Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman has strongly condemned the Israeli regime’s mistreatment of a rights activist who stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people, describing its actions as “cruel, inhuman and degrading.”
Esmail Baghaei made the remarks in a post on X, referring to reports that Israel “tortured and sexually humiliated” Greta Thunberg.
He cited Thunberg’s recent interview with a Swedish newspaper, in which the young activist described being violently assaulted during a protest.
“They grab me, pull me to the ground, and throw an Israeli flag over me,” Thunberg was quoted as saying.
The spokesman said Israel’s behavior reflects a deliberate effort to instill fear and suppress dissent amid its genocide in Gaza.
They’re not wrong , very much not.
They also know how to mistreat activists.
Let’s not act as if Iran is so supportive of human rights as they happily string up activists on cranes to then slowly hang them tontortur them to death
Gay? String em up or throw them from a high building
Female and your hair is a little too visible? Don’t worry, morality police will be here soon to torture you to death
Fuck the Iranian and Israeli dictator governments
All Muslim countries are interchangeable to western liberals
Just like all Southeast Asian countries and all of central Africa
You have to choose. You can’t just say “fuck everyone!” and pretend like your stance means anything. Pick one.
Man, so much to unpack there…
First I don’t say fuck everyone. If you read closely, you can clearly see that I said “Fuck the Iranian and Israeli dictator governments”. Heck, you even quoted it, so one could mistakenly believe that you actually read it, but you didn’t.
I said fuck Teo very specific governments. Not all the governments, not everyone in the world, two governments…
Then; are you really telling me that you’ve never understood that concept of “two can be wrong”‽ Are you 4? The Israeli government is fucking wrong. The Iranian government is fucking wrong. About what? Just about everything they’re doing
Then; who or what law says that I HAVE to chose? I fucking have to breathe, I have to eat. What I do not have to do is look at two evil powers and then make the decision that I can only criticize one of them because some twat on the Internet told me so
Damn I did not know Iran was throwing gays from roofs. I’m sure you didn’t make that up and just compare all brown people to ISIS.

Great way to rant about technicalities and entirely miss the point that pretty much all islamic countries typically are extremely hostile to LGBT, and Iran in particular, lethal.
But oh noes, that particular method of execution actually does not happen in Iran! WHO FUCKING CARES? That is not the point.
You probably are too young to remember the news articles of crane companies having to find out that their products are used for public executions. Being gay or an activist in Iran is simply a very bad idea
What the fuck are you even talking about? Are you high or off medication or are you just that naive to think that being gay in the middle east is a good idea? Are you one of those crazies that keep on going how well the gays are tested in Islam and that Islam really does embrace the gay? Or moreso, that gays are treated worse in the west than they are in islamic countries? Come on, you can’t be THAT daft.
How far down did you go down what hole, I wonder…
But leave it up to types like you to take a legit criticism and use the whataboutism trope “but the west does it too!”
No, they don’t. I’m still waiting for the next public execution of a gay man because he’s gay. The US has quite a few idiots that would love that, but they’re not even close to that happening
You’re a tone def lib that doesn’t understand that while your criticism is true in regards to Iran, it exists in a context where your gullible repeating it is used as a justification to intervene militarily.
