You've heard about the human rights protests in Iran and the outrageous murder of 22 years old Mahsa Amini by Iran's police, but it's also important to also know the following about the situation:
Despite governments around the world condemning the murder of Mahsa Amini, ALL GOVERNMENTS ARE STILL NEGOTIATING WITH THE IRANIAN REGIME TO BUY OIL.
Iran's regime, known as the Islamic Republic, have so far confessed to murdering 76 protestors over the past 10 days of protests.
This year, the Iranian regime sentenced 2 LGBT activists to be executed for the crime of LGBT activism. Iran's regime is brutally and lethally anti-LGBT.
Iran's regime are also helping Russia against Ukraine by sending them hundreds of suicide drones and other military technology.
Iran's regime is aiming to create nuclear bombs. Would you like another North Korea in the world? A completely deranged terrorist organisation with the power to crush an entire city with a click of a button? These terrorists feel no remorse for killing their own people. Do you think your country is safe from them?
Most western countries have a policy of not negotiating with terrorists. For decades, politicians have stated that 'we do not negotiate with terrorists', arguing that it is both morally indefensible and impractical – likely to encourage more terrorism and legitimize terrorist aims.
And yet they continue to negotiate instead of cutting all diplomatic ties with terrorists.
So how so we put pressure on governments act on their policies and stop negotiating with the terrorists in Iran? Here's how:
Use social media to publicly ask parliament representatives why they continue to negotiate with terrorists aiming for nuclear bombs.
Find your local representative on Twitter and Tweet them with the following template. Tagging news organisations helps expand awareness of important issues and keep parliament members accountable.
@(parliament rep) @(your country's news organisation) @(your country's news organisation) @(your country's news organisation) The Iranian regime have themselves confirmed killing 76 people protesting the state murder of #MahsaAmini. Why is the (your country) government still negotiating with these terrorists who are trying to obtain nuclear bombs?
Don't stop at tweeting just 1 parliament member. Twitter has algorithms which recommend more politians. Click show more, go to each one's page, click the little blue tweet button, and copy and paste your message from above. Do this for as many politicians as you can find.
With the combined weight of all our world friends, we can fight for women's rights AND stop a terrorist organisation with nuclear bomb ambitions.
