Sanction Iran’s Revolutionary Guards!

We, the signatories to this petition, call on European policymakers to enact immediate sanctions against the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The IRGC is one of the largest sponsors of terrorism networks in the world today, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of citizens in various countries.

The IRGC has been directly linked to the physical torture and executions of homosexuals, women and children, as well as of members of national and religious minorities. The world has watched as the IRGC has brutally and violently assaulted and killed Iranian pro-democracy demonstrators.

This rogue organisation, through a web of business and financial entities it controls in Iran and worldwide, is essential for the military nuclear programme which could target Europe and countries in the Middle East, especially Israel. An atomic bomb in the hands of the Mullahs is also a danger for the Iranian people who would be confronted with an invigorated regime that would drastically reduce any chances of real change.

We, the undersigned, together with the European STOP THE BOMB coalition, urge European governments and EU decisionmakers to lead the way by immediately implementing severe sanctions against the Iranian regime’s Revolutionary Guard Corps. These actions will send the Islamic regime a clear message that Europe demands an immediate end to the brutal oppression of the Iranian pro-democracy movement, opposes Iran’s quest to build a military nuclear programme and its continued support of terror organisations around the world.

As signatories to this petition, we urge European politicians and policy makers at all levels to take these steps. It is unconscionable for Europe not to take profound action as democracy-seeking Iranians continue to be brutally victimized by a fundamentalist regime which is only concerned about staying in power and building a nuclear arsenal.

Therefore we call for:
• the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps to be added to the EU terror list

• the EU and European Governments to ban trade, and encourage their countries’ businesses to cease economic activity, with entities associated with the Revolutionary Guards, and

• the support of the freedom movement in Iran and its quest for a secular and democratic state.
