REPOST from Dr. Parmis Khatibi (@parmis99): “Tod

REPOST from Dr. Parmis Khatibi (@parmis99): “Today marks the 75th anniversary of one of the world’s most groundbreaking global pledges: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This landmark document enshrines the inalienable rights that everyone is entitled to as a human being. Freedom, Equality and Justice for All was first declared by Cyrus the Great, the first king of ancient Persia (in 539 B.C.).

He was admired as a liberator of his vast empire because of his respect for human rights. He is “anointed” in the Bible (Is.45:4) as a liberator of God’s people (Is.45:15) and the chosen one (Is.48:14-15). His ideals became the foundation for the American Constitution. His decrees were recorded on a baked-clay cylinder known as the Cyrus Cylinder (recognized as the world’s first charter of human rights). The first four Articles of the UDHR parallels the Cyrus Cylinder.

If you ever get a chance to visit the British Museum, you will see it on display there. You can also visit the sculptural landmark (The Freedom Sculpture - A Shared Dream) in Century City (Santa Monica Blvd) that was a gift from the Iranian American Community (and reflects the values of tolerance, freedom, and appreciation of diversity. https:// freedomsculpture.org/(https:// freedomsculpture.org/)”

Nobel Peace Prize Winner Says Iranian People Will

Nobel Peace Prize Winner Says Iranian People Will Prevail Against Rulers

By Nerijus Adomaitis
OSLO, Dec 10 (Reuters) – The Iranian people will ultimately overcome authoritarianism imposed by a government that has lost legitimacy and public support, Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi (@narges_mohamadi_51) said from prison in a speech read by her children on Sunday.

The Norwegian Nobel committee in October awarded the prize to Mohammadi, 51, for her non-violent fight “against oppression of women in Iran” and the promotion of human rights for all, in a rebuke to Tehran’s theocratic leaders.

Her 17-year-old twins Kiana and Ali Rahmani collected the prize, a gold medal and diploma, at a ceremony in Oslo’s City Hall attended by several hundred guests. The prize includes a cheque for 11 million Swedish crowns (about $1 million).

In her speech, sent from Iran‘s notorious Evin prison, Mohammadi said continued resistance and non-violence were the best strategies to bring about change.

“The Iranian people, with perseverance, will overcome repression and authoritarianism. Have no doubt, this is certain,” she said in her speech read in French.

The women’s rights advocate is serving multiple sentences on charges including spreading propaganda against the Islamic Republic after her last arrest in November 2021.

“I write this message from behind the high, cold walls of a prison,” Mohammadi said, adding that her life and lives of many activists in Iran had been a constant struggle “to stay alive”.

Mohammadi was symbolically represented on stage in Oslo by her portrait and an empty chair, highlighting that she is among only a handful of laureates to be prevented from attending the ceremony since the award’s 1901 inception.

She was awarded the prize just over a year following 22-year-old Mahsa Amini’s death in the custody of Iranian morality police after allegedly violating rules related to the hijab, an Islamic headscarf.

JERUSALEM, Dec 10 (Reuters) – Israeli Prime Mini

JERUSALEM, Dec 10 (Reuters) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday and voiced displeasure with “anti-Israel positions” taken by Moscow’s envoys at the United Nations, an Israeli statement said.

Russia backed a U.N. Security Council resolution for a Gaza truce, which was vetoed by the United States on Friday. Speaking to Putin, Netanyahu also voiced “robust disapproval” of Russia’s “dangerous” cooperation with Iran, the Israeli statement said.
The Kremlin said Russia was ready to give all possible assistance to alleviate the suffering of civilians and de-escalate the conflict.

“Vladimir Putin reaffirmed the principle position of rejecting and condemning terrorism in all its forms,” the Kremlin said in a statement.

“At the same time, it is extremely important that countering terrorist threats does not lead to such grave consequences for the civilian population.”

Russia’s foreign minister on Sunday said an international monitoring mission should go to Gaza to monitor the humanitarian situation.

BAGHDAD, Dec 9 (Reuters) – Attacks by Iraq’s K

BAGHDAD, Dec 9 (Reuters) – Attacks by Iraq’s Kataeb Hezbollah militia against U.S. interests on Friday are the start of “new rules of engagement,” a security official from the group said in a social media post.

The Iran-aligned group, while not claiming responsibility for a rare attack on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad on Friday, claimed the embassy was a forward operating base for planning military operations.

The attack was condemned by the U.S. and by Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, who said it was an act of terrorism against a diplomatic mission.
But Kataeb Hezbollah (KH) said the facility was a base involved in planning military operations. Those who described it as a diplomatic mission were “subservient” and self-interested, Abu Ali al-Askari, a security official from the group, said in a social media post.

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, in a Friday call with Sudani, singled out KH and another group, Haraket Hezbollah al-Nujaba, for the recent targeting of U.S. personnel and said the U.S. reserved its right to respond.

U.S. officials have reported more than 80 attacks against U.S. interest in Iraq and Syria since mid-October, most claimed by an umbrella-group of Iran-aligned Iraqi militias over Washington’s backing of Israel in its war in Gaza.

The group, which goes by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, claimed 11 attacks against U.S. forces on Friday, the most in a single day since they began in mid-October.

NICOSIA, Dec 10 (Reuters) – Two Iranians have be

NICOSIA, Dec 10 (Reuters) – Two Iranians have been detained in Cyprus for questioning over suspected planning of attacks on Israeli citizens living in Cyprus, a Cypriot newspaper reported on Sunday.

The two individuals were believed to be in the early stages of gathering intelligence on potential Israeli targets, the Kathimerini Cyprus newspaper said without citing sources.

The paper added that the Iranians were political refugees in contact with a person linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
A senior Cyprus official declined to comment, citing policy on issues concerning national security.

Reuters was unable to verify the details in the newspaper report.

Barely a 40-minute flight from Israel, Cyprus is a popular holiday and investment destination for thousands of Israelis.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in June said that an Iranian attack against Israeli targets in Cyprus had been thwarted. Tehran denied being behind any alleged plot to attack Israelis in Cyprus.

DUBAI, Dec 10 (Reuters) – A fire at a small refi

DUBAI, Dec 10 (Reuters) – A fire at a small refinery in eastern Iran‘s Birjand special economic zone caused two explosions on Sunday and remains out of control, Iran‘s state media said.

No casualties were reported but the damage has yet to be assessed, state media said, adding that all 18 reservoirs at the refinery have caught fire.

“The initial stages of the fire consumed 1.5 million litres of fuel,” Iran‘s semi-official Fars news agency said.
