Article Description
At least 3,919 people have been killed in recent protests in Iran, with some estimates placing the death toll as high as fifteen thousand, in what Foreign Policy calls “the greatest massacre in modern Iranian history.” The regime’s extraordinarily violent crackdown reflects an Islamist ideology willing to kill its own people to preserve its vision of a “true” Islamic state.
