This time the issue of Iran’s presidential election and the presidency of Ebrahim Raisi is far beyond a normal election in which somebody promised the people to make changes and make the living condition for the people more pleasant and comfortable.
Because Raisi has been accused to be one of the four people of Iran’s 1988 massacre ‘Death Commission’ who have implemented Iran regime’s founder Ruhollah Khomeini’s ‘Fatwa’ (decree) to execute more than 30,000 political prisoners mainly members of the regime’s main opposition group the PMOI/MEK.
There is enough evidence about this event, but the purpose of this article is not to point out this issue but to count the promises made by such a killer after he had many times claimed to make the living conditions of the people more pleasant.
And it remains to be seen whether Raisi can hold and execute the promises he made to the people. Noteworthy, many analysts say, that if this regime holds these promises and makes them practical, he will face the people’s protests because the people main desire is becoming regime change and creating a better atmosphere for the people encouraged them to stand up against the regime. The fact is that the regime is using poverty and living difficulties as a lever to control and pressurizing the people. On the other side, if the regime makes not any changes, it will face protests too.
