Kylie Moore-Gilbert on what Iran’s Revolutionary Guard thinks of Australia
Description
Australia acted against Iran after ASIO found Tehran orchestrated two antisemitic arson attacks on Australian soil – expelling Iran’s ambassador and moving to list the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organisation.
For Kylie Moore-Gilbert, it’s a long time coming.
She spent 804 days imprisoned under IRGC control after being arrested in Tehran on espionage charges.
Today, she explains who the IRGC is, why it would attack Australia, and what this listing would actually change.
