Mousavi's 10th statement: in reaction to the "confession theater"

ORIGINAL IN PERSIAN

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

They say that the children of revolution have confessed to have been in cahoot with foreigners to topple the regime. I paid close attention to their statements and didn't find anything; but a deep sigh with which they told us of their painful 50 days. Crushed humans who could have confessed to a lot of other things when forced, said nothing but the tale of their pains. They told us that Mohsen Rouholamini was right to be martyred. They told us that if they had not resisted for 50 days, this theater would have been held weeks ago. They said all that they were ordered, to say that these are not our words.

The torturer's and inquisitor's teeth have hit people's bone so much so that that they pick their victims from those who have rendered great service to the country and the establishment; and threaten others who have had the most prominent role in the foundation and growth of this regime [referring to Hashemi?]. Are you intimidating people whose highest dream was once to become martyrs on the bright path of the Islamic Revolution?? Or, after killing the republicanism of the establishment on the altar, you are now aiming to disgrace the Islamicness of it as well? The only certain public verdict after watching such a ceremonial court is the moral decadence and lack of credibility of those who run it.

The scenes that we saw and you saw, are nothing but hasty preparations for the beginning of the 10th government. In a court that is fully fraudulent, they seek to prove that the election was not fraudulent! If you are not cheaters, then put on display the similitude of a legal procedure! What is it that you are trying to convince people of, with a lowly indictment, stating irrelevant issues, and reference to books that are shred en mass [because no one reads them], and based on reports of unknown journalists, or based on confessions that wear the taint of medieval tortures? Have you not read that the Prophet (pbuh) said: No blame is laid on a man who confesses under torture? Or "no confession for an imprisoned man who is threatened."?

Our people sympathized with their children whose faces they saw after 50 days of. Brothers! Don't be sad! Know that people understand and know that keeping you alive is more important than anything else. Soon, this people will witness the trial of those behind these crimes, and will know the faces of the interrogators and torturers who play with life and dignity of people.

وَلَوْ یُؤَاخِذُ اللّهُ النَّاسَ بِظُلْمِهِم مَّا تَرَکَ عَلَیْهَا مِن دَآبَّةٍ وَلَکِن یُؤَخِّرُهُمْ إلَى أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى فَإِذَا جَاء أَجَلُهُمْ لاَ یَسْتَأْخِرُونَ سَاعَةً وَلاَ یَسْتَقْدِمُونَ

"If god avenged man for his wrongdoings, no creature would be left on earth, but the punishment is delayed till a certain time; and when death arrives they can no longer delay it"

Mir Hossein Mousavi

Naj's postscript: I have used the words "establishment" and "regime" for "Nezaam". It is the toppling of the Nezam that is a crime in Iran! And I frankly don't know what the Nezam means by "Nezam"!
