U.S. should empower the Iranian people, denying the regime regrouping time By Carla Sands – Wednesday, August 26, 2026 OPINION: For more than four decades, the regime in Tehran has fueled terrorism, destabilized the Middle East through proxy militias, pursued nuclear weapons capability and brutally oppressed its own people. Successive American administrations tried diplomacy, sanctions and accommodation. None has fundamentally altered Tehran’s behavior. By confronting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and refusing to accept the regime’s long-held assumption that it can threaten American interests without consequence, President Trump has changed the strategic landscape. Still, military action alone does not guarantee lasting political victory. The recent weakening of the regime has created a historic strategic opportunity. Continuing the maximum pressure campaign, the United States should embrace a political strategy that empowers the Iranian people, denying the regime tim...

The uprising of the Venezuelan people and its reflection on the Iran regime
The uprising of the Venezuelan people has become an international issue
So far, several countries in the world have been recognized the head of the parliament against the rule of Maduro, as the interim presidency of Venezuela.
With the ultimatum of 6 European countries to Maduro to hold fast early elections
to resolve the peaceful and democratic resolution of the Venezuelan issue,the country’s crisis has entered a new phase.
Spain, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Portugal and the Netherlands have raised this deadline.
The leader of the Catholic world in Panama, in response to a reporter’s question, said: “I am a supporter of the Venezuelan people, wishing peace for the people of Venezuela.”
When the Iranian regime does not find its way out of the crisis, Severity of sanctions and the process of international developments in relation to the Venezuelan government, which is a unit of religious fascism in Iran, has increased the horrors of the Iranian regime from the consequences of the economic crisis and the danger of popular protests and uprisings.
Amir Mohebian, a member of Khamenei’s gang that the government media outlined as the theorist of the gang, In response to that question “Given the rise in economic pressures in 2019 in Iran and what happened in countries like France and Venezuela, How likely is there that in Iran there will be a reaction to the economic situation? ”
He acknowledged that “the possibility of an uprising to regional and global flows, as it occurred in December 2017, is possible.
In my opinion, these protests are not abnormal.
The government must take a new approach to this new situation and even a new strategy.
That people protest against problems that have not been resolved it is quite natural.
If we saw someone did not protest, he should be surprised.
He remarked to government officials: “The Iranian regime is now in a situation where it is necessary to recognize the protest as a legal right, and to actually allow it to protest. The protest should not be considered a practical act against the Iranian regime.”
Therefore with any change in the political scene of the countries and with any insurrection in any part of the world, the regime of Iran is in horror, first of all, and even more so than the rulers of the same countries.
The mullah regime knows well that a fate awaits the dictators like the rest of the dictatorship.

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. The central theme of the gathering was the urgent need for a new, decisive international policy towards Iran, with a strong emphasis on supporting democratic change and recognizing the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) as a viable alternative to the current regime. The event served as a significant platform for global lawmakers to voice their concerns over the deteriorating human rights situation in Iran, the regime’s escalating domestic repression, its destabilizing regional activities, and its persistent pursuit of a nuclear program. A recurring call throughout the conference was for Western governments to adopt a firmer stance, including the ...
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...
By Reza Hoseani Is Washington’s economic fury more effective than military warfare? An examination of the United States’ new sanctions targeting the IRGC’s financial lifelines and their impact on Iran’s explosive social environment. Amid the regime’s paralyzing deadlock between war and restraint, Washington has made its choice unmistakably clear: an all-out economic war instead of a large-scale military war. This choice is not the product of moderation. Rather, it reflects an understanding that economic pressure may be more lethal to the regime, less costly for the West, and more socially acceptable to the Iranian people than military intervention. 1. From “Maximum Pressure” to “Economic Fury”: The IRGC’s Lifelines in the Crosshairs In recent months, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has escalated economic pressure through two new initiatives. First came what has been described as Operation Economic Fury, announced by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. He stated explicitly ...
