When you allow the justice to be sacrificed, it turns against you.
ByReza Hossein Borr
When you choose silence over the execution of one person, you allow the execution of the next person to happen. When you allow the truth to be sacrificed once, you allow the truth to be sacrificed again and again.
Massacres always begin with the execution of one person and when the executioner does not receive unbearable responses, he will continue to kill again and again until the killings turns into massacres.
The international community chose to focus on the possibility of production of nuclear weapon by the Iranian regime as it may endanger people outside Iran. They never gave sufficient attention and focus to the massacres that were carried out inside Iran. The Iranian regime is not allowed to become a danger to the outside world but it is ok if it hangs 21 Iranians in one day.
When the international community did not become adequately vocal about the executions at the beginning of the revolution, the regime found out that it can continue the executions at later stages at larger scale. When the Iranian political figures and human rights activists chose to be silent on the executions of Iranians at the beginning of the revolution; they allowed the Iranian regime to extend the executions to those who have partly participated in the executions of the previous ones.
The truth is sacrificed for interests but somehow the truth manages to find those interests and destroy them. When a person makes certain calculations and weighs the merits of the truth and his own interests and concludes that his interests are more important than the truth, somehow the truth will get back to the person. The Iranian revolutionaries consciously or unconsciously participated in the execution of their opponents and again when the government found that the executions are acceptable to certain groups in Iran, it extended the executions to those who agreed to executions of the regime’s opponents before them.
Tyranny starts from the moment that you see somebody being oppressed and you do nothing about it. The tyrant uses your silence as an indication of his righteousness to oppress. The oppressed sees your silence as an indication of your satisfaction over his oppression and convinces himself that he deserved oppression. Your silence confirms the righteousness of the tyrant’s policy of oppression.
When the Western world and Arab countries did not protest strongly over the execution of the Iranian citizens, the Iranian regime concluded that it was right in what it did and therefore, concluded that it could do the same thing to others and consequently took American diplomats as hostage. When the Americans did not take any action to release their hostages, the Iranian regime concluded that it can take hostages in other countries and therefore, used its proxy agents in theMiddle East to take the Western citizens as hostage. When the Americans and the western countries did not take any action to stop the Iranian regime from taking their citizens further as hostage, the Iranian government began to plant huge bombs in different places that they were frequented by the Americans and the Western people.
The silence encouraged Iranian government to take the next step towards widening its terrorist activities. If the Americans had taken serious actions to release their diplomats, today Iran would not be an international threat to its neighbour, international community and its own people. The silence of the Americans and the Western powers allowed the Iranian regime to reach the present state of power in the Middle East.
The Americans and their allies realised from the early days of occupation of Iraq that the Iranian regime was interfering in the affairs ofIraq. They remained silent. The Iranian regime concluded that it can go one step higher. She began to train and finance the Shia groups that had close allies with. The Americans either chose to be silent or did not take any action to stop her. And Iran concluded that it can go one step further. She started training, arming and financing the Alqaedah members.
The Americans and the allies didn’t take any tangible action and the Iranian government concluded that it can take even more steps. She started arming and financing the Sunnis. Still the Americans did not take any action and therefore, the Iranian regime started killing Americans and her allies and concluded that it can practically run a large part of Iraq. This is how now the Iranian agents are governing the Southern part of Iraq which is the most important part of the country. This part of Iraq is where oil is, it is where that the country gets connected to sea, it is where the route between Baghdad and South and the rest of the country exists.
The British have withdrawn from Basra. Don’t they really know what happens in
Basra? Don’t they know that the part of the country is under full control of Iranian revolutionary guards and its agents? They do know that. But why they withdrew from
Basra then? This is the question.
The British wants Iran to have possession of the South part ofIraq. Iran has fought several wars with the Ottoman Empire to capture Basra and the holy cities of Najaf and
Karbala. Now God through the British facilitated that.
A large number of Iranian politicians are the victims of their own mistakes when they sacrificed the truth for their interests. The issue of justice was not deeply embedded in their conscience. Justice cannot survive when the truth is sacrificed. And those who allowed the justice to be sacrificed, they allowed themselves to be the target of sacrifice. They just sacrificed justice for some temporary gains.
The Americans were silent when the Iranian trained terrorists targeted Iraqis of different sects and religions. Their silence encouraged Iranian regime to target the Americans. The Americans accepted to be killed again and again and still did not take any action. This again encouraged the regime that they can continue the policy of killing not only the Iraqis but the Americans.
It was the American and the British silence that encouraged the Iranian involvement in the affairs ofIraq in the first place. The Iranians thought they were allowed to get involved and they would continue to get involved in different stages until they are stopped. Neither the Americans nor the British and their allies have stopped the Iranians from interfering in the affairs of Iraq, killing Americans and western citizens. That means that the regime can still continue to expand its involvement and interference to a greater scale.
But when enough will be enough? This, we will not know until the Americans, the British and their allies practically take some wide range actions to stop the Iranian regime. When that will happen, I cannot know now. When the Americans would stop them? The Americans and the British have some plans. They know when and where to stop the Iranian regime.
It seems that Iran is still allowed to advance further in the Arab world, but how far? We do not now that.

Turkish incursion in Iraq and the emergence of a Kurdish state
Turkish incursion in Iraq and the emergence of a Kurdish state
By Reza Hosein Borr
Having power does not make one right. Not having power does not make one wrong. Those who are in power now think that they are right in whatever they do and those who do not have the power are wrong in whatever they do. When Stalin was in power he thought that he was right in everything he did but now everybody has realised he was wrong in everything he did.
The fall of somebody who is in power begins the moment that he thinks that having power has made him right. Ideology does not make anybody right. Religion does not make anybody right. Interests do not make anybody right. Power does not make anybody right. Being right does not come from any of these sources. Being right comes from adhering to the values of justice, fairness, humanness, equality and the good deeds.
Victory brings glory. Defeat brings shame. When people become victorious they take glory with grace and pride. When they get defeated they cannot handle the shame and therefore, they begin to blame others. When the Ottoman Empire was on its peak, people of different religions were not considered as threat to the security of the state. In fact people of different religions were considered as great assets who brought different talents to the empire. Once the decline of the empire began, the rulers could not handle the shame of being defeated regularly by the Russians and other powers and they began to blame the Armenians, the Arabs, the Kurds, and many others. That's what the Ottoman Empire did after it was defeated by the Russians.
They started blaming the Armenians who were Christians.
By 1914, Ottoman authorities had already begun a propaganda drive to present Armenians living in the Ottoman Empire as a threat to the country's security. An Ottoman naval officer in the War Office described the planning: In order to justify this enormous crime the requisite propaganda material was thoroughly prepared in Istanbul. It included such statements as. "The Armenians are in league with the enemy. They will launch an uprising in Istanbul, kill off the Ittihadist leaders and will succeed in opening the straits of the Dardanless."1
The beginning of blaming the Armenians for their defeat was the beginning of their total collapse. The blaming mind leads always to failure.
The Armenian people had always lived in that part of world. They were sometimes under the rule of the Persian Empire. After the decline of the Persian Empire, they were under the control of the Ottoman Empire first and then under the Russian empire and the Soviet Union. Like Greeks and Jews, the Armenians were labelled as Dhimmis and, "they were subject to laws different from those applied to Muslims." 2
"In May 1915, Mehmet Talat Pasha requested the cabinet .. to legalize the deportations of the Armenians of Anatolia. On May 1915 CUP Central Committee passed the Temporary Law of Deportation, giving the Ottoman government and military authorization to deport anyone it "sensed" as a threat to national security." 3
Several months later, the Temporary Law of Expropriation and Confiscation was passed, stating that all property, including land, livestock, and homes belonging to Armenians, was to be confiscated by the authorities. Ottoman parliamentary representative, Ahmed Reza protested the legislation:
"It is unlawful to designate the Armenian assets as “abandoned goods” for the Armenians, the proprietors, did not abandon their properties voluntarily; they were forcibly, compulsorily removed from their domiciles and exiled. Now the government through its efforts is selling their goods… If we are a constitutional regime functioning in accordance with constitutional law we can’t do this. This is atrocious. Grab my arm, eject me from my village, then sell my goods and properties, such a thing can never be permissible. Neither the conscience of the Ottomans nor the law can allow it."4
This is a great statement by an Ottoman parliamentary representative but those who had forged a mind of blaming others for their own defeats did not stop the killing of the people who did not have any role in their defeat. The massacre of the Armenians continued systematically. The Christian world read the news every day in their newspapers and realised that only way that they can rescue the Armenians was to destroy the Ottoman Empire. The New York Times reported almost daily on the mass murder of the Armenian people, describing the process as "systematic", "authorized" and "organized by the government." Theodore Roosevelt would later characterize this as "the greatest crime of the war." 5
It was the leadership of the Ottoman Empire that provided all the ingredients for its own destruction.
There were a lot of politicians who supported the massacre of the Armenians but there were also some intellectuals and politicians that condemned it. The majority of the people chose to be silent. It was the supporters of the Armenian massacres and those who became silent that caused the destruction of one of the greatest empires in the Islamic world. If the people of Ottoman Empire had stood up and stopped the killing of the Armenians at that time, they were likely to have their empire still in place today. Their grandchildren would not need to hide their crimes or express regret.
Today the situation is the same in Turkey. There are those who have forgotten the genocide of the Armenians. There are those who have denied the genocide. There are those who have concealed the genocide and all of them are determined to engage in another genocide bringing the same excuses and plans for the extermination of innocent people of the Kurdish origin.
The Kurdish people have lived in that area for thousands of years. They have not chosen to be under the control of the Turkish government. They have not chosen to be under the control of Iranian or Iraqi government. They happened to live there and therefore, they have a natural right to have a decent life wherever they live under any banner or country.
The genocide of the Jewish and Armenian people was conducive to the creation of two Jewish and Armenian states. The genocide of Croats, Bosnians, and other peoples of Yugoslavia caused the creation of several new countries and the collapse of that state.
Maybe Turkey today follows the footsteps of its predecessor and pursues the same policies of extermination and genocide. If this is the case, the majority of the Turkish politicians would support wide-ranging incursions into the Kurdish areas and began another genocide which will end in the collapse of Turkey and emergence of a Kurdish state.
The history will be repeated. Another genocide will happen. Another country will disappear and another will appear.

مصطفی پور محمدی :
اشرار و تروریست ها با تحریک آمریکا و انگلیس در پی تشدید اختلافات قومی هستند
وزیر کشور ضمن تقدیر از استاندار سیستان و بلوچستان تاکید کرد که اشرار و گروهک های تروریستی با تحریک و هدایت آمریکا و انگلیس هدفی جز تشدید اختلافات قومی و کند کردن آهنگ توسعه ندارند .
به گزارش خبرگزاری مهر، وزیر کشور طی نامه ای از اقدامات استاندار و مسئولان امنیتی و انتظامی استان سیستان و بلوچستان در گروگانگیری اخیر تقدیم کرد .
متن این نامه بدین شرح است: خبر آزادی سریع و صحت و سلامت شهروندانی که در منطقه چابهار توسط اشرار به گروگان گرفته شده بودند موجب مسرت و خوشحالی گردید. اشرار و گروهک های تروریستی که با تحریک آمریکا و انگلیس و با هدایت و رهبری دستگاه های جاسوسی بیگانه هدفی جز تشدید اختلافات قومی و ناامنی جلوه دادن منطق تجاری برای سرمایه گذاری اقتصادی و کند کردن آهنگ توسعه و محروم نگاه داشتن مردم غیور و ستمدیده سیستان و بلوچستان ندارند، این بار نیز در رسیدن به اهداف خود ناکام ماندند.
بی شک توفیق بزرگ مدیران پرتلاش استان حاصل هماهنگی کامل و موثر تمامی نیروهای انتظامی ، نظامی و امنیتی و اعضای شورای تامین استان و به ویژه قرارگاه رسول اکرم(ص) می باشد.
در این عملیات که با همکاری صمیمانه وزارت کشور و پلیس پاکستان انجام و منجر به آزاد سازی و بازگشت تمامی گروگان ها به میهن عزیز خود گردید، عزم و اراده جدی دوتل پاکستان برای بالا بردن ضریب ایمنی مرز مشترک خود با ایران در چارچوب پیمان مشترک ایمنی فیمابین دو کشور قابل تقدیر است.
اشرار و دشمنان قسم خورده اسلام بدانند که مردم غیور و دیندار سیستان و بلوچستان دشمنان خود را به خوبی شناخته اند.
نظام مقدس جمهوری اسلامی در سرکوب شرارت ها و فتنه خواهی ها ذره ای اغماض نخواهد کرد و تمام توان و تلاش خود را در توسعه و آبادانی سیستان و بلوچستان و تامین امنیت مردم شریف این استان به کار خواهد بست.
این پیروزی ظفرمند را به مردم شریف استان سیستان و بلوچستان ، جنابعالی و اعضای محترم شورای تامین استان تبریک گفته و از خداوند توفیق شما را برای خدمت رسانی صادقانه در راه اهداف نظام مقدس اسلامی مسئلت دارم.

به نام خدابدينوسيله جنبش مقاومت مردمي ايران به اطلاع عموم مردم بلوچسان و ايران مي رساند كه جنبش با كشتار و هدف قرر دادن افراد عادي اعم از شيعه وسني ,فارس و بلوچ شديدا مخالف است وهر گونه تعرض به مردم عادي را مغاير با اصول اخلاقي و موازين بشري مي داند لذا اگر در حادثه محور ايرانشهر چابهار افراد عادي هدف قرار گرفتند جنبش مقاومت شديدا اين عمل را محكوم مي نمايد و از اين گروه وديگر گروههاي نظامي بلوچستان كه اهداف سياسي دنبال مي كنند مي خواهد از هدف قرار دادن مردم عادي بپرهيزند و اهداف نظامي را مورد مطالعه قرار داده ودر برنامه كاري خود قرار دهند زيرا هدف قرار دادن افراد عادي در گذشته نشان داده كه هيچ سودي براي مردم و مبارزين نداشته و رژيم از اين گونه حركات هم در داخل و هم در سطح بين المللي بهره برداري نموده است و به بهانه اين گونه حركات سركوب و اعدام را در بلوچستان گسترش داده است.البته ناگفته نماند كه محرك اصلي اين گونه واكنشها خود رژيم بوده وهست ورژيم با اعمال غير انساني و اعدامهاي وحشيانه و كشتار مردم بيگناه وعادي بلوچ بسياري را به چنين واكنشهاي انتقام جويانه سوق مي دهد اگرچه جنبش نمي خوهد چنين اعمالي را توجيه نمايد ولي به هر حال عامل اصلي اين حواث خود رژيم ولايت فقيه ست.جنبش مقاومت مردمي ايران جندالله

پليس پاكستان "اشرار" حادثه چابهار را تبعه كشورش ميداند
خبرگزاري فارس: سخنگوي استانداري سيستان و بلوچستان گفت: پليس پاكستان مدعي آن است كه اشرار حادثه چابهار به ايرانشهر تبعه كشور پاكستان هستند و به همين دليل از استرداد انان سرباز ميزند.حسنعلي نوري پيش از ظهر امروز در گفتوگو با خبرنگار فارس در زاهدان تصريح كرد: علارغم آنكه اشرار حادثه چابهار به ايرانشهر توسط نيروي انتظامي شناسايي شده و با توجه به وابستگي آنان به گروهك تروريستي جندالله تابعيت ايراني آنان مشخص است ولي پليس پاكستان با بهانه تراشي و بيان اينكه آنان پاكستاني هستند تمايلي براي استرداد اشرار به ايران را ندارد.نوري گفت: 2 كشور ايران و پاكستان بر اساس توافق 2 طرفه ملزم به استرداد مجرميني هستند كه به خاك 2 كشور متواري ميشوند و رويكرد پليس پاكستان حاكي از نوعي تلاش براي عدم استرداد مجرمان شرور حادثه چابهار به ايرانشهر به كشورمان هستنديك منبع اگاه امنيتي در استان سيستان و بلوچستان نيز به خبرنگار فارس گفت: به دليل آنكه اشرار حادثه چابهار به گروهك جندالله ـ وابسته به دستگاههاي امنيتي آمريكا ـ مربوط ميشوند و انجام عمليات كور تروريستي از سوي آنان در اين شرايط كه استان سيستان و بلوچستان مسير توسعه امنيت و پيشرفت پايدار را طي ميكند، امريكا پاكستان را تحت فشار قرار داده تا با عدم استرداد اين اشرار به ايران، حلقه مفقوده مستند دخالت آشكار دستگاهاي امنيتي و اطلاعاتي آمريكا در مسائل داخلي ايران برملا نشود.

بلوچستان؛ یک مسئله و سه کشور
دوشنبه، 29 مرداد ماه 1386 برابر با 2007-08-20توماج طاهبازهنوز اندکی از خبر ناپديد شدن دو جهانگرد بلژيکی در استان سيستان و بلوچستان و آزادی بی سر و صدای آن ها نگذشته بود، که روز یکشنبه هفته جاری در جاده ايرانشهر به چابهار گروهی از افراد مسلح چند شهروند ايرانی را به گروگان گرفتند ـبر پايه گزارش های رسیده، اين گروه سوار بر خودروهايی بودند که به رنگ ماشين های نيروی انتظامی در آمده بود و از فاصله دور با ماشين های معمول پليس تفاوتی نداشته است ـاما تنها يک روز از اين گروگانگيری نگذشت، که خبر آزادی گروگان ها- نخست به شکل خبرهای غير رسمی- در رسانه های رسمی يران منتشر شد ـساعتی بعد، معاون سياسی امنيتی استانداری سيستان و بلوچستان به خبرگزاری رسمی جمهوری اسلامی ايران، ايرنا، گفت: افراد مسلحی که شهروندان ايرانی را گروگان گرفته بودند، به خاک پاکستان فرار کرده بودند و بعد از مدتی با همکاری مقام ها و ماموران امنيتی پاکستان گروگان ها آزاد شدند ـبه گفته اين مقام استانداری، نيروهای پاکستانی محل اختفای گروگانگيرها را محاصره کردند و با آن ها درگير شدند ـنا آرامی ها در مرز ايران، پاکستان و افغانستان طی سال های گذشته نيز وجود داشته است. برخی ريشه ناآرامی ها را نارضايتی های قومی و برخی تنها ناشی از حضور قاچاقچيان و گروه های مسلح در منطقه می دانند ـفريدون ابراهيمی، گزارشگر راديو افغانستان آزاد در پاکستان، به راديو فردا می گويد: «مقام های نيروهای سرحدی [مرزبان] پاکستان تاييد کرده اند، هنگامی که رباينگان می خواستند گروگان ها را به جای ديگری انتقال دهند آن ها اشاره کردند که موتورشان [خودرويشان] را متوقف کنند. آن ها در مقابل به سربازان تيراندازی کردند و به دليل تبادل آتش، بيست و يک گروگان ايرانی که در ميان آن ها شماری از کارکنان وزارت تعليم [آموزش و پرورش] ايران هم بودند آزاد شدند ـگروگانگيری اخير در جنوب شرقی ايران اولين نمونه از اين دست نيست ـنا آرامی ها در مرز ايران، پاکستان و افغانستان طی سال های گذشته نيز وجود داشته است. برخی ريشه ناآرامی ها را نارضايتی های قومی و برخی تنها ناشی از حضور قاچاقچيان و گروه های مسلح در منطقه می دانند ـبا اين همه کارشناسان به اين نکته بيش از هر چيز اشاره می کنند که بدون همکاری دولت ها با يکديگر، نمی توان گروگانگيری ها و خشونت ها را متوقف کرد ـمقام های افغانستان، پاکستان و مقام های ایالات متحده آمریکا، ايران را متهم می کنند که در خشونت های افغانستان دست دارند ـاز سوی ديگر برخی از مقام های استانی ايران، پاکستان را متهم می کنند که به خانه امن آن چه «اشرار» می خوانند تبديل شده است ـبه گفته افراسياب ختک، تحليگر مقيم پاکستان، ايران و پاکستان، رقابت در افغانستان را به حل مسائل امنيتی ترجيح داده اند ـآقای ختک می گويد: «پاکستان و ايران هنوز نتوانسته اند ميان يکديگر هماهنگی ايجاد کنند و حاضر نيستند ميان خود مصالحه کنند. اما اين ماجرايی که اتفاق افتاد خوشايند است که نيروهای دو کشور با هم همکاری داشتند. اين مسئله خطر مشترکی برای همه کشورهای منطقه است ـخبرگزای مهر در ايران گزارش داده است که در جريان درگيری ها با گروگانگيرها، بيست و هشت نفر آزاد شدند و يک نفر جان باخته است و این در حالی است که خبرگزاری فارس خبر از آزادی بيست و يک نفر از گروگان ها می دهد ـخبرگزاری های ايران برای مدتی اشاره مستقيمی به نام گروه، گروه ها يا شخص سامان دهنده اين گروگانگيری نکردند. اما در پاکستان بلافاصله پس از آزادی گروگان ها، نام عبدالمالک ريگی در روزنامه انگليسی زبان داون، چاپ اسلام آباد به عنوان رهبر گروگانگيرها آمده است ـبلوچستان و مرز مشترک هر سه کشور به يک منطقه تاکتيکی مهم تبديل شده است، که بسياری از گروه های پيکارجوی مسلح در آن جمع شده اند. اين يک چيزی است که همه منطقه را ناآرام کرده است. اگر سياست ها هماهنگ شود و نيروهای امنيتی با غافلگيری عمل کنند می توانند ناآرامی ها را از ميان بردارند ـیک تحلیلگر پاکستانیفريدون ابراهيمی می گويد: «نيروهای سرحدی پاکستان گفتند که يکی از گروگان ها و دو رباينده هلاک [کشته] شده اند و هفده نفر هم که از گروه عبدالمالک ريگی هستند دستگير شده اند ـناآرامی در مرز سه کشوراما چرا مرز سه کشور افغانستان، پاکستان و ايران همواره نا آرام است و راه حل پايان دادن به اين ناآرامی ها چيست؟افراسياب ختک، تحليگر در پاکستان معتقد است: «بلوچستان و مرز مشترک هر سه کشور به يک منطقه تاکتيکی مهم تبديل شده است، که بسياری از گروه های پيکارجوی مسلح در آن جمع شده اند. اين يک چيزی است که همه منطقه را ناآرام کرده است. اگر سياست ها هماهنگ شود و نيروهای امنيتی با غافلگيری عمل کنند می توانند ناآرامی ها را از ميان بردارند ـاخيرا نشست مشترکی برای ايجاد امنيت در مرزهای افغانستان و پاکستان ميان مقام ها و کارشناسان دو کشور برگزار شد، به نام جرگه امن ـهدف از برگزاری این نشست، ايجاد امنيت در مرزهای دو کشور است که کارشناسان معتقدند بر ايران نير تاثير می گذارد ـبرشنا نظری، گزارشگر راديو افغانستان آزاد در کابل می گويد: تحليگران مطبوعات مستقل افغانستان معتقدند تضمين های اجرايی بايد توسط دولتمردان ارائه شود و در اين مورد خوشبينی های چندانی وجود ندارد ـبه گفته فريدون ابراهيمی، خبری از کشته، زخمی يا دستگير شدن عبدالمالک ريگی مخابره نشده است و او اصلا در محل درگيری حضور نداشت ـاستان سيستان و بلوچستان در سال های اخير صحنه برخی اقدامات خشونت بار و گروگانگيری هايی بوده است که مقام های ايران می گويند، «قاچاقچيان مواد مخدر» و «اشرار» مسببان آن ها هستند ـدر کشورهای منطقه، اين گروه ها با نام های مختلفی خوانده می شوند، شورشی، افراطی و نظير اين ها. اما در همه موارد و با هر نامی، فعاليت اين افراد به شکل مسلحانه انجام شده است و در بيشتر موارد قربانيان اصلی شهروندان غير مسلح بوده اند ـرادیو فردا
اطلاعیه جدید جنبش مقاومت مردمی ایران
دوشنبه بیست و نهم مرداد 1386 ساعت 22:47
به نام خدابدینوسیله جنبش مقاومت مردمی ایران (جندالله ) ادعاهای رسانه رژیم به وابسته بودن عاملان حادثه محور ایرانشهر _ چابهار به جنبش را شدیدا تکذیب نموده و اعلام می دارد که این گروه هیچ ارتباطی با جنبش مقاومت نداشته و اعضای جنبش در این عملیات هیچگونه مشارکتی نداشته اند همچنین از اعضای جنبش هیچ کس در خاک پاکستان دستگیر نشده است زیرا دلاورمردان جنبش مقاومت هرگز در خاک پاکستان نیستند تا دستگیر شوند و جنبش استفاده از خاک دیگران را برای مبارزه منافی موازین بین المللی می داند و نیازی هم به استفاده از خاک پاکستان ندارد و همه مبارزان جنبش در کوههای بلوچستان و در پایگاههای خویش به سر می برند.البته ناگفته نماند که جوانان بلوچستان از جنایات رژیم علیه مردم عادی و اعدامهای فله ای جوانان بی گناه بلوچ به تنگ آمده و با تشکیل گروههای کوچکی اقدام به عملیاتهای تلافی جویانه می نمایند و در حقیقت آفریننده این گونه حوادث رژیم مستکبر و فاسد ضد بشری ولایت فقیه است.

Balochistan news July 07
Baluchistan news
Baluchistan People’s Front,
IranReza Hossein Borr
London, 2 Aug.07, Baluchistan People’s Front– Two Baluch young men were hanged yesterday in Zahedan, capital of Baluchistan, Iran. The news agencies reported that they were sentenced to death because of struggling against the government. The government accused them of threatening national security.
The Baluch people are engaged in an armed campaign against the government because of widespread discrimination and police brutalities in the region. The official news agencies of Iran reported that 27 Baluch have been executed, hanged or shot dead in July 07.
The Iranian government accuses insurgents of having connections with the Western powers and insurgents and the Western powers have rejected these claims. The Baluch political fighters are seeking to establish a federal system in Iran in which all Iranian people and nationalities have the right to rule themselves.
London, 31 July.07,Baluchistan People’s Front– New York Times reported on 23 July that 3300 Iranian security guards have been killed in the restive province of Baluchistan since the revolution. The New York Times quoted Iranian authorities as saying that these security forces have been killed either by drug traffickers or political fighters. Baluchistan is a Sunni dominated area and the fanatic Shia government of Iran has tried to portrait its freedom fighters as drug traffickers although there have been some armed conflict between drug traffickers and the Iranian security forces. The majority of armed struggle in Baluchistan is conducted by the Baluch fighters who have been forced to take action as a result of the regime’s brutalities and ethnic cleansing in Baluchistan.
London, 31 July.07, Baluchistan People’s Front– The Iranian authorities announced that 11 of its security forces have been killed and 9 have been critically injured near Zahedan, capital of Baluchistan by Baluch fighters on 23 July. Baztab News site quoted Iranian revolutionary guards sources as saying the Baluch fighters left the area without any casualty but Fars News Agency reported that of four Baluch fighters have been killed and six have been arrested.
Baluchistan Fighters Organization that has close links with the People’s Resistance Movement of Iran accepted responsibility for this incident and claimed that all its members have safely returned to their headquarters. The armed clash happened in Peer Suran Mountains which are unreachable by ordinary people. These mountains have been used previously by Baluch guerrilla fighters many times.
The Iranian government sent helicopters and aeroplanes to bombard these mountains but the Baluch fighters had already left the area to other safe places. The sources close to People’s Resistance Movement of Iran said that they have not been directly involved in these operations but had some links with the fighters.
After these military operations the government of Iran occupied a large area around Zahedan and imposed a kind of martial law. The witnesses said that a large number of innocent people that lived in the area have been arrested and tortured. They are likely to be forced to confess some kind of associations with the Baluch fighters and they may face execution like many others in similar cases.
London, 31 July.07, Baluchistan People’s front– There have been a series of assassinations in Baluchistan but nobody has accepted the responsibility for them. Some reports claimed that four people have been assassinated in this manner. Some sources believe that the assassinated people were killed by the Iranian security forces to arouse tribal conflicts and tensions in the region.
The Iranian government has a long history of pursuing the policy of divide and rule. A top security colonel that was arrested by the People’s Resistance Movement of Iran confessed that the regime has been involved in formulating and implementing secret policies to divide different tribes and families and incite them against each other. This man accepted that when ever the two tribes or warring factions of the same tribe reached some arrangements for peace, the security forces killed one member from each tribe and blamed it on the other side so that the killings and tensions among the Baluch people continue. He admitted that this is the official policy of the regime regarding Baluchistan and Baluch people.
London, 31 July.07, Baluchistan People’s front– Iranian officials news agency Iran reported that in this month 27 Baloch people have been killed by security forces and five have been executed or hanged in public. Last month 25 Baluch were executed in different provinces of Iran. According to Iranian authorities 700 Baluch people had received death sentences from the Iranian Supreme Court and were awaiting death. To avoid the backlash by Baluch people, the Iranian regime decided to transfer the condemned-to-death-Baluch to other provinces and executed them there.
The Iranian authorities also announced that they have arrested 1456 Baluch in May 07.
The Sunni Baluch people of Iran have been systematically deprived of their basic human rights in Iran since the beginning of the revolution. According to all surveys by the United Nations, Baluchistan is the poorest province of Iran. Unemployment is highest among all other provinces and life expectancy in Baluchistan is fifteen years less than other parts of Iran. Illiteracy is high and poverty is rampant. Ethnic cleansing is pursued quite secretly. There has not been even one minister, deputy minister, ambassador, general or any other highly ranking official from Baluchistan in the last 30 years. The process of Persianisation and Shiaeezation of the Baluch Sunni people is also underway. The regime is determined to change the identity of the Baluch people completely and the Baluch people are resisting it by all its might.
Civil campaigning is banned in Baluchistan and nobody can get involved in peaceful political activities. The Baluch people, therefore have no any other alternative but defending their identity and the land by the same tools and strategies that the opinion regime is using against them.

اعدامات جديدة ضد البلوش في ايران
GMT 19:30:00 2007 الإثنين 6 أغسطس
أسامة مهدي
أسامة مهدي من لندن: اكدت جبهة شعب بلوشستان الايرانية اليوم تنفيذ السلطات الايرانية حكم الاعدام باثنين من الشبان البلوش شنقا في مدينة زاهدان عاصمة بلوشستان ايران. وقالت الجبهة في بيان اليوم ان السلطات الايرانية أعدمت امس أثنين من الشبان البلوش شنقا في مدينة زاهدان عاصمة بلوشستان ايران "لمواقفهما ضد الحكومة الايرانية.
واضافت في بيان وقعه امينها العام رضا حسين بر ان التمييز العنصري والممارسات الوحشية لقوى الامن هي التي تدفع الشعب البلوشي الى اللجوء الى العمل المسلح . واشارت الى ان السلطات الايرانية نفذت في اوقات سابقة اعدام 27 من البلوش شنقا او رميا بالرصاص. وتتهم الحكومة الضحايا بوجود صلات لهم مع أطراف غربية ولكن الاوساط الاهوازية والدول الغربية ترفض هذه الاتهامات . وقالت الجبهة ان البلوش في واقع الامر يناضلون سياسيا بهدف اقامة نظام فيدرالى فى ايران لكافة الشعوب والقوميات يسمح لها أن تحكم نفسها بنفسها وهذا حق طبيعي.
واشارت الجبهة في بيانها الى انه يعرف عن اقليم بلوشستان ان سكانه يتشكلون من السنة والشيعة ولكن تحاول الحكومة الايرانيه تسعة لاضفاء صورة سلبية عن الناشطين من اجل الحرية والصاق تهمة تجارة المخدرات بهم "بالرغم من عدم نفينا لحدوث بعض النزاعات المسلحه بين مهربي المخدرات وقوات الامن الايرانيه". وقالت ان العمل المسلح في بلوشستان يقوم به مقاتلون بلوش اضطروا الى اتخاذ هذا الاجراء كنتيجه حتمية لوحشية النظام و ممارسته التطهير العرقي في بلوشستان.
واضافت الجبهة ان السلطات الايرانية سبق وان أعلنت في الثالث والعشرين من الشهر الماضي مقتل 11 من قوات الامن و جرح 9 آخرين بجروح خطيرة قرب مدينة زاهدان عاصمة اقليم بلوشستان في اشتباكات مع مقاتلين بلوش. ونقلت الجبهة عن مصادر مقربة من حركة المقاومة الشعبية في ايران قولها انها لم تشارك مباشرة في هذه العمليات ولكن لها بعض الصلات مع المقاتلين. و بعد هذه العمليات العسكرية احتلت السلطات الايرانية مساحة كبيرة حول زاهدان وفرضت نوعا من الاحكام العرفية هناك. وتفيد تقارير نقلا عن شهود عيان ان عددا كبيرا من المواطنين الأبرياء الذين يعيشون في المنطقة قد القي القبض عليهم وتعرضوا للتعذيب وانتزعت منهم اعترافات بالقوة باتهام تعاملهم مع المقاتلين البلوش وقد يواجه عدد منهم عقوبة الاعدام حالهم حال كثيرين آخرين انتزعت منهم الاعترافات تحت التعذيب وأعدموا على اساسها فيما بعد.
واكدت الجبهة انه كانت هناك سلسلة من الاغتيالات في بلوشستان ولكن احدا لم يعلن عن مسؤولية القيام بها. وتفيد بعض التقارير ان اربعة اشخاص قد اغتيلوا على هذا النحو بواسطة قوات الأمن بغية إثارة الصراعات القبلية والتوتر في المنطقة خاصة وان الحكومة الايرانيه لها تاريخ طويل في اتباع سياسة فرق تسد .. حيث اعترف قائد قوات الأمن وقع في أسر حركة المقاومة الشعبية الايرانيه اعترف بأن النظام قد شارك في صياغه وتنفيذ سياسات سرية لبث الفرقة بين مختلف القبائل والعائلات وتحريضهم ضد بعضهم البعض.
واضاف هذا العقيد المعتقل خلال اعترافاته بالقول "كلما تتوصل قبيلتين او فصيلين متناحرين من قبيلة واحدة الى توافق لاقرار السلام بينها تقوم قوات الامن باغتيال عضو واحد من كل قبيلة ثم تلقي اللوم على الجانب الآخر حتى يستمر القتل والتناحر بين البلوش" . وأكد العقيد أن هذه هي السياسة الرسمية للنظام بخصوص بلوشستان والشعب البلوشي.
ونقل بيان الجبهة عن وكالة الانباء الايرانية قولها ان 27 البلوش قتلوا في الشهر المنصرم على ايدى قوات الامن كما تم اعدام خمسة أشخاص شنقا في الخامس والعشرين من الشهر الماضي . ووفقا للسلطات الايرانيه فان 700 من البلوش حكم عليهم بالاعدام وصاقت المحكمه العليا الايرانيه على الاحكام الصادرة ضدهم وهم ينتظرون تنفيذ الاحكام الصادرة ضدهم وتحسبا لردة فعل الشعب البلوشي قرر النظام الايراني نقل المحكومين الى محافظات اخرى لتنفيذ أحكام الاعدام فيهم حيث تعترف السلطات ايضا بانها اعتقلت لحد الآن 1456 من البلوش حتى 07 ايار / مايو.
واوضحت الجبهة ان أغلبية الشعب البلوشي ينتمون الى الطائفة السنية وظل النظام الايراني يحرمهم منذ بداية الثورة من حقوقهم الانسانية الاساسية ووفقا لمسح الامم المتحدة فان اقليم بلوشستان يعد افقر مقاطعة في ايران فنسبة البطاله هي الاعلى بين جميع الاقاليم الاخرى ومتوسط العمر في بلوشستان هو خمسة عشر عاما اقل من المناطق الاخرى في ايران اضافة الى ان الامية مرتفعة ويتفشى الفقر بين البلوش .
واكدت جبهة شعب بلوشستان في ختام بيانها ان سياسة التطهير العرقي تنفذ بشكل واسع كما هو الحال بالنسبة للعرب في اقليم الاهواز والاكراد والترك والتركمان في البلاد . ولاحظت انه لم يكن هناك حتى وزير واحد أو نائب وزير أو سفير او اي مسؤول كبير آخر من بلوشستان في السنوات ال 30 الماضية. وشددت على ان النظام مصمم على تغيير هوية الشعب البلوشي بالكامل كما هو الحال بالنسبة للعرب والكرد والترك والتركمان. واشارت الى انه حتى النشاطات المدنية لا يسمح بها في بلوشستان والاقاليم غير الفارسية الاخرى ولا يستطيع أي شخص الانخراط حتى في انشطه سياسية سلميه.

هیجدهمین سالگرد شهادت دکتر عبدالرحمن قاسملو
Congress of Nationalities for a Federal Iran
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
هیجدهمین سالگرد شهادت دکتر عبدالرحمن قاسملو
امروز 22 تیرماه 1386 سالروز شهادت دکتر عبدالرحمن قاسملو بزرگ مرد تاریخ ایران است، که در حال مذاکره با مقامهای جمهوری اسلامی در کشور اتریش ترور گردید. دکتر قاسملو با احترام به اصل مبارزه مدنی و حل مشکلات ایران از راهها و روشهای مسالمت آمیز حاضر به مذاکره با جمهوری اسلامی گردید و نمی دانست که رژیم اسلامی یک حرکت صلح آمیز را تبدیل به کشتارگاه او و یارانش خواهد کرد.
خشونت بخشی از ماهیئت جمهوری اسلامی است که هرگز آن را رها نخواهد کرد هر چند که تظاهر به صلح طلبی و مذاکره بخشی دیگر از طبیعت رژیم برای بدام انداختن مخالفان است. رژیم اسلامی امید داشت که با قتل دکتر قاسملو و دیگر رهبران کورد، حزب دمکرات کردستان ایران و مبارزات مردم کورد دچار بحران شود ولی جریان مبارزات مردم کردستان بسیار عمیق تر از آن بود که قتل چند نفر باعث زوال آن بشود.
امروز قاسملو تبدیل به یک قهرمان شده است، اندیشه ها و مبارزات او همچنان الهام دهنده هزاران نفر است و در آینده نیز الهام بخش میلیونها نفر خواهد گردید. دکتر قاسملو اندیشمندی توانا بود، راههای مبارزه را بخوبی می شناخت و به نیروهای مخالف جمهوری اسلامی کمکهای فراوان کرد.
در زمانیکه رژیم شرایط زندگی و مبارزه را برای مبارزین دیگر ایران بسیار سخت کرده بود، او کردستان را پناهگایی مطمئن برای ایرانیان مبارز کرده بود، صدها تن از ایرانیان به کمک او و یارانش از مرگ حتمی نجات یافتند و به کشورهای اروپائی راه پیدا کردند. او رفته است ولی میراث سیاسی او برای همیشه خواهد ماند و چراغ راهنمای صدها نفر خواهد بود که امروز و فردا در راه آزادی و دمکراسی قدم برخواهند داشت.
ما اعضای کنگره ملیتهای ایران فدرال شهادت مظلومانه دکتر قاسملو را به مردم کردستان تسلیت می گوئیم و خود را در سوگواری شما شریک می دانیم.
یاد او همیشه گرامی باد.

امروز قاسملو تبدیل به یک قهرمان شده است، اندیشه ها و مبارزات او همچنان الهام دهنده هزاران نفر است و در آینده نیز الهام بخش میلیونها نفر خواهد گردید. دکتر قاسملو اندیشمندی توانا بود، راههای مبارزه را بخوبی می شناخت و به نیروهای مخالف جمهوری اسلامی کمکهای فراوان کرد.
در زمانیکه رژیم شرایط زندگی و مبارزه را برای مبارزین دیگر ایران بسیار سخت کرده بود، او کردستان را پناهگایی مطمئن برای ایرانیان مبارز کرده بود، صدها تن از ایرانیان به کمک او و یارانش از مرگ حتمی نجات یافتند و به کشورهای اروپائی راه پیدا کردند. او رفته است ولی میراث سیاسی او برای همیشه خواهد ماند و چراغ راهنمای صدها نفر خواهد بود که امروز و فردا در راه آزادی و دمکراسی قدم برخواهند داشت.
ما اعضای کنگره ملیتهای ایران فدرال شهادت مظلومانه دکتر قاسملو را به مردم کردستان تسلیت می گوئیم و خود را در سوگواری شما شریک می دانیم.
یاد او همیشه گرامی باد.

سوء قصد به مدیر مسئول هفته نامه صحرا
سوء قصد به مدیر مسئول هفته نامه صحرا
در روز یکشنبه سیزدهم خرداد دو مهاجم ناشناس قصد جان آقای دیه جی ، مدیر مسئول صحرا، را کردند. باوجود سنگین بودن ضربات وارده با آلات خطرناک بر پیکر آقای دیه جی، خوشبختانه خطرجانی برطرف شد.
هفته نامه صحرا تنها نشریه ترکمنی است که علیرغم وجود مشکلات عدیده سیاسی و مالی بیش از ده سال است که بی وقفه منتشر میشود. در طول سالهای گذشته افراد و گروه های وابسته به نهادهای دولتی به شیوه های مختلف کوشیدند تا موانع لازم در مسیر صحرا ایجاد نموده و بدینطریق تنها "روزنامه" مستمر ترکمنی را برای همیشه متوقف کنند.
هدف دشمنان قلم مضمون مقالات مندرجه در صحرا نیست ؛ زیرا که صحرا هفته نامه ای کاملا متعادل و متعارف و عاری از زبان تند و گزنده است که رژیم اسلامی را صراحتآ به باد انتقاد بگیرد و اساس آنرا زیر علامت سئوال ببرد . هدف دشمنان آزادی خاموش کردن تنها صدای مظلوم ملت کوچکی است که هنوز در بطن جامعه دادخواهانه فریاد میزند. این ملت که در سرزمین آبا ـ اجدادی خود چون بیگانگان زندگی میکند و از همه امکانات سیاسی ، اقتصادی ، اجتماعی ، فرهنگی و... محروم است، هر روز بیشتر به گوشه جامعه رانده و بر عقب ماندگی همه جانبه آن نیز افزوده میشود. سردمداران جمهوری اسلامی که حتی انتشار یک هفته نامه معتدل ترکمنی را نیز نمیتوانند تحمل کنند، قطعآ عزم راسخ دارند که ملت ترکمن را به فقر فرهنگی دچار کرده و روشنفکران فعال آنرا بلحاظ فیزیکی نابود کنند.
ما ضمن ابراز انزجار خود از این عمل جنایتکارانه، از همه آزادیخواهان تقاضا داریم که با استفاده از وسایل و امکانات مناسب اعتراضات خود را بگوش افکار عمومی و رسانه های گروهی و سازمانهای بین المللی برسانند.

Serious and Deadly Human Rights Abuses in Iranian Balochistan
Appeal to UN
Mr Johan Verbeke
President of UN Security Council
New York, USA 1st June 2007
Re: Serious and Deadly Human Rights Abuses in Iranian Balochistan
Dear Mr Johan Verbeke,
We the undersigned Iranian Baloch organisations would like to express our deepest dismay and concern over the silence and ineptness exhibited by International bodies and human rights organisations in the face of Iranian regime’s recent murderous acts of arbitrary killings, summary executions and hanging of Baloch youths in Iran. Baloch people overwhelming majority of whom live in Balochistan have not only been deprived of their basic rights, but also have been subject to blatant repression, systematic discrimination on the grounds of ethnicity and religion.
The Iranian security forces shot dead a 12-year old girl called Roya Sarani in cold blood in front of her brother opposite their house in Zahedan on Sunday 24th May 2007. They also executed a 17-year old boy called Saeed Qanbarzaei in Zahedan on Wed 28th May 2007 after subjecting him to constant barbarous tortures since his arrest despite an appeal by Amnesty International. The Iranian judiciary executed further five Baloch on the following day. During the last week, the Iranian authorities in Chabahar demolished more than 100 houses that belonged to poor Baloch families in Chabahar.
Recently Dr Shahriyari, a well known racist and anti-Baloch who is currently selected member of Iranian Parliament from Zahedan, and a close ally of the President and the Judiciary announced that around 700 Baloch have been arrested and await execution. In recent weeks many of those detainees have been executed either by firing squad or by hanging in public or Clandestinely. Mindful of local anger and backlash, many of those detainees have been transferred to neighbouring provinces for the purpose of execution. Fifteen of them were executed in Khorasan province, while two were hanged in Hormozgan and one in Kerman province respectively.
As the world is occupied by the Iranian nuclear threat and its support for terrorism, the Iranian regime in Balochistan is involved in a brutal and ruthless arrest and executions of mostly educated Baloch youth under the disguise of fighting drug smuggling and so-called banditry. It is common knowledge in Balochistan that the Iranian intelligence and security forces facilitate the passage of narcotic consignments from Afghanistan through Balochistan and the rest of Iran to the western world as it was admitted by the interior minister last month.
We urge you not to remain unconcerned and indifferent while Iranian regime commits deadly human rights abuses in Balochistan. Please voice your concern and condemn the inhumane actions of the Iranian regime in Balochistan.

Mass arrests in Balochistan
London, 21 May 07. Balochistan Peoples Front-- 1479 Baloch have been arrested during the Unity 1 Manoeuvre in Baluchistan and Baluch dominated areas of Kerman, the official Iranian news agency, IRNA reported. The agency quoted the director of Public Relations of Operational Base of Rasool Akram as saying that 156 polluted locations were cleansed and 6 armed men were killed. He added that 174 insurgents and their associates were also arrested.
At the same time there were other reports that dozens of wounded security forces were transferred to different hospitals in Zahedan including Bany Akram hospital. Another report by Marzeporgohar.mihanblog.com confirmed that a large number of injured security forces are in critical conditions and the hospital officials have banned the ordinary people from visiting the hospital.
Some witnesses believe the objective of this manoeuvre was to cleanse ethnic Baluch from their ancestral lands under different pretexts. The official who gave the news of the Unity 1 Manoeuvre categorised 1479 Baluch as aggressors. This is a new term that was attributed to some people to justify their eviction from their lands under ethnic cleansing policy of the Iranian government.
Roya Sarani, a 12 year old girl was shot dead by the Iranian security forces in Zahedan on 16 May 07. Her parents were forced to bury her in a quiet manner. They were not allowed to hold a public burial for their daughter. She was gunned down after returning from school to home after sitting her exams.
The People's Resistance Movement of Iran announced that one of their bases in Sarawan was attacked by the Iranian security forces at three o'clock in the morning of 14 May o7. A gun battle was exchanged between the two sides which resulted in the death of 7 revolutionary guards. The security forces were forced to retreat after the local people protested against their presence in the region.
The arrests of 1479 Baluch as aggressors and another 174 as insurgents indicates the Islamic Republic's resolve for relentlessly pursuing ethnic cleansing of Baloch people from their ancestral homelands. The Iranian government announced that 700 Baluch have received their death sentences from the Iranian Supreme Court. After Amnesty International's appeal for help for saving the lives of these people, Iranian regime decided to transfer a large number of the condemned Baluch to different provinces of Iran including Khorasan and Hormozgan. 20 Baluch have been executed in these provinces in the last three weeks, according to the Iranian official news agency, Irna.

Mass executions in Baluchistan by the Islamic Republic of Iran
Dear Mr Dyke

Mass executions in Baluchistan by the Islamic Republic of Iran
Following the Amnesty International's appeal for saving the lives of 700 Baluch who had received death sentences from the Supreme Court of Iran, the Islamic Republic of Iran decided to transfer the innocent Baluch people to other cities of Iran and execute them without releasing their identities.
The Iranian media reported that one Baluch has been hanged in Bandar Abbas and 15 others have been executed in Mashhad in the last two weeks. Some reliable sources claimed that the 15 hanged men in Mashhad were Baluch and from the 700 people who had already received death sentences from the Supreme Court of Iran.
The Islamic Republic of Iran is transferring to and executing the Baluch people in different cities to conceal its policy of massacre and genocide of Baluch people. The silence of Iranian human rights activists and political parties and figures have helped the Iranian regime tremendously in following the policy of massacre and ethnic cleansing in Baluchistan. International community has been deadly silent on this issue.
Human Rights Watch and American State Department have also excluded the Baluch people's executions from their reports. The American State Department has never reported the plight of the Baluch people fully while they cover in detail the violations of human rights in other provinces of Iran and specifically women and students. This is not surprising as the Americans have always helped the enemies of Baluchistan.
But the amazement is about the Human Rights Watch. This organization has received the reports of the executions but never fully covered the issue. If the human rights organizations do not publish the plight and the executions and the genocide of the Baluch people, who is supposed to help people who cannot help themselves at this phase in their historical journey towards achieving their human rights.
We are seeking the support and help of Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, United Nations and all other international organizations to stop Iran from executing innocent people of Baluchistan.
The Iranian regime has followed a systematic policy of discrimination, exclusion, humiliation and ethnic cleansing in Baluchistan since the beginning of the revolution in total secrecy, portraying the Baluch people as murderers, fundamentalists, smugglers, drug traffickers, the agents of America, collaborators with Taleban to justify the mass killing in Baluchistan. Many other organizations and some think tanks have believed the propaganda of the Islamic Republic of Iran against the oppressed and innocent people of Baluchistan and followed the same policy of distortion of the truth and discrediting the Baluch people; not knowing that how much damage they can cause to the reputation of innocent people.
The international organizations and think tanks must report the facts and not speculations; keeping in mind that their false reports can result in the executions of many innocent people in Baluchistan.

We are seeking the support and help of Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, United Nations and all other international organizations to stop Iran from executing innocent people of Baluchistan.
The Iranian regime has followed a systematic policy of discrimination, exclusion, humiliation and ethnic cleansing in Baluchistan since the beginning of the revolution in total secrecy, portraying the Baluch people as murderers, fundamentalists, smugglers, drug traffickers, the agents of America, collaborators with Taleban to justify the mass killing in Baluchistan. Many other organizations and some think tanks have believed the propaganda of the Islamic Republic of Iran against the oppressed and innocent people of Baluchistan and followed the same policy of distortion of the truth and discrediting the Baluch people; not knowing that how much damage they can cause to the reputation of innocent people.
The international organizations and think tanks must report the facts and not speculations; keeping in mind that their false reports can result in the executions of many innocent people in Baluchistan.

The Iranian regime arrests and tortures civil and peaceful campaigners in Baluchistan

The Iranian regime arrests and tortures civil and peaceful campaigners in Baluchistan
"One's dignity may be assaulted, vandalized and cruelly mocked, but cannot be taken away unless it is surrendered." Michael Fox, actor.
Those who are arresting, torturing, hanging, executing and humiliating the Baluch people will never see the day that the Baluch surrender their dignity and rights. Hundreds of rulers have come in the region and tried to force the Baluch to surrender. They never succeeded. All those rulers are gone now and the Baluch people are still here and they will be here until this regime is gone and hundreds of regimes in the future will come and go. The Baluch people are here to stay firm, to stand tall and to star brilliantly in the battlefield that its opponents and enemies have generated. They will go forward and as Ferdowsi has said, "nobody will ever see their back, always facing the enemy head on. Nobody has seen their backs in thousands of years in the battlefield and nobody will see them surrendered in thousands of years to come.
I know that our enemies are strong and ruthless; but I know that we are tough enough to take any blow that may come from any corner. I know that the task ahead requires a lot of power; but there is inside us more power than the task ahead. Our tenacity and resilience have saved us for thousands of years and our resilience and tenacity will save us for as long as this earth continues to exist. Every Baluch must now that he has a will stronger than iron, a mind larger than oceans, a fist tougher than rocks and a pen sharper than swords.
The Baluch enemies must now know that we have already combined all these formidable forces together to campaign vigorously and relentlessly to preserve our identity, retain our dignity and regain our rights and our lands.
What thousands of political activists and campaigners are doing now will continue for years to come until we repossess what is rightly ours. Although thousands of Baluch have been already killed, 700 are waiting on the death row and Yakoub Mehrnehad and his friends are experiencing torture, thousands more are prepared to face the Islamic Republic of Iran today and in any day to come.
The Islamic Republic of Iran and international community often question the Baluch political activists and campaigners that why they were not engaged in civil and peaceful political campaigns and we always explained that the Iranian regime has never allowed the political culture of peaceful campaigning to develop and grow. To test the attitude of the government, the Baluch young people organised a legal and approved meeting to present their views on the present circumstances of Baluchistan and Iran. The government issued the licence for the meeting and after the meeting arrested the leaders of the Voice of Justice Association of Baluchistan. The witnesses confirmed that the when revolutionary guards and security forces arrested these young people, they began torturing, beating, offending and humiliating them as soon as they entered the office of the Association. Since their arrest nobody knows where they have been taken. But if we judge from the way they were arrested we can understand that they must be under severe torture right now.
Now it is clear for the Iranian people, political activists, human rights organizations and international community that the Iranian regime does not allow any civil political campaigning in Baluchistan. It is now clear for everybody inside Baluchistan and outside Baluchistan that the Iranian regime arrests and tortures those political activists that live inside Iran, follow the law of the land, and work according to the constitution of the country. It is also clear for the international community and the Iranian people that the Iranian regime is pushing the Baluch people towards armed struggle and violence. The Iranian people have a right to protest against racial, cultural, political and economic discriminations and social exclusions and if they do not have the permission to organise peaceful and legal meetings, there is no any other alternative but resorting to other means to regain their rights.
Yakoub Mehrnehad and his friends are the victims of a lawless regime that has victimised all Iranian people and specifically the Sunnis, Baluch, Arabs, Kurds, Turks, Lors, Turkemans, women, students, and workers. Today these groups are the vanguard of campaign for political freedom, social justice and economic well-being of the Iranian people. We see that they are engaged in different forms of political activities every day in different parts of the country. To arrest and torture their leaders only increases their intention and will for further and more effective campaign in future.

Abdalbek Kahra Zahi (also ]known as Abdalmalek) (m)
Ali Reza Brahoui (m) ]
All members of Iran’s Baluchi minority
The seven people named above, including a boy aged 17, are at risk of imminent execution. Amnesty International fears that at least five of the group may have been tortured into "confessing" to involvement in a number of violent crimes carried out in the town of Tasuki, in Sistan-Baluchistan province, southern Iran, in March 2006.
Information provided to Amnesty International suggests that the seven may have been arrested on account of their family ties with those suspected of having been involved in blowing up a bus carrying security officials from the Revolutionary Guard on 14 February 2007, in which at least 14 people were killed.According to media reports, Ali Reza Brahoui, Yahya Sohrab Zahi, Sa’id Qanbar Zahi, Houshang Shahnavazi and Ma’soud Nosrat Zahi all made "confessions" on Iranian state television to a number of crimes which allegedly took place in Sistan-Baluchistan, including attacks and carjackings.
The televised "confessions" linked an Iranian Baluchi armed opposition group, Jondallah, also known as the Iranian Peoples’ Resistance Movement (Jonbesh-e Moqavemat-e Mardom-e Iran), to these crimes, and to the attack on the bus on 14 February. Unconfirmed reports suggest that the five who "confessed" have been tortured, including by having bones in their hands and feet broken; by being ‘branded' with a red-hot iron and by an electric drill applied to their limbs, shredding their muscles.According to a BBC report, Iranian state television said that Sa’id Qanbar Zahi was tried on 11 March 2006.
Amnesty International has no other information concerning the legal proceedings faced by the seven, but there are concerns that they may have faced summary trials, and may not have had access to defence lawyers.
Amnesty International recognizes the rights and responsibilities of governments to bring to justice those suspected of criminal offences, but opposes the death penalty in all cases as the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment.
Moreover, Iran is a state party to international treaties which prohibit the execution of those under the age of 18 at the time of their alleged offence.BACKGROUND INFORMATIONIran's Baluchi minority lives mainly in the southeast of the country, and is believed to constitute between one and three percent of the total population of around 70 million.
Mainly Sunni Muslims, they have for many years complained of discrimination by the Iranian authorities.Jondallah, or the Iranian Peoples’ Resistance Movement, has carried out a number of armed attacks on Iranian officials and has on occasion killed hostages. It reportedly seeks to defend the rights of the Baluchi people, though government officials have claimed that it is involved in drug smuggling and has ties to terrorist groups and to foreign governments. Amnesty International condemns unequivocally the killing of hostages and urges Jondallah to desist from this or similar practices immediately.
According to a BBC report on 15 March, Sistan-Baluchistan television has stated that at least two people have been hanged in connection with the attack on the bus carrying Revolutionary Guards. Five days after it took place, an Iranian Baluchi man, Nasrollah Shanbeh-Zehi, was executed in connection with the attack.
He was shown on Iranian television “confessing” to the bombing on behalf of Jondallah and was executed in public at the site of the bombing. It is thought that the other man allegedly executed in connection with the attack may have been Ahmad Sariz, allegedly a member of Jondallah, who was reportedly hanged on 14 March. Reports indicate that at least 17 other individuals have either been sentenced to death or executed in connection with an attack in Tasuki in March 2006, in which up to 22 people were reportedly killed.
In an interview with the Iranian newspaper ‘Ayyaran on 17 March, Hossein Ali Shahryari, a parliamentarian representing the city of Zahedan, stated that prisons in Sistan-Baluchistan province hold more than 700 people under sentence of death. In 2006, at least 177 people were executed in Iran, including at least four women and four people who were under 18 at the time of the alleged offence.
Possibly as many as one-third of these were members of Iran’s Baluchi minority.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Please send appeals to arrive as quickly as possible, in English, Persian or your own language:
- stating that Amnesty International recognizes the right and responsibility of governments to bring to justice those suspected of criminal offences, but opposes the death penalty as the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment;
- calling on the Iranian authorities to commute immediately the death sentences of these seven individuals (naming them) and of anyone else facing execution in Iran;- reminding the authorities of their commitment to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which states that “sentence of death shall not be imposed for crimes committed by persons below eighteen years of age”, and calling on the Iranian authorities to implement the recommendations of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child by immediately stopping the executions of those who were under the age of 18 at the time of the alleged offence;

Correcting Michael Ladeen's article: Beyond Balochistan
Dear Mr Michael Ladeen
I am sorry that I couldn't respond to you earlier. I was away for few days. Today I read your article, Beyond Balochistan. Unfortunately, there is a big mistake in it which has already generated some serious concerns among some circles. Some people called me and said that my organization: Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran (BPFI) has been involved in military operations in Baluchistan and they quoted your article. I want to say categorically that It was the Peoples Resistance Movement of Iran (PRMI) that carried out military operations, not Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran (BPFI). We reported the news and made an analysis.
Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran (BPFI) has never been involved in any military action at any time.
I have highlighted those parts of your article that need corrections and I have made the corrections under each part. To clear the air and to present our position correctly, I wish to ask you to publish this note in your media.
The note is attached and it is printed in the email too.
Yours sincerely

Correcting Beyond Balochistan by Michael Ledeen
It was the Peoples Resistance Movement of Iran (PRMI) that carried out military operations, not Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran (BPFI)
Baluchistan Peoples Front would like to express its gratitude for your very impressive article on Baluchistan in http://pajamasmedia.com/2007/03/beyond_balochistan.php, March 2, 2007.
Beyond Balochistan is a well written article that presents a realistic and objective assessment of the situation in Iran. Although there is a great misunderstanding. It was the Peoples Resistance Movement of Iran (PRMI) that carried out military operations, not Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran (BPFI). The credit or criticism of February military operations in Baluchistan goes only to Peoples Resistance Movement of Iran. Our organization, Baluchistan Peoples Front, is a civil organization that believes in proactive civil campaigning and promotes peaceful campaigns against the Iranian regime.
You wrote in the second paragraph,"The Balochistan People's Front of Iran, which has claimed credit for several recent attacks on the regime's security forces in the area, has issued a fascinating and potentially important assessment of these activities. It's a well written and well argued “lessons learned” from the point of view of an armed resistance group inside Iran."
To correct this paragraph, it was the Peoples Resistance Movement of Iran (PRMI) that claimed credit for several recent attacks on the regime's security forces. Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran made its own assessment and analysis of these incidents. We, Baluchistan peoples Front of Iran (BPFI), publish regularly a newsletter on the situation of Baluchistan in which we reported the news and made an assessment of political and military developments. We have not been involved in any kind of military operations at any time. Our role is to report the news and give assessment of different developments.
In the fifth paragraph you wrote,"The BPFI describes its recent attacks as a realistic test of the regime's power, and the regime failed the test. These operations were carried out successfully without even one casualty in Zahedan, the center of Baluchistan, which is a militarized zone.”
To correct this paragraph again, it was People Resistance Movement of Iran that carried out these military operations in Zahedan, not the Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran.
In the sixth paragraph you wrote that, "Most analysts of contemporary Iran assume that the security forces, whether the IRGC or the fanatical Basij, have the situation well in hand, and while from time to time some demonstration or strike may take place, it will always be efficiently quashed. The Balochistan Peoples Front believes they have now shown that to be false. Indeed, they seemed surprised at the poor performance of the Iranian forces (“the Iranian soldiers are less skilled than has been claimed”).
As you have mentioned the Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran has shown in its analysis of these incidents, carried out by PRMI, that most analysts of contemporary Iran make wrong assessments of the power and force of the Iranian regime.
In the ninth paragraph, "The Balochi Popular Front claims that their ranks are swelling; thousands of new members are said to have arrived." To correct this paragraph, it was the Peoples Resistance Movement of Iran that claimed that their ranks are swelling and not Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran.
I would like to express my thanks for raising the issue of the Baluch people and request you to publish this note to clear our position. I emphasize again that Baluchistan Peoples Front of Iran is a civil organization and has never been involved in any military operations at any time. I also like to reiterate that we believe in civil campaigning.
