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.

At noon on Wednesday, July 12, 2023, Maryam Rajavi arrived at Italy’s Chamber of Deputies to participate in a hearing hosted by the Foreign Affairs Committee.
The focus of the committee’s discussion was the issue of Iran, and they had extended a special invitation to Maryam Rajavi as a distinguished guest.
Upon her arrival at the parliament, Maryam Rajavi received a warm welcome from Senator Giulio Terzi, as well as a group of MPs and Senators. Additionally, a gathering of Iranians had assembled outside the parliament to extend their welcome to her.
During her address at the hearing, Maryam Rajavi provided a comprehensive overview of the situation in Iran.
She said. “The present situation in Iran is characterized by three key elements: First, we witness the Iranian people’s courageous protests and uprisings to overthrow the mullahs’ regime. Second, the activities of the organized Resistance inside Iran have expanded significantly. And third, it is essential to recognize the regime’s utter inability to effectively address the pressing social, economic, and political crises that plague our nation. These elements collectively shape the domestic and international policies of the ruling mullahs.”
She added, “Several fundamental principles guide the clerical regime’s regional and international policies: First, it remains steadfast in pursuing the development of a nuclear bomb, maintaining its ballistic missile program, and engaging in regional warmongering. Second, it does not intend to stop its acts of terrorism and hostage taking. Third, it continues to make deals with other governments to exert pressure on the Iranian Resistance.
“The clerical regime exploits European markets to procure resources for its nuclear and missile programs, as well as for the production of drones. But the most important element in the regime’s strategy is exploiting its relations with Europe to impose restrictions on the Iranian Resistance and impede the progress of uprisings.
“In recent weeks, the mullahs repeatedly engaged in secret negotiations with Western governments to exert pressure on the Iranian Resistance.
“The need for a change in the European Union’s policy towards the clerical regime has never been more crucial than it is today. Recently, both chambers of the Italian parliament expressed their support for the Iranian Resistance, highlighting the imperative of a shift in European policy regarding Iran.”
Maryam Rajavi called upon the government of Italy and the European Union to embrace a comprehensive policy towards the Iranian regime, encompassing the following steps:
Designating the Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization and actively confronting its presence outside of Iran, including in countries such as Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen, and elsewhere.
Recognizing the Iranian people’s right to self-defense against the IRGC, as well as their right to overthrow the regime and establish a democratic republic based on the separation of religion and state.
Activating the trigger mechanism and implementing snapback sanctions by reinstating the six UN Security Council resolutions on Iran. This includes shutting down all nuclear and missile programs that violate UN resolutions and resuming unconditional inspections of nuclear and missile facilities.
Referring the dossier of the regime’s flagrant and systematic human rights violations to the UN Security Council and holding the regime’s leaders accountable for 40 years of genocide and crimes against humanity.
Severing economic exchanges and imposing comprehensive sanctions on the regime, particularly through an oil embargo and a ban on banking relations. This will effectively cut off the regime’s financial lifelines that enable domestic repression, nuclear weapons development, terrorism, and regional interference.
Declaring the regime as a threat to global peace and security and placing it under Chapter VII of the UN Charter.
Italian MPs Emanuele Pozzolo, Giangiacomo Calovini, as well as Senators Giulio Terzi, Marco Scurria, and Raffaele Speranzon, participated in the hearing and delivered their respective addresses.

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...
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 ...
