Since 1979, Iran has become a bloody platform for eliminating political opponents — through show trials, secret executions, and systematic torture. In Iraq, some post-2003 governments inherited the same tools of repression. The slogans may differ, but the practice is the same:
- Silencing voices
- Eliminating activists
- Weaponizing the judiciary to eliminate opponents
Over 1,200 political executions in Iran in 2025 alone Dozens of detainees in Iraq face execution on politically motivated charges disguised under anti-terror laws.
Who brought the mullahs? Who handed Iraq over to foreign influence? Khomeini, Khamenei, and Rafsanjani did not emerge from a vacuum — they were the product of international engineering that enabled them to seize Iran after the Shah’s fall.
The United States, France, and Britain turned a blind eye to the “Wilayat al-Faqih” project — even offering it media platforms.
In Iraq, after 2003, the state was dismantled and handed to parties aligned with Iran, paving the way for a repeat of the repressive model.
Who brought the mullahs? They came through political vacuum, Western support, regional complicity, and international silence.
Is this a global conspiracy to destroy two nations?
The facts suggest this is not mere “human rights negligence,” but rather:
- International complicity in keeping Iran and Iraq weak
- Preventing any genuine popular awakening
- Keeping wealth under the control of proxy regimes
- Destroying national and religious identity through repression and marginalization
Political executions are not instruments of justice — they are tools to destroy human dignity and break the will of nations.
When will the unjust executions stop?
Political executions in Iran and Iraq will not end unless the following is achieved:
- Separation of judiciary from political power Justice begins with judicial independence — not allegiance to party, sect, or intelligence services.
- Abolishing execution as a political weapon Execution must never be used against dissidents, activists, or the oppressed — only for major crimes after fair trials.
- Internationalizing the execution file The issue must be referred to the International Criminal Court, with an independent UN investigation committee.
- Sustained public and media pressure People must demand their right to life and dignity, condemn every political death sentence, and expose global silence.
- Dismantling regional influence networks Executions will not stop as long as Iran controls Iraq’s judiciary and prisons, and as long as the Iranian regime is built on eliminating opposition.
Report Recommendations:
- Launch an international campaign to immediately halt political executions
- Document every political execution in Iran and Iraq
- Urge the United Nations to conduct an urgent international investigation
- Call on Arab and Muslim peoples to stand in solidarity with the oppressed
- Expose American and European silence in human rights forums
Report Conclusion:
Political execution is not the end of a life — it is the end of a nation. To execute a human is to execute freedom… and the future.
What is happening in Iran and Iraq — systematic political executions met with global silence — is a double crime: the crime of killing, and the crime of complicity.
History will not forgive those who stayed silent, just as it will never forget those who resisted.
But the question that must be asked today — not tomorrow — is:
Will Arabs remain passive spectators? Or has the hour of awakening come, before conscience is assassinated and the gates of salvation are shut?
