Human rights issue, a political weapon against Muslims
IRNA -- First Deputy Chief of Judiciary Ibrahim Raisi here Saturday termed the issue of `Human Rights` brought up by Western countries as a political weapon against Islamic states and the Third World. Addressing reporters in reaction to the new resolution issued by the European Parliament, he added that the national laws, which are based on Islamic principles, are the most comprehensive that can guarantee the human rights.
We can see that. Only in Islamic states are 13-year-old girls flogged and then stoned...
Speaking on the sidelines of a conference on Quran held by Tehran Province Justice Department at the judiciary training center, he said, "A resolution was issued by the European Parliament in the French city of Strasbourg on the human rights condition in Iran on Thursday. It criticized violation of human rights in Iran, particularly on political rights and freedom of expression." Saying that no international law gives the issue of human rights so much importance as the Islamic laws, he underlined that the problem is that the relevant laws are not explained to the world people properly.
