LONG THREAD

1)
 The @WHO & its Director-General @DrTedros are under criticism for aiding China in keeping a lid on the #coronavirus outbreak & not sharing vital, life-saving info with the world.

WHO & Tedros have a very similar approach when it comes to the regime in #Iran.
2)
 Tedros Adhanom, former Ethiopian health & foreign minister, became WHO chief after promising reform.

Months later he appointed Robert Mugabe (of all the people) as the “WHO Goodwill Ambassador.”

Tedros rescinded this decision under int’l pressure.

3)
 Just a month after meeting with Russian President Putin, Tedros appointed Russian Health Ministry official Teresa Cassava as Director of the Global TB Program to fight tuberculosis. Due to Russia’s poor TB record, this decision also resulted in criticism from many experts.

Live internet conference discussing the #coronavirus crisis in #Iran and the regime's growing concerns of social protests.

British MP David Jones:
-The only thing #Iran's regime cares about is holding onto power at the cost of the Iranian people. They have rejected all humanitarian aid, but are demanding $5 bn from the IMF. This will undoubtedly be invested in foreign terrorism & domestic crackdown.
Former German Bundestag member Otto Bernhardt:
-#Iran's regime kicked out Doctors Without Borders. Ordinary people are helping out each other, not the regime. The regime has billions in bank accounts, so there is no need for a sanctions lift or an IMF loan.

#Iran—DISTURBING

God knows how many chicks were put to death as chicken farmers could no longer afford to feed them.

Of course, the regime would never purchase these chicks to feed the homeless & needy.
#Iran—DISTURBING

More footage of killing thousands of chicks.

Why? They say they can't feed them.

Truth: Regime-linked companies are deliberately lowering supply to increase the market price of poultry.
#Iran—DISTURBING

More footage of killing thousands of chicks.

Regime officials say #coronavirus caused a decrease in poultry demand & prices dropping. Thus, they ordered measures to raise prices.

Question: Why wasn't this supply of poultry used to provide for the poor & needy?
