Dr. Ameneh Soleimani has been arrested for one so-called “crime”: helping injured protesters.

For two weeks, she has vanished.
No calls. No visits. No updates. Nothing.

In Iran, saving lives is being treated like a punishable offense.

Be her voice—before the regime silences her for good.

Dear Mr. President Obama,
In 2009, your administration offered no support to Iran’s Green Movement protesters seeking democracy. Many got slaughtered
In 2015-2016, Project Cassandra—a DEA effort to dismantle Hezbollah’s global narcotics network tied to Iran’s IRGC—was stalled & stopped by your administration to secure the ill advised JCPOA nuclear deal.
That agreement released over $150 billion in frozen Iranian assets and included a $1.7 billion cash settlement, effectively bolstering the regime. And supporting all of their terror proxy activities yet starving their own people.

Now, over 40,000 people have been massacred and murdered in Iran by the tyrannical regime—yet your recent statement focuses solely on one tragic U.S. death where facts remain unclear.
I urge you, sir, to embrace greater moral clarity on these interconnected issues.

Security forces were then deployed with explicit instructions to “shoot to kill” and “show no mercy.”

Emory University has dismissed Fatemeh Ardeshir Larijani, the daughter of the US-sanctioned security chief of the Islamic Republic, the university confirmed to Iran International on Saturday, following growing calls for her removal.

“A physician who is the daughter of a senior Iranian government official is no longer an employee of Emory,” the university’s Winship Cancer Institute, where Larijani worked, said in response to Iran International’s inquiry.

AN IRANIAN IRGC COMMANDERS’S DAUGHTER SPEAKS OUT ABOUT THE ATROCITIES OF THE REGIME AND WHAT HER OWN FATHER HAS DONE. THIS IS BEYOND DISTURBING AND VERY GUT WRENCHING TO WATCH AND LISTEN.
