Iranian regime attorney general threaten the truck drivers to execution
Truck drivers across Iran continued their nationwide strike on Monday, the tenth consecutive day, expanding to over 258 cities in all of the country’s 31 provinces.
The drivers are protesting low paychecks, skyrocketing spare parts prices and hollow promises provided by the mullahs’ officials and authorities.
While truck drivers are demanding their rights, due to the highly dangerous potential of truck drivers massive protest movement, the regime’s judiciary officials and Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) are continuously resorting to threats of arrests and executions. The brave truck drivers are refusing to succumb to these measures. Despite the fact that more than 120 protesting truck drivers have been arrested, the protest strike continues.
The Iranian regime attorney general Mohammad Ali Montazeri resorted to threatening the truck drivers to execution. On a state TV on Saturday, he declared, “Based on our information, there are individuals seen in various paths of some cities, provoking truck drivers and causing problems for them during their commuting. These individuals will be considered criminals and thieves, and they will be punished according to the law. In some cases, it will lead to their execution,”
The prosecutor general of Zarand, Kerman province, announced that seven protest truck drivers were arrested on charges of disrupting the transportation vehicle.
Previously, judicial authorities in different provinces of Iran have arrested 35 people in Fars province, 15 in Qazvin province, 13 in Isfahan province, 7 in Alborz province and 3 in Tehran province.
The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) has condemned these threats by issuing a statement.
In this regard, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, saluted this strike and described the vindictive threats of the clerics against the dignified and hardworking drivers as a reflection of the growing crisis of the clerical regime. She emphasized that the ruling mullahs were the biggest bandits in the history of Iran and that they neither want nor can respond to legitimate demands of striking drivers.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi called on all human rights organizations to take action to release the arrested and urged the general public, especially the youth, to support the strikers. Mrs. Rajavi added that realization of these demands is only possible with the establishment of democracy and people’s sovereignty. A regime that threatens to execute its working people due to a strike must be rejected by the international community.

Sanctions help, not hurt, Iran’s people Under the 2015 nuclear agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the Iranian regime received tens of billions of dollars in sanctions relief, plus the promise of new business from a variety of Western companies. Some people see this as a triumph of diplomacy which will improve the lives of the Iranian people, and engender good will. A common argument against economic sanctions is that that the private sector and a nation’s citizenry sh The council’s report points out that Mahan Air is by no means alone. Untold numbers of companies, from multitudes of industries, are generating profits for the IRGC at the expense of the Iranian people. Whatever one might think about economic sanctions in general, the composition of the Iranian economy makes them not only well-advised but absolutely necessary to separating the repressive government from its people. As such, President Trump’s moves to designate the IRGC as a  terr

Secrets of the 1983 Beirut Bombings: The role of Iran’s IRGC Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the authors and do not reflect the viewpoint of Al Arabiya English. The 1983 double bombing in Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, left 241 American service members, 58 French military personnel and six civilians killed, alongside hundreds of others injured. 21 years later in 2004 Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) unveiled a “monument” in “honor” of that terrorist attack. This “memorial” column, installed in a section dubbed “Martyrs of the Islamic World” in Tehran’s Behesht-e Zahra Cemetery, carried a very vivid message: Iran’s  IRGC  was behind the 1983 blast targeting the peacekeeping force in Beirut. 34 years have passed since that attack and today the IRGC has been designated a terrorist organization by the US Treasury Department. Such a measure deserves praise, yet is long overdue. On October 23 of that year a suicide bomber drove a w
