This resolution is the 39th censure issued by various organizations of the United Nations, condemning violations of human rights and terrorism perpetrated by the terrorist, religious dictatorship of the mullahs. It will be voted on by the General Assembly next week.
The Third Committee's resolution "deplores the continuing politically-motivated violence against Iranians" outside Iran and urges the mullahs' regime "to refrain from activities against members of the Iranian opposition living abroad and the harassment of their relatives within Iran."
The German Federal Prosecutor has accused the leaders of the mullahs' regime, specifically Khamenei and Rafsanjani, of having ordered the 1992 murder of four dissident Iranian Kurds in Berlin. The mullahs' terrorists have assassinated 17 Iranian dissidents so far in 1996.
Massoud Rajavi, President of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, described the 39th U.N. resolution as another irrefutable document attesting to the ruling regime's inability to reform. He added that today, there remains no doubt that the Khomeini regime is the world's worst violator of human rights, and its principal exporter of terrorism.
Mr. Rajavi praised all the countries and dignitaries who supported the resolution and worked toward its adoption. He added that experience has demonstrated that although such resolutions condemning the regime are essential, they are certainly not enough to confront so criminal a regime. Hence, the time has come for the General Assembly to refer the matter of horrific human rights violations and terrorism by the mullahs to the U.N. Security Council, for consideration of practical, specific punitive measures against this regime.
Referring to the terrible increase in executions and rights abuses in Iran, some of which were referred to by the Special Representative on Iran in his interim report, the NCR President said the Khomeini regime is surrounded by economic and political crises, and is incapable of confronting the Iranian people's support for the Iranian Resistance and its President-elect, other than to step up the repression and export of terrorism.
Recalling the regime's constant efforts to obstruct the U.N. Special Representative's visit to Iran, and its efforts to manipulate the setting to prevent him from receiving accurate information, Mr. Rajavi called on the international community to give its full support to the mandate of the Special Representative, and to pressure the mullahs to open the political prisons to his inspection, reveal the locations of the mass graves of execution victims, etc.
