Iran, Aug. 4, 2019 - Based on a previously made call for protests, dozens of youth and unemployed young men gathered in front of the state oil company in the city of Ahvaz in Khuzestan Province, southwest Iran, protesting the officials' refusal to hire them on a permanent basis.
Company authorities, fearing the protest spreading to other streets and picking up pace, called on the repressive state security forces to put down the protest. A number of protesters were arrested, according to local reports.

This picture shows how diplomatic manipulation with the ruling dictatorship of Iran has only led to the intensification of the war in the region and further repression of the people at home. Appeasement is not a solution, but a betrayal of world peace.   Why Appeasing the Iranian Regime is a Betrayal of the People and Global Peace Any secret agreement between Western powers and the clerical regime in Iran is not merely a political act; it is a "transaction in blood." Experience has shown that the policy of appeasement only buys time for the regime to survive through internal repression and exporting terrorism. Amid the debate over the terms of the MOU with Iran, one key fact has largely gone undiscussed: What is to become of the Iranian people, whose hour of freedom we promised had finally come?

A decade of appeasement: Exposing the systemic collapse of policy that has turned the streets of Paris into an extension of Tehran’s suppression machine. Read the dossier. T he summons of Behzad Naziri by the French police is not a "legal procedure." It is a disgrace—a betrayal of the very values France claims to uphold. It is the final stamp of approval on a decade-long policy of appeasement coursing through the corridors of the Quai d'Orsay: Protecting murderers to preserve short-term interests. If you analyze the trajectory of the Iranian regime’s reach into Europe over the last ten years, you will see that this trend has not merely persisted; it has become systemic. Years ago, appeasement was veiled under the mask of "diplomacy." Today, the mask has slipped. By summoning a human rights defender for the "crime" of organizing a peaceful pursuit of justice, the French authorities have effectively become an extension of the Iranian regime's suppr...
