Religious Leaders, Human Rights Experts Urge Firm U.S. Policy on Tehran Regime
September 22, 2009In a press conference Monday, human rights experts and religious leaders called on the Obama administration to adopt a firm policy toward Iran's ruling regime and abandon the futile and misguided policy of engagement. The conference marked the start of a campaign by Iranian-American communities against the UN visit of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the declared winner of Iran's rigged June presidential elections. On Wednesday, September 23, several thousand will rally across the UN against Ahmadinejad and the entire regime to echo the chants of "Death to the Dictator," and "The resistance has not died; it's the government that has died," by hundreds of thousands who marched in Iran's major cities last week.
