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.

26 million denied homes as Iran’s housing market prices jump by 90%

-
By Nikoo Amini
According to a state-run newspaper, 30% of Iranians live in rented homes while 2.5 million homes are left uninhabited.
“26.6 million Iranians live in rented squalid homes and apartments,” Vatane Emrooz wrote.
The newspaper said that the owners of the 2.5 million uninhabited homes refused to rent their homes or would only rent them out at outrageous prices that almost no one could afford.
The price of rent in large cities has turned into a huge problem for Iranians who live under the line of poverty.

Iranian officials blame everything on the US and say that all economic problems are the result of sanctions. They say that institutionalized corruption and government mismanagement have had little to do with the economic crisis in Iran.
This is while sanctions have had very minimum effects on many economic problems, including the housing market.
According to the latest statistics released by Iran’s Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, the price of housing has risen by an average of 90% in the past year.
A regime affiliated economist recently told Tasnim state-run news agency that US sanctions had not effected Iran’s housing market.
“The sanctions have not effected the housing market,” he said adding that the price hike started in the second half of last year when there were still no comprehensive sanctions.
Iran’s housing market is under the control and ownership of wealthy regime affiliated mafias. Various officials have also dominated large parts of the housing market, pocketing the profit. One of the largest foundations that control the housing market is the Islamic Revolution Housing Bonyad owned by Iran’s Supreme Leader.
This is just one of the many foundations and institutions controlled by Ali Khamenei who has an estimated net worth of 200 billion dollars.
In an unprecedented move yesterday, US President Donald Trump imposed sanctions on the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran as well as on the Supreme Leader’s Office.
According to a White House statement, “The President’s order will deny Iran’s leadership access to financial resources and authorizes the targeting of persons appointed to a certain official or other position by the Supreme Leader or the Supreme Leader’s Office.”
Another institution responsible for Iran’s housing crisis is the Mehr Housing Project, which began under the presidency of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. It is currently under the control of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.

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 ...

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 ...
