The
Islamic Republic of Iran is about to deport 220,000 Afghan and Iraqi refugees
from Iran back to war torn Afghanistan under the rule of Taliban, and
dictatorship, war and bloodshed imposed on them by the Iraqi government and the
nationalist ruling parties.
The

the refugees. Deportation of the refugees is part of this brutal act.
