.@SwedishPM Ulf Kristersson: You are the Chair of the European Union. We urge you to show moral leadership by telling your ambassador NOT to attend tomorrow's ceremony in Tehran celebrating the 44th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution. Do not dance on the graves of the victims.
2/ Shame on any Ambassador in Tehran who goes to this ceremony glorifying 44 years of a regime that has tortured and killed thousands of its own people. You will become a tool in their propaganda. You will be complicit in their crimes.

Thank you, @KenRoth, for sharing your July 2018 op-ed about this in The Hill, which then invited me to respond with my own op-ed: thehill.com/opinion/intern…

You lost the debate. Let us recall how it all went down. 🧵 :
Ambassador @NikkiHaley led efforts in 2018 to reform the U.N. Human Rights Council, a 47-nation body that suffers a credibility deficit, with its work often marked by selectivity and politicization. /1
Haley urged the council to improve its membership standards, and to end its singular focus on Israel and empowerment of Hamas terrorists. After a year of diplomatic prodding, she realized the will wasn’t there. On June 19, the United States decided to withdraw its membership. /2

BREAKING: 9 minutes ago, for the first time since the Sept. 16 death of Mahsa Amini, @UN_Iran posted a tweet. About an earthquake. They went silent for 134 days during mass protests for freedom, never saying a word for hundreds of protesters killed and injured or 18,000 detained.
History will record that when tens of thousands of Iranian women, men and children went to the streets to risk their lives for the principles of universal human rights — for Woman, Life, Freedom — the response of the United Nations in Iran was to go completely radio silent. /2
It is truly astonishing. Go now to the feed of @UN_Iran. You will see that up until the death in police custody of Mahsa Amini, they were tweeting almost every day, sometimes multiple times a day. Suddenly, when the protests began, they went completely silent. For 134 days. /3

In July 2022, a gunman hired by the Ayatollah's regime in Iran came to Brooklyn to try and murder my friend Masih Alinejad because she created the successful mass movement to fight their compulsory hijab law. Now the US has announced another arrest. /1
justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/u…
This is Khalid Mehdiyev. Last July, he came with a loaded AK-47 rifle in his car to the Brooklyn home of Iranian-born journalist and human rights activist Masih Alinejad. He approached her, but she fled. When he blew a stop sign, New York police stopped him and found the gun. /2
The head of the Azeri-speaking criminal gang is Rafat Amirov, a citizen of Azerbaijan and Russia. He's based in Iran, from where he sent $30,000 to Mehdiyev in the US to buy the gun — along with the Brooklyn address and picture of the woman they were trying to murder. /3

BREAKING: Ahead of Monday's mandatory United Nations review, we found 10 false claims in #Pakistan's report on its human rights record. We urge the @UN_HRC to hold Pakistan's representatives to account for trying to cover up gross human rights abuses. /1
unwatch.org/pakistan-claim…
On Monday, the UN must urge #Pakistan to put an end to torture, enforced disappearances, child labor, violence against women, crushing independent journalists, censoring social media, persecuting Hindus, Christians, Sikhs, Shia and Ahmadis, and supporting terrorist groups. /2
Claim: Pakistan is a “vibrant democracy.”

Fact: Journalist @TahaSSiddiqui has exposed how Pakistani democracy is “a facade.” In reality, the military dominates government behind the scenes. Freedom House notes attacks by Islamist militants and restrictions on civil liberties. /3

.@KenRoth I challenge you to a debate.
You have argued that people such as the founder of Human Rights Watch support war crimes, racism and inhumanity. I think he is a hero, and I am willing to debate you on this any time, anywhere. Since we both live in Geneva, how about here, Monday?
nytimes.com/2009/10/20/opi…
@KenRoth, you have also argued against sanctioning the Iranian regime's former mouthpiece, and you portrayed him as a humanitarian who merits "dealings" with the most fabulous human rights director of our time. On this, too, I challenge you to a debate.

“Hello, one of this week's trending tweets was about My Martyrdom — because even though I dine at the White House, mingle in Davos with EU grandees, and received $100 million from a billionaire to hire away top UN officials and major media correspondents, I am being silenced...”
2/ I applaud Harvard University for refusing to grant a fellowship to Ken Roth who lobbied against sanctions on the murderous Islamic Republic of Iran, boasted about his “dealings” with their mouthpiece Javad Zarif, and portrayed him as a humanitarian.
3/ Bravo @Harvard @Kennedy_School for rejecting the first human rights NGO director in history to be condemned—by journalists, academics, authors, EU Parliament VP, the Netherlands Envoy on Antisemitism & House of Lords members—for justifying antisemitism.
