Greedy Liberals Prefer Cheap Oil over Peoples' Lives

by Ethel Fenig

Liberals gleefully support the reduction of sanctions on Iran despite its nuclear weapons program which the country's elected president, Hassan Rouhani, proudly promises will be used, along with other weapons, to wipe out  Little Satan, Israel and its population and--even better--Big Satan, the US. Europe, much closer to Iran's missile range, is not exempt. Nevertheless, now that President Barack Obama (D) relaxed sanctions against Iran if it promised to be good, Iran's oil exports are increasing as western European nations, socialist to their core, come calling, eager to do business with their would be executors.  President Barack Obama's (D) buddies are sure to follow.

Unconcerned with doing business with people who blithely show their contempt for them, these self righteous liberal supplicants of Iranian oil are indifferent to the horror of everyday life for Iranian citizens as Adam Kredo of The Washington Free Beacon reports.

Iran is executing people in record-breaking numbers not seen for more than 15 years in the Islamic nation, with nearly 200 individuals having been executed in the first few months of this year alone, according to human rights activists.

More than 600 of these executions, many of them carried up publicly, have taken place under the tenure of current Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, who promised the world that he would act as a force for moderation.
At least 895 political prisoners are currently incarcerated in Iran for exercising free speech and other basic rights, according to the U.N.’s Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Iran.
Another 687 Iranians were executed in 2013, many without fair trials, according to a revised counting of the number of executions last year. Thirty of those killed were woman, while at least three were juveniles, according to the group Iran Human Rights (IHR), which recently released in annual report on the death penalty in Iran.
The rate of executions now stands at its highest mark in the last 15 years, with current executions rates showing that the upward trend is set to continue in 2014, the report concludes.
As the human rights situation in Iran grows grimmer, the Western world has been hesitant to address these problems in multilateral talks aimed at ending Iran’s clandestine nuclear weapons program.
“It is a paradox that the relations between Iran and the international community are improving while the number of the executions in Iran increases,” Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, IHR’s spokesman, said in a statement on the report.

No, that's not a paradox, here's is how it is smoothed over to be a liberal plus.  With their smug sense of moral superiority, the liberals cover their naked greed with sincere justifications how contact with them will certainly charm and convince their simple Iranian business partners of the errors of Iran's way.

Iranian officials' response to their simple European and American leaders?
Iranian officials have dismissed concerns over its execution rate, claiming that the world should be appreciative of its efforts, which constitute a “great service to humanity.”

Ah, executing people while making a profit is a " great service to humanity."  Liberals appreciate that.

It is just those narrow minded conservative Americans and Israelis who don't.
