Summary of Human Rights Violations in Iran – November 2021

The Biden Administration promised us strength against Iran’s leaders. Instead, we got appeasement. Sadly, this report will not prevent the Biden Administration from re-entering the JCPOA. An agreement that will enable Iran to manufacture nukes, finance more terrorism world wide, and commit horrific human rights violations against it’s citizens. Scroll down and watch.

In September 2020, candidate Joe Biden promised that as President, he would call out the Iranian regime for its violations of human rights and detention of political prisoners.
