Continued Police Violence in Iran, Canada Imposes New Sanctions | DW News

Canada says it will sanction senior members of Iran's Revolutionary Guard and ban them from entering the country. This comes as international pressure grows on Iran over its response to protests triggered by the death of a young woman in police custody.

A coroner in Iran has denied Mahsa Amini was killed by blows she suffered in police detention. But dozens of protesters have been killed in an ensuing crackdown and many more have been arrested.

Loosen the vice on the people, for God’s sake! Theocracy? What a joke! If Iran were truly a theocracy, the authorities would never treat women as violently as they so clearly do. And for what? Just for showing a few strands of hair? If this brutal mistreatment of women were truly Allah’s will, He wouldn’t be worthy of being prayed to! Ditto the way that Iranian authorities treat gays. The poor gays of Iran are often put to death.

Iran so clearly needs another revolution; but this time a secular revolution, in order to bring some human rights and decency to the Republic. Sweep the Mullahs away! – © Mark Alexander
