Press Conference
Place: Dag Hammarskjold Plaza
Time: 10:00 A.M.
Date: September 23, 2010
(New York, NY, September 22, 2010). Tomorrow, Larry Klayman, the founder of Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch public interest “watchdog” law firms, and the person many such as “Red Country” have called an inspiration for the Tea Party rebellion, will announce that he is amending his class action complaint against Iranian “President” Ahmadinejad (“A-mad”).
Filed one year ago in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the suit names Ahmadinejad, the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Revolutionary Guard, and the government as a whole. This suit, filed on behalf of Akbar Mohammadi, the original founder of the modern Iranian freedom movement, and a fatal victim of the regime (he was murdered in Evan Prison), and his family, will now be expanded to include charges that A-mad and his Islamic extremist cohorts have placed a bounty on the head of each U.S. serviceman murdered by the Taliban and other terrorist groups. Recent documented reports reveal that indeed these atrocities are occurring.
After the complaint is amended early Thursday with charges of paying for murders of American military servicemen, Klayman will then personally seek service upon A-mad as was successfully done previously. Klayman served “A-mad” at his hotel during last year’s UN General Assembly meeting with the original complaint.
Klayman issued this statement in anticipation of his press conference, to be held in front of UN Headquarters, Dag Hammarskjold Plaza at 47th Street and First Avenue, 10:00 am Thursday:
“President Obama and his administration, and even some establishment Republicans, have advocated appeasement of the Islamic regime, resulting in certain acceleration of death and destruction for the Persian people, and the creation of a severe nuclear threat to the world. This policy of appeasement has not worked, and we have recently learned that a bounty for slaughter has been put on the heads of American servicemen by the so-called Islamic Republic of Iran. Now that the Iranian tragedy is so clearly and directly touching Americans, ‘We the People’ must stand up for human rights in defense not only of those brave Persians who are fighting for freedom, but also of U.S. servicemen and women who are being targeted for butchery, as bounty, by an evil, barbaric Islamic tyranny. This ruthless Islamist regime’s program for terrorism and mass murder knows no bounds, and now touches us all — and I for one will not sit back and let it run rampant!”
