For Islamic Revolutionary Guard strategist Hassan Abbasi, guarding Iran's Islamic Revolution is his top priority - even if he himself is sentenced to death. And what could be more admirable than the parents who hand their own children over to the firing squad for opposing the regime?
.... I recall that since the beginning of the Revolution, some of the great people in this regime… With their own hands… Some people have executed their own children. Yes. They handed their own children over to the firing squad – this is incredible!
