which the punishment is flogging, and adultery (when they are married, but not to each other), for which the punishment is death by stoning.

              I guess that it might be unfair to paint with the exact some brush but its a brush that looks quite similar for each of them.

              UAE does seem to be partly an exception to this however there are still things such as

              Emirati law requires women to obtain a male guardian’s consent to marry. Additionally, a husband has legal rights to request his wife’s obedience, and women can be deemed “disobedient” if they take outside employment without their husband’s consent Etc

              It’s probably more of a fundamentalist state issue than only Islamic states but it doesn’t change the end result
