Tehran in Meltdown as Israel Decapitates Hamas and Hezbollah

-

  By Struan Stevenson Conflagration engulfs the Middle East, with the Israel-Hamas war having gone on for more than a year now, and many Israeli hostages are still being held in deplorable conditions by Hamas terrorists. In Northern Israel, constant missile and rocket attacks by Hezbollah led to the mass evacuation of more than 70,000 Israelis from their homes in 2024 and to the inevitable military retaliation by the Israel Defense Forces, as they crossed the border into Southern Lebanon. Israeli missiles are raining down on key Hezbollah targets in Beirut. The assassination of Hezbollah’s terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut, a seismic event, shattered his close friend and ally Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader and Hezbollah’s main sponsor. Nasrallah’s successor, Hashem Saffieddine, was also killed in an Israeli airstrike in Beirut within hours of being nominated for the Hezbollah leadership role and before the funeral of his predecessor had even taken place.

IRANIAN REGIME WILL NEVER REFORM

-
by Poorang Novak
The Iranian regime has been given chance after chance to reform but it has failed to do so on each occasion. Different world leaders have used different strategies – taking a harsh approach, rapprochement, appeasement policies, and so on – but none have been effective.
This is why the people of Iran instigated a major uprising at the end of last year. Their only hope of ever experiencing a free and democratic Iran is through regime change. They are determined.

Many agree that regime change cannot be forced by a foreign government – it is something that needs to come from within the country. This is certainly the case with Iran and, if it was not for the appeasement policies, the regime would have toppled years ago. However, it is essential that the people are supported by the international community.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo spoke to an audience of Iranian-Americans about what the Trump administration is doing for Iran. He reassured the audience that the United States “dreams the same dreams for the people of Iran as you do”.
During his “Supporting Iranian Voices” speech, Pompeo said that the U.S. is piling as much financial and diplomatic pressure on Iran as possible because it is absolutely imperative for the regime to be cut off from the funding that it uses to spread terror and destruction.
The time is now because for decades the people of Iran have been waiting and hoping for reformation. They were told time and time again to be patient. Even influential figures in the West promised that the reformist agenda would improve the situation in Iran.
However, they waited and waited and nothing happened. The country is in a mess because of the regime’s mismanagement and corruption. Not only is the economic situation very serious, the environmental situation is critical too.
The so-called reformists have not achieved any of the reforms that they promised. Furthermore, they have played a big role in preserving the corrupt values of the Islamic Republic including the corruption and anti-America rhetoric. It is not just the hard-liners that have created the current political climate, it is all of the officials no matter what they may be labelled as.
The ”moderate” Hassan Rouhani, the current president, promised to resolve the nuclear crisis with the 2015 nuclear agreement that was supposed to bring prosperity to the people of Iran with economic opportunities. The people did not benefit from the deal – instead the regime lined its own pockets and spent billions of dollars on its military activities across the region, namely Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan and Lebanon.
History have proven that a totalitarian and absolutist regime will never be able to reform. Iran needs a new political system; one that is based on democracy and secularism. Once Iran has this, the numerous conflicts the current regime is fuelling in the region will fizzle down enough for them to be extinguished and the whole region will be able to move towards times of peace and security.

Countering Iran’s Threat, Strategies for Regional Stability

-

  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 ...

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...

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 ...
