QurÂ’an critic to be executed in Iran within days
2008-06-01
Another free thinker is to be executed in Iran in the coming days

It is with great regret that I inform all freedom loving people of the world that the MullahsÂ’ terrorist regime is about to execute one of IranÂ’s finest thinkers, a true patriot, scholar and historian.

Dr. Foroud Fouladvand is a dedicated monarchist, a Ferdousi expert as well as expert on the history of Iran and Islam.

A confirmed report sent to the office of Dr. Fouladvand in London from inside Iran suggests that Dr. Fouladvand and two of his compatriots are going to be executed on Saturday, May 31, 2008 or possibly even sooner.

The two men to be executed alongside Dr. Fouladvand are Mr. Nazem Schmidtt, an Iranian/American citizen, aka Simorgh, and Mr. AlexanderValizadeh, an Iranian/ German citizen, aka Koroush Lor.

Dr. Fouladvand, a British citizen, was known throughout the Iranian community for his open criticism of Islam and the MullahÂ’s tyranny.

Dr. Fouladvand, who is an expert on Islam, openly challenged the QurÂ’an in his daily television broadcasts for listeners both inside and outsideIran. His Television discussions were offensive to the Mullahs. On March 10, 2006, in a preplanned action, about 65 of his supporters refused to leave a Lufthansa plane in protest of the European UnionÂ’s policy of appeasement of the MullahsÂ’ regime.

Dr. Fouladvand was led to believe by an agent of the MullahsÂ’ regime posing as a monarchist activist from within Iran that there were many Iranian patriots inside Iran who believed in him, and that a meeting with them would be fruitful in organizing and uniting people inside Iran to oppose the Mullahs. On October 13, 2006, Dr. Fouladvand and a number of his friends, including the above-named men, left London for the Turkish/Iranian border. The last news of Dr. FouladvandÂ’s whereabouts was on January
17, 2007, when he was expected to meet the supposedly Iranian activists in the Kurdish province of Hakkary in Iraq, which is close to the Iranian border.

In January 2007, the agents of the MullahsÂ’ secret police arrested and smuggled these three men into Iran, where they were imprisoned and were subjected to torture.

Please contact anyone you can. Alert government officials, the press, the Amnesty International and the human rights organizations in your country of residence.

#9  Of course they can, Barbara. They've had to, in fact, if they want to deal with American accounts or American banks.

And why have the Brits not said anything about this publicly?

#2  Thank allah this isn't Guantanamo where the prisoners are obese and the guards touching a koran is not allowed but throwing urine and feces at them is.
