  The Strategic Defeat in Syria and Lebanon Is a Clear Reflection of the Clerical Regime’s Weakness and Instability The Next Dictatorship to Be Overthrown is the Mullahs’ Regime We are happy that PMOI members at Ashraf 3 are joining us today in this conference. We welcome them. Mr. Secretary, Welcome to the Home of the Iranian Resistance. We are delighted to host you in the early days of the New Year. I hope this year will be a successful year for the people of the United States and a year of freedom, peace and prosperity for our people and the entire Middle East. The Regime’s Setbacks in 2024 2024 was a year full of serious defeats for the regime. We saw widespread boycotts of two sham elections, increased resistance in prisons, more young people joining Resistance Units, and the expansion of their activities. The regime also confronted a broken economy, 40% inflation, widespread poverty and massive financial corruption, especially among officials and IRGC commanders and growing d...

US Must Impose Sanctions on Iran for Its Role in Syrian Chemical Attack

-
Iran Focus
London, 12 Apr - Following the devastating chemical attack in Eastern Ghoutta, Syria, that killed dozens of civilians and injured thousands, we may well see another US strike against Syrian airfields.
In 2017, following a chemical attack on the Syrian people by Bashar Assad’s forces, Donald Trump condemned the dictator on Twitter and ordered 59 Tomahawk missiles to strike Syria’s Shayrat Airfield, where the chemical attack had been launched from.

Now, Trump has already condemned Assad on Twitter and called out Iran and Russia for their support of the Syrian dictator. But will a missile strike really go far enough?
Eli Lake wrote on Awwsat that this would be nothing more than a half measure because Trump desperately wants to remove US troops from Syria.
Lake advises that what Trump should really do is break up the Russo-Iranian-Assad coalition in order to allow the Syrian people to overthrow their dictator, otherwise the humanitarian crisis caused by the Syrian civil war will only get worse.
For instance, many Syrians have fled the country looking for safety in other states. Syria has proposed seizing their abandoned homes in order to reward their Iranian benefactors by giving homes (or the money from their sale) to Iran. Money that Iran would not doubt plunge back into their foreign interventionism and support for terrorists.
The US should also lead the way to impose new sanctions on Iran for its role in the Syrian Civil War. The mullahs have plunged billions of USD into the conflict since 2011, providing troops, weapons, money, and training.
Iran had two reasons for being in Syria and it wasn't the ones that they have readily provided, fighting ISIS and defending the shrines. Iran’s militias are hundreds of miles from the shrines and the threat of ISIS has been all but defeated by the US-led forces.
No, Iran entered Syria hoping to crush the people’s uprising. They believed that they could use this to stop the Iranian people from rising up in protest, which has not worked, and turning Syria into a vassal state, which might.
Sanctions on Iran would punish them for their involvement in Syria, cut off the cash flow to the brutal Syrian dictatorship, and could even help the Iranian people rise up against the mullahs.
Lake wrote: “If Trump really ends up following through on his promise to get out of Syria (perhaps as early as October), he will be... helping Iran complete its land bridge to the Mediterranean Sea.”

Countering Iran’s Threat, Strategies for Regional Stability

-
Image
  Written by Mahmoud Hakamian Two-minute read On Sunday morning, April 14, the Iranian regime launched an unprecedented attack against Israel, escalating tensions in the Middle East. Despite military experts’ assessments that the attack failed, it underscores  Iran’s role as a focal point  of regional conflict. The October 7th attack sent shockwaves globally. Despite ample evidence implicating the Iranian regime, Western governments dismissed Tehran’s involvement, adhering to a flawed appeasement policy toward the primary state sponsor of terrorism. They disregarded explicit statements from Revolutionary Guards  (IRGC) commanders boasting  about their direct role in the attack. For decades, the Iranian Resistance has urged the international community to adopt a resolute stance against the Iranian regime’s aggression and terrorism. Despite persistent calls, the failed appeasement policy of the West allowed Tehran to escalate its belligerent activities, including ...

Link to call signing: https://www.change.org/p/un-secretary-general-call-for-justice-for-the-1988-iran-massacre Let's move our hands to change our world In the age of consciousness, and in the 21st century, brutality and barbarism must be stopped, this is not worthy of humanity. At the first step, you should be the center of this cruelty and the godfather of crime and murder, terrorism and fundamentalism that nobody is part of Iran's terrorist government. The fact is that the killing and execution of political and conscientious prisoners in public or in prisons is secretly in its astronomical dimensions on the coin of killing innocent people abroad by this regime. The issuance of terrorism and the support of fundamentalist and terrorist groups in this regime is institutionalized and is part of the constitution. The crimes committed by perpetrators and groups affiliated with this corrupt and expansionist state in Syria and Lebanon and Iraq ...

Iran nuclear deal must be fixed before it is too late

By DR. MAJID RAFIZADEH President Donald Trump will make a decision on whether the US will leave or stick with the Iran nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, by May 12. It has been almost three years since the nuclear accord was reached between the Islamic Republic and the UN Security Council’s five permanent members — Russia, the UK, China, France, and the US — plus Germany (the P5+1). Since the JCPOA’s implementation day on Jan. 16, 2016, the Iranian regime has been receiving various benefits that can be divided into four categories. Based on the terms of the JCPOA, four rounds of the United Nations Security Council’s economic sanctions against Tehran were  lifted  immediately.  The regime also received  unilateral  sanctions relief from individual countries in exchange for halting its nuclear activities and dismantling some sections of its nuclear program. For instanc...
