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.

Iran Regime's Space Threat

-
The threat of the Iranian regime's atmosphere is a problem that can not be ignored
I invite you to read a good article in this regard


By Sedighe Shahrokhi
At the beginning of the year, the Iranian regime made two attempts at satellite launches. However, both failed to reach orbit. The United States objected to the launches for the reason that the technology is the same as that for intercontinental ballistic missiles.
The Iran threat is something that President Trump has emphasised time and time again. He will not accept Iran’s belligerence and is repeatedly warning about the danger the regime presents to the region and beyond. The Iran threat is growing as it improves its cyberspace capabilities too.
Iran regime’s space program stems from the missile program that started in the eighties. In 2003, the Iranian parliament approved plans for the establishment of the Iranian Space Agency (ISA) and the Supreme Space Council (SSC).
The space program was supported by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad while he was in office from 2005 at a time when the nuclear tensions between Iran and the West were intensifying.
In 2009, the Omid satellite – Iran’s first indigenous one – was launched with success. The following year, Iranian officials revealed the Simorgh SLV which is based on North Korea’s Nodong missile. In the past three years, Iran has tried a few more Simorgh launches with no success.
Five years ago, the Iranian regime opened a space monitoring centre that is furthering bolstering the country’s space program.
Iran is maintaining that its space program is for peaceful purposes only, just as it has said regarding its nuclear program. However, the Iranian regime is being pressured from all fronts – the United States has re-imposed tough economic sanctions and, on the domestic front, the people of Iran are making widespread calls for regime change.
Finding itself running out of options and becoming increasingly weaker in the region, the regime is looking at other ways to expand its influence. Its cyber capabilities are becoming more sophisticated with time and it is putting a lot of effort into other areas that could serve as threats to the international community.
Last year, President Trump called on Pentagon to set up a “space force” that operates independently from the military. Russia and China objected but it is clear that Trump has realised that there is a potential for a space war. And he was perhaps concerned about Iran’s space capabilities that are improving and advancing all the time.
Iran is not as advanced as Russia and China in its space program, but the threat remains high because of the combined capability of the ballistic missile and nuclear programs.
However, what makes the Iran threat so critical is the regime’s desperation. It is being backed into a corner and this is what will make its future moves unpredictable. For this reason, the Iranian regime must be subject to further sanctions and pressure from the whole of the international community. Only then will it run out of resources.

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...

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 ...
