The European Parliament recently witnessed 270 of its members issue a strongly worded statement lashing out and condemning the regime in Iran for its continuous and horrendous trend of human rights violations in contrast to preposterous claims of reforms and adopting a new approach. The statement encourages and rightfully demands the European Union and all Western governments “to condition any further relations with Iran to a clear progress on human rights and a halt to executions.”
As Congress is known for its deep respect for human rights values, it can send a strong, bipartisan message by taking a similar stance against Iran and remind the mullahs sitting on the throne in Tehran that the utterly flawed nuclear agreement pursued by the Obama administration will never overshadow their disastrous human rights dossier, support for terrorism and meddling in other countries....
