Predictable: Western media widely cover morality police “suspension” - but, barely cover torture, executions, imprisonments of Iranians in last 2.5 months. Media has a huge blindspot, after decades of minimal news coverage of vast crimes against humanity, committed by the regime.

Wer Sittenpolizei googelt, findet Suchergebnisse bei allen (!) Medien, Berichte ohne Ende. Dagegen kaum Meldungen über die Tötungen, Verhaftungen, Todesurteile, Folterungen der vergangenen 2 Wochen. Genau das war das Problem der Iran-Berichterstattung der letzten 20 Jahre.

It's inaccurate to refer to the IRGC as "Iran's Revolutionary Guard" -- it's the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The IRGC was created with the main task of safeguarding the Islamic republic. By omitting "Islamic" you omit the IRGC's core essence.

Montazeri said the following: "The morality police has nothing to do with the judiciary system. The same source that created it in the past, from the same place it has shut down. Of course, the judiciary system will continue its surveillance of social behaviours across society."

It would have taken a few extra minutes to do due diligence - to understand Montazeri's comments - in the context of the Islamic Republic's MO. It's truly mind-boggling when the Iranian regime is fact-checking Western media's false reporting. The media needs to do better.
