Demands for Canada to declare Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization

Ontario Superior Court Justice Edward Belobaba described the shooting down of Flight 752 by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards’ (IRGC) missiles as “a terrorist and intentional act,” according to Global News Canada.

CBC Canada said that four survivors of Flight 752, along with a woman who did not want to be named, had filed a public case against the Iranian regime in a court in Ontario. The Iranian government did not send any representatives to this court nor did it defend itself against the charges.

This court ruling is an effective authorization for survivors of Flight 752 victims to obtain compensation from the Iranian regime.

A Ukrainian aircraft bearing flight number PS752 was shot down by at least two IRGC missiles on January 8, 2020, killing all 176 people on board, most of them Iranians and Iranian-Canadian citizens. Citizens (including dual nationals) from Afghanistan, Britain, Germany, Sweden and Ukraine were also killed in the incident.

Belobaba said there was no territorial dispute when the IRGC fired missiles at Flight 752 and that they fired the missiles “intentionally”.

The Ontario Superior Court said the report prepared by the then-Canadian Social Security Minister also showed that the Iranian regime's claim that “human error” played a role in the downing of the plane is not true.

Iranian opposition leader Maryam Rajavi said that “the Iranian regime is considered a festering abscess not only for Iran, but also for the entire human world, an abscess that contains a tissue and a structure of oppression and terrorism. The Iranian people are considered one of the peoples to which the infection was transmitted, as they suffered from its consequences and still do for 42 years, and they realize after their bitter experience that there is no other way but surgery and excision. Today, the world is aware of the nature of this dirty gland more and more, and has realized its pests. Among the signs that brought the world to this state of awareness, clear examples of this can be cited, such as the ruling of the Superior Court in Ontario, Canada, regarding the shooting down of a Ukrainian plane.”

The court described the IRGC’s actions as “terrorist and intentional,” and accused the IRGC, the regime's armed forces and Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei of committing the crime.

The Ontario court ruled in favor of the families of the victims, and the indictment stated that “the Iranian regime committed an act of terrorism by shooting down a Ukrainian plane under the Canadian Anti-Terrorism Act.”

Now, after five months of deliberations, the court has ruled that it the attack was “intentional” and “terrorist”, in contrast to the fabrications and lies of the mullah regime, which sought to portray the incident as a result of “human error” and a host of unintended factors.

Meanwhile, the special expenditures taken from the money of the poor in Iran and provided to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the purpose of covering up the crime did not help.

It is important to note that the weak reaction by the mullah regime shows the depth of the strike, as Foreign Affairs spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said that “the Canadian court has no jurisdiction to look into the plane crash or possible negligence.”

The interesting thing is that the Iranian Foreign Ministry is making this stupid argument about incompetence. Meanwhile, when the Belgian court of Antwerp made an unprecedented ruling against Iranian terrorist Asadollah Asadi, no political party or media platform anywhere in the world wasted its time and space to express these painful grievances except for the regime's media.

These two legal slaps with final rulings from prestigious international courts, one in Europe (Antwerp) and the other in Canada (Ontario), show that the policy of extortion and threats is not only ineffective, but even has the opposite effect.

In addition, the result has heavy political and international implications for the terrorist mullahs and killers in the midst of the Vienna talks and Tehran’s long plea for the lifting of sanctions. It is also a message to the remnants of the militants that any investment in this regime will not only have a future, but will have its effects that appear in the form of killings and terrorism.

Now, after the final judgments of these two trusted courts have been passed, it is time for the international community to take measures to act against the regime, especially since experience has shown that wherever this predator weakens, it becomes more daring and aggressive, but whenever it encounters a decisive policy, it retreats and only screams.

On this basis, Maryam Rajavi, the elected president of the Iranian Resistance, called on Canada and the European Union to immediately place the IRGC on the list of terrorist organizations following the judgment of the court in Ontario.
