Iran’s Execution Machine Is Running at Full Speed

  By Struan Stevenson As diplomats debate ceasefires, nuclear agreements and regional security, another crisis is unfolding inside Iran with alarming speed. While global attention remains fixed on war and negotiations, the clerical regime has launched one of its most extensive campaigns of political executions and repression in recent memory. Young protesters, political activists, students and opposition supporters are being sent to the gallows while much of the democratic world remains distracted. The surge in executions should be a matter of grave concern for every civilized nation. Instead, silence prevails as governments hold their breath, waiting for the latest twist in Donald Trump’s on-again, off-again peace initiative and hopes of an end to conflict involving Iran. Meanwhile, Tehran’s rulers are using the cover of international distraction to intensify their campaign of terror against their own people. Between March and early June alone, at least 32 political prisoners were...

Iran politician says regime responsible for dire socioeconomic conditions

-
By Nikoo Amini
Seyed Hadi Khamenei, the Secretary General of the Assembly of the Forces of Imam’s Line and brother to Iran’s Supreme Leader attacked regime officials and blamed them for Iran’s socioeconomic conditions.
“No one can claim that they had no effect in the formation of current conditions. We have all made big and small mistakes and we have to apologize to the people because of the mistakes that we made,” he said during a speech in a religious ceremony.




He criticized the systematic corruption of the regime and called the widespread embezzlements by regime officials, “shameful”.
Hadi Khamenei said that the reason behind the regime’s financial corruption and embezzlement was the growth of factionalism and the elite who were above the law and made major decisions in the country.
The so-called “reformist” politician who is at odds with his Supreme Leader brother blamed all the factions for Iran’s dire state.
“What is happening today in the society is a product of our actions. If the natural and gradual effect of the violation of rights is not prevented, it will turn into a law and custom,” Hadi Khamenei said.
“Those who had and have higher positions (of power) have to take responsibly for the results. In all the factions, we tend to like to run the society as we like and to have those we want run the country and to have all the managerial positions and power and wealth. This is not right and all the fights and disagreements in the society are because of this,” the cleric added.
The explosive state of Iran’s society as a result of 40 years of corruption and suppression has forced regime officials to admit to their mistakes.
It seems that the regime can no longer control a population that wants regime change.
State-run media reported on Wednesday that a 47 year old man in the southern town of Kazeroon fatally stabbed the town’s head of Friday prayers.
Reports indicate that after stabbing the cleric, Hamid Derakhshande cried out, “I killed the murderer of young Kazeroonis”. He was later detained.
During the 2018 protests in Kazeroon, a large number of protesters were arrested while a number were shot and killed by security forces.
On April 27, a 46 year old cleric identified as Mostafa Qasemi was also shot and killed in the western province of Hamedan.

When War Becomes an Excuse: How Economic Pressure Is Being Shifted Onto Ordinary People

-

  By Reza Hoseani Iran’s economic crisis is no longer just a headline — it has become part of everyday life. Skyrocketing prices, the continuous collapse of the national currency, and shrinking household purchasing power are now affecting nearly every segment of society. But an important question remains: Are these hardships truly the direct result of war and external pressure, or are they rooted in domestic economic policies and political decisions? While state media repeatedly blame regional tensions and foreign conflicts for inflation and market instability, many economists argue that the current crisis is driven far more by internal policymaking than by war itself.   War as a Cover for Internal Economic Failure For years, whenever Iran’s economy entered a deeper phase of crisis, official narratives pointed to external enemies and international tensions. However, economic experts say the immediate impact of war rarely causes inflation on this scale in such a sho...
