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 Regime’s Band – Aid Solutions Deteriorates Economic Crisis

-
I invite you to give a glimpse of this good and precise article by the author of the economic situation in Iran.

By Shahriar Kia
Under a development plan, Iran had planned to change its banking system and work on changing monetary policies. The Rouhani administration wanted to change the country’s national currency from the Rial to the Toman a few years ago. However, the administration put these plans to change the national currency on hold because of the economic uncertainty at that time.
Changing the currency from the Rial to the Toman would eliminate some of the zeros that complicate calculations. Taking some of the zeros away, however, will not improve the purchasing power of the people. It will help with the everyday exchange of money and it would go some way towards fighting against the recent sharp devaluation of the Rial.


Inflation, supply and demand, job creation, investments and economic indices would also not be impacted by such modifications.
Currency reconversion must be undertaken very carefully and a number of factors should already be present before such a major process is started. Single-digit inflation is something that should be present. As is economic stability. Neither of these factors are in any way present in Iran.
The Iranian government is attempting to control liquidity and money volume. Mohammad Reza Sabzalipour, an Iranian economist, explained that the government is trying to resolve several problems at the same time.
“It seeks to control money and liquidity volume in the society i.e. cutting four zeroes would change the present 17 quadrillion rials (about $404 billion) of liquidity down to 1.7 trillion rials (about $40.4 million) overnight, but the zeroes will incrementally come back and liquidity will be increased over time, in case CBI [Central bank of Iran] continues printing fiat money.”
The Iranian regime is falling into the trap of taking measure that will initially bring some sort of appeasement to the people, but it essentially would be a cosmetic action that would appear to decrease the cost of goods and services. It is something that will very quickly be found to be nothing more than a political move. Not an economic one.
The conditions were not right in 2016 when it was rejected. The conditions are even worse now – a reason for it to be denied once again.
Poverty in the country is an increasing issue. People are losing their life savings and more and more people are being made unemployed because of the poor economic conditions. An increasing number of people are falling into the absolute poverty category.
The economic sanctions that were put back in place by the Trump administration have had an effect on this, but it must not be forgotten that the Iranian regime’s corruption and mismanagement is what sparked this all off. The Iranian regime made the decision to neglect the people at home in favour of meddling abroad.
The people of Iran took their future into their own hands over a year ago when they decided to initiate protests and anti-government demonstrations. They have been keeping up the momentum and there is no doubt that they will be the driving force behind the regime change that will change the dynamics of the region for the better.

  Written by Shamsi Saadati Paris, France  – On Saturday, May 17, 2025, an influential international conference convened in Paris, uniting parliamentarians and prominent political figures from a wide array of countries including the United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, Malta, Switzerland, Romania, Portugal, and the Netherlands.

A recurring call throughout the conference was for Western governments to adopt a firmer stance, including the ...

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...

However, Iranian women play critical roles in challenging the regime and pushing the situation towards overthrowing the mullahs.” Madam ...
