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.

Draft Resolution in the US Congress: Condemning the 1988 Massacre in Iran – Supporting Iranian political refugees in Ashraf 3

-

 On the afternoon of Thursday, July 27, 2023, a draft resolution was passed in the US House of Representatives “condemning the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran for the killing of political prisoners in 1988 and the uprisings of recent years, including those of 2018, 2019, and 2022, and calling for justice for its victims.”



The bipartisan bill killed 40 representatives, initiated by Republican Lance Gooden of the Judiciary Committee and Democratic Caucus Chairman Steve Cohen.

The draft states that the Prime Minister of Albania wrote in a letter to the MEP on April 19, 2016: Albania is fully engaged and committed to guaranteeing all the rights enshrined in the Geneva Convention of 1951, the European Convention on Human Rights, and all international laws relating to Iranian refugees.

The resolution calls on the United States government to ensure with Albania the full protection of Iranian political refugees in Ashraf 3 and their enjoyment of all rights under the 1951 Geneva Convention and the European Convention on Human Rights, including the right to life, the right to liberty and security, and the protection of property, as well as the freedom Expression, ensuring communities.

The decision stipulates that more than 900 men and women in Ashraf 3 have a history of being political prisoners and witnessed the regime’s crimes in prisons, and many of them witnessed the 1988 massacre and other political assassinations, and some of them witnessed the crimes of Ibrahim Raisi. They must have the full protection of standing before potential testimony in any international court.

The decision states that the massacre was carried out based on a fatwa issued by Khomeini targeting the PMOI, according to which 30,000 political prisoners, most of them from the PMOI, were executed.
The resolution adds that following this fatwa, death commissions were formed on July 19, 1988, whose members included the current president of the Iranian regime, Ebrahim Raisi, an official in the Ministry of Intelligence, and a government prosecutor to implement the fatwa.

Hossein Ali Montazeri, the Grand Ayatollah who was Khomeini’s successor, described the MEK’s targeting and mass killing in 1988 as “the greatest crime committed by the Islamic Republic that will condemn our history.”

The draft resolution emphasized that the popular protests that continued for months in hundreds of cities and the security forces of the regime killed hundreds and arrested tens of thousands. It is rooted in more than four decades of organized resistance and is led by women who have experienced torture, gender-based violence, and death.

The project stressed the deprivation of the Iranian people of their basic freedoms and thus the rejection of the monarchical dictatorship and religious tyranny, which is evident in their protest slogans.

In November 2021, the Swedish judiciary moved the entire court in Stockholm to Albania to hear key witnesses to the 1988 massacre in Ashraf 3 for two weeks.

The bill calls on the US House of Representatives to put 7 courses of action on the agenda.

First – The Iranian regime’s condemnation of the 1988 massacre and its denial of evidence of these grave crimes against humanity.

Second – the US government and its allies should publicly condemn the massacre and pressure the Iranian government to provide accurate information to the families of the victims about their loved ones and their final burial places.
Third – The US government and its allies should provide assistance to the families of the victims of the Iranian regime to identify and prosecute the criminals of the 1988 massacre and the killing of demonstrators against this regime in the recent uprisings.

Fourth – Stand by the Iranian people who legitimately defend their right to freedom from oppression, and condemn the brutal killing of Iranian demonstrators by the Iranian regime.

Fifth – The United States government, together with Albania, demands full protection for Iranian political refugees in Ashraf 3 in Albania and their enjoyment of all rights stipulated in the Geneva Convention of 1951 and the European Convention on Human Rights, including the right to life. and the right to liberty, security, and protection of assets, as well as the guarantee of freedom of expression and assembly.

Sixth – Requests the United Nations Human Rights Council to put the killing of thousands of political prisoners in 1988 on the agenda of the independent commission of inquiry that was formed on November 24, 2022, to investigate the ongoing bloody acts of violence against demonstrators.

Seventh: Recognizing the rights of the Iranian people and their struggle to establish a democratic republic based on the separation of religion from the government and a non-nuclear Iran.

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 ...
