Only Western unity can stop Iran hostage-diplomacy
EUobserver
UANI Advisory Board Member Barry Rosen writes: "The Belgian parliament's recent decision to ratify its prisoner-exchange treaty with Iran is a grave mistake, and one which exemplifies the many downfalls of dealing with Iran's human-rights abuses on a case-by-case basis. As many as two dozen dual-national citizens, including five Americans and 15 Europeans, remain in captivity in Iranian prisons, in total violation of international law. These individuals have suffered unspeakably at the hands of the Iranian regime, often being subjected to humiliating show trials, before being isolated, tortured and starved for long periods of time, for no other reason than to publicly demonstrate the power the regime holds over them."
