Gordon Brown - Selling out Iranians for peace.

There is an old saying about you can't get rid of a wolf by feeding it. Although having read this article at The Midnight Sun, it would seem that our unelected PM has not heard of that:

A majority of Iranians refused to take part in the recent presidential election, which involved widespread vote rigging and was held without the suspension of international observers. The election was neither free nor fair, as no opponents of the regime or women were permitted to stand, and out of 1,000 prospective candidates only eight were declared fit to compete by the unelected Guardians Council. By boycotting the elections, the majority of Iranians rejected the regime and repeated their desire for domestic change.

The most extremist and radical faction of the clerical regime has finally cemented its control over every organ of power within Iran. The phoney president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is a Revolutionary Guards commander who was known as a ruthless interrogator and torturer at the notorious Evin prison, and personally fired the coups de grace shot at 1,000 political prisoners and taken part in the assassination of dissidents abroad. He was also among the masterminds of the US embassy takeover in 1979 and headed the team commissioned to assassinate the British author, Salman Rushdie.

The policy on Iran adopted by the EU over the past decade has backfired. Human rights have drastically deteriorated, the mullahs continue to sponsor terrorism abroad and are closer than ever to completing their nuclear weapons programme. At the behest of Tehran, the EU also included Iran’s democratic opposition group, the People’s Mojahedin Organisation of Iran, in its list of terrorist organisations. In November 2004, the EU-Three vowed to keep the terror designation in return for Iran’s cooperation over the nuclear issue.

So we have the Eu and our own vile New Labour lot decide that kow towing to the murdering mullahs in Iran is better than suporting democracy in that nation. Aside from completely forgetting the lessons of history and the "peace in our time" of Nevile Chamberlain, Gordon has shown that his "ethical foreign policy" is nothing more than a soundbite, a hollow catchphrase, not worth the paper it is written on.

However some judges disagree with him:

Last Wednesday three of Britain’s most senior judges, led by the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Phillips, dealt the Government a blow so humiliating that it should have made headlines across the land.

They gave a final rebuff to the Government’s bizarre efforts, over seven years, to appease the murderous regime of the mullahs in Teheran by outlawing their main democratic opponents as terrorists.

In the Court of Appeal, Lord Phillips ruled that the Government had no grounds to appeal against a High Court order …(to remove)… the People’s Mujahedeen of Iran (PMOI) from its list of terrorist organisations. To include the PMOI on this list, the courts ruled, had been “perverse” and “unlawful”.

Everything about this story has been inexplicable. Back in 2001, Jack Straw, then home secretary, added the PMOI to its terrorist list, as he later admitted “at the request of the Teheran government”.

The PMOI is the largest component of the National Council of Resistance in Iran (NCRI), a mass movement which enjoys huge support in that oppressed country, holding out the hope of a secular and democratic alternative to the ruthless theocracy which has murdered more than 100,000 of the NCRI’s supporters since 1979.

In 2002, at the UK’s request, the EU added the PMOI to its own list of terrorist organisations. In 2006 the European Court of Justice ruled that this was “unlawful”‘ since the PMOI now sought to achieve regime-change in Iran only by peaceful methods. (It was the PMOI which first alerted the world in 2002 to Teheran’s plans to build nuclear weapons.)

In 2007, again at UK insistence, the Council of the European Union twice voted to defy the ruling of its own court. <…>

The fact that the Lord Chief Justice should have chosen to hear the case himself, along with Lord Justice Laws and Lady Justice Arden, showed the judiciary’s sensitivity to the huge political importance of this case - and last week they delivered a devastating judgment.

In London and Paris, there was unconfined joy among thousands of Iranian exiles. I spoke to Mrs Maryam Rajavi, president-elect of the NCRI, in Paris, and she emphasised how important it was that Britain and the West should stop “appeasing the mullahs and adopt a firm policy towards the Teheran regime before it is too late”.

Yet our Gordon has dug his heels in to the bitter end in his policy of fawning before the vile Ahmadinejad. At least now that the judges have opposed this measure we can all see so clearly the duplicity, the low morals, the dire standards that Gordon represents. But not just Gordon but every single Labour MP in the House of Commons.

Whilst Iranians who oppose the mullahs have been classed as "terrorists", our nation has looked the other way whilst Iran spreads terror through the middle east, funds terror groups, kills its internal and external foes and plans to destroy the state of Israel.

Roll on the day when Gordon and his vile bunch are hung up from a rope in much the same way that Ahmadinejad's thugs hang homosexuals and critics of their rule.
