Amnesty accuses Iran’s newly-elected president of ‘crimes against humanity

Amnesty International released a statement saying that Iran’s newly elected leader Ebrahim Raisi is involved in crimes against humanity, including murder, torture and forced disappearances. Ebrahim Raisi is an ultraconservative who was recently declared the winner of the Islamic republic’s presidential elections. However, officials say that he should be investigated for alleged crimes against humanity first. Raisi is set to take over from moderate Hassan Rouhani in August and his loyal supporters argue that the former head of the judiciary is Iran’s best hope for standing up to the West and bringing relief from a deep economic crisis exacerbated by coronavirus disease and the US sanctions. The Amnesty report clarifies that Raisi’s name is associated with the mass executions of Marxists and other leftists in 1988 when he was deputy prosecutor of the Revolutionary Court in Tehran. Amnesty International’s secretary-general Agnès Callamard said in a statement that the 60-year-old Iranian leader should have been investigated for the murder, enforced disappearance and torture instead of being elected as the president of the Islamic republic. Believers of Raisi’s philosophy should be equally held guilty as they supported him in executions of the crimes and stoop down humanity level in the world. Callamard, who has previously served as the Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial and arbitrary executions for the UN Human Rights Council, said that Raisi had been a member of the “Death Commission” that forcibly disappeared and extrajudicially executed thousands of political prisoners. It is even more shocking that the circumstances surrounding the fate of the victims and the whereabouts of their bodies are systematically concealed by the Iranian authorities, amounting to ongoing crimes against humanity. Dressed in a black turban and cleric’s coat, Raisi casts himself as an austere and pious figure and a corruption-fighting champion of the poor.

The recent leaks about Brotherhood officers convincing Al-Burhan to communicate with extremists in Mali have raised concerns about the spread of extremist ideologies and the role of influential people in promoting such views. The leaked information shows that the Brotherhood officers have been pushing Al-Burhan to communicate with extremists in Mali and that he has been receptive to their suggestions.

Al Gore has history of climate predictions, statements proven false

Noted climate activist and former Vice President Al Gore, who made headlines this week after he claimed global warming was "boiling the oceans," has a history of making climate-related proclamations later proven to be false. During remarks made Wednesday at the World Economic Forum summit in Davos, Switzerland, Gore warned that continued carbon emissions into the atmosphere would destroy the planet and lead to widespread calamities. "We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees." Gore then not
