Iranian President Raisi must have been a really good guy, to judge from the reaction of the United Nations, the European Union, the World Health Organization, and countless world leaders to his death.
Our condolences to the people of #Iran for the death of President Raisi, Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian, and others who perished in the helicopter crash.— NATO Spokesperson Farah Dakhlallah (@NATOpress) May 20, 2024
The United Nations Security Council held a moment of silence to mourn his passing, which makes sense since his country chairs the organization’s Human Rights Council. No better choice could have been imagined.

One European Union official expressed his solidarity with Iran, expressing the grief felt by all world leaders at the untimely death of the “Butcher of Tehran.” Perhaps the EU could hold a ceremonial stoning of a woman or execution of a rape victim in honor of his passing. Hanging a few gays and beating women who have revealed their hair might be in order, too.
We express our condolences to the people of #Iran and the families of the late President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-abdollahian, and all those who lost their lives in the helicopter crash yesterday.— Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus (@DrTedros) May 20, 2024
The World Health Organization’s Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus’ admiration for President Raisi makes sense, given that he was himself a member of a terrorist organization not that long ago. Government officials who promote genocidal policies have to stick together.
UN-real: Head of UN nuclear agency holds minute of silence for mass murdering terrorists. “In honor of the late President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Dr. Ebrahim Raisi, and Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian, who passed tragically…”
Shame on you, @rafaelmgrossi. https://t.co/yYywux0xcF— Hillel Neuer (@HillelNeuer) May 20, 2024
Iran was famous for its commitment to the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons, ensuring that his death be properly mourned by the UN’s nuclear nonproliferation agency.
The European Council’s grief cannot adequately be expressed, but they sure tried.
