And now it gets complicated
According to Iran's FARS news agency, the Iran Martyrs Foundation plans to compensate “families of the innocent victims of Tehran’s post-election riots.”The problem is that in July 2007, the US Treasury Department designated the Iran Martyr's Foundation as a financial supporter of terrorist organizations, in this case, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Hizbollah.So, now we have a group which was, with tacit approval from the government in Iran, funding terrorism in Lebanon and Gaza, and is now going to give money to the families of Iranians who died at the hands of the same government.Labels: brutality, election, free speech, Iran, vote
