Dear President Bush:

Last week the Islamic Republic of Iran hung another young Iranian. This act is now a routine for this terrorist regime who hangs our youth in public by the dozen. However, this case was different and it has bothered many Iranians inside and out.

Majid Kavousifar a young Iranian fled Iran after assassinating one of the most corrupt and repressive judges in Iran . Moghaddas was the judge in many political activist’s cases, and handed out harsh judgments against them even before reading their files. After Kavousifar and his nephew assassinated this man they fled to Abu Dhabi , UAE and went to the U.S. embassy to seek refuge. Instead of understanding where these young men come from and why they did what they did the U.S. embassy is said to have turned these young men to the Interpol who then turned them to officials of the UAE who returned them to the Islamic Republic of Iran. The IRI hung these kids publicly as seen in the attached photos without even giving them a fair trial. This is expected from a terrorist regime but what has angered Iranians throughout the world is that Khatami who has the blood of thousands of Iranians on his hands is invited to the U.S. and given red carpet treatment. Former President Carter who spoke of nothing but Human Rights violations during the Shah’s reign without truly knowing the situation inside our homeland back then, helped these terrorists come into power and hosted Khatami during his trip to the U.S. How come no one is concerned with Human Rights in Iran during the past 29 years?

Dear President Bush you have stated that you will be standing with the people of Iran . The people of Iran are fed up with this regime and its thugs. This is not the first time some one has assassinated one of their cronies and it won’t be the last time. These young men and women see no future ahead of themselves. This regime has brought nothing but addiction, prostitution, poverty and terror for our compatriots. Even if these young men and women are able to get into colleges (which is very difficult) when they graduate they have nothing to look forward to. These kinds of killings are due to frustration and we are not promoting violence but we have to understand where these people are coming from.

Dear President Bush, was there not a better way for the U.S. embassy to have handled this case? Could Majid’s life not have been spared? This action by the U.S. embassy in Abu Dhabi has really concerned us and we would like to request an investigation of this decision by the embassy.

As seen in these pictures Majid was ready to give his life so maybe the attention given to his case would help show the true nature of this regime better to the world.

How long is the world going to watch while our youth are being called thugs and assassinated by the likes of hanging judges like Moghaddas?

We hope to hear the results of the investigation of the U.S. embassie’s decision regarding this case soon.

Sincerely, 

Amir Hakim
