Iran is currently observing “American Human Rights Week," in an effort to shame and mock the United States’ human rights violations throughout history.
The government has plastered billboards across Tehran June 26 – July 3 depicting various illustrations of what they deem as unflattering moments in U.S. history, such as the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the 1988 shooting of Iran Air Flight 655 and the torture and detention of captives in Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib prisons.
Other billboards depict American dollar bills with the faces of the presidents replaced with pictures of these historic ‘injustices’ carried out by the U.S., according to Iranian journalist Siobhan Hassanvand who posted images of the billboards.
