Iran: Trump Guilty of ‘Crimes Against Humanity’
A top Iranian official has denounced Donald Trump in no uncertain terms, labeling him as “more dangerous than coronavirus.” He refers, of course, to the Trump regime’s ongoing moves to block absolutely necessary and sorely needed anti-coronavirus medical supplies from reaching the Islamic Republic. These moves, said Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, are tantamount to “crimes against humanity.”
Specifically, Admiral Shamkhani said that America is actively pressuring the International Monetary Fund to abandon its efforts to assist Iran during this apparently hundred- year pandemic. (See,“the Spanish Flu,” nee, The American Flu of 1918).
The sanction on health items is an illegal and inhumane act and a symbol of Trump’s open hostility to the Iranian people,” Shamkhani wrote in a tweet on Sunday.
The US opposition to granting facilities to Iran by the International Monetary Fund to meet the required medical items to fight against the coronavirus is a real example of crimes against humanity.
At this writing, over 3,700 people have died of COVID-19 in Iran, while the number of confirmed cases there have topped 60,000, according to Johns Hopkins University and Worldmeters.info .
