Countering Iran’s Threat, Strategies for Regional Stability

Image
  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 financing, arming, train

  Tehran- Iranian resistance units attacked the anti-human regime prisons organization at 2200 on Wednesday night, September 28, 2022. Greetings to the prisoners of the uprising in response to the executioners and torturers of the children of the Iranian people. The organization of prisons and security measures operates directly under the supervision of the head of the judiciary of the Mullah regime and its headquarters is in Tehran. Torturer Gholam Ali Mohammadi, the current head of the prison organization, was the deputy judicial officer of the same organization and the deputy head of the religious fascism judiciary in Tehran.

Raisi’s UN platform will boost Iran regime’s sense of impunity

Image
  By Dr. Majid Rafizadeh Hard-line Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who is  known  as the “Butcher of Tehran,” should be held accountable for his crimes rather than given a platform to spread his propaganda. According to human rights organizations, since Raisi took office last year, Iran has conducted a “ horrific wave of executions ” — an ominous accomplishment for a regime already recognized as having the world’s highest rate of executions per capita. In Raisi’s first 12 months as president, Tehran carried out more than  520 executions , far surpassing the total for 2021 (366) and 2020 (255). In the meantime, the regime’s judiciary has implemented a number of barbaric sentences of corporal punishment, including the  amputation  of convicts’ fingers. Raisi himself issued a directive for stricter enforcement of “chastity and hijab” last month, allowing for more “Guidance Patrols” to harass and even assault women in public for allegedly flouting forced veiling laws. The death last week

Iran Protests Underscores Folly of UN Embracing Iran’s Regime President

Image
  Written by  Alejo Vidal Quadras Iran’s regime President Ebrahim Raisi only vaguely alluded to ongoing protests in Iran when he addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday. Even then, he did so for the sole purpose of casting aspersions on his Western adversaries and implying that they were taking advantage of an incident that was still “being investigated”. Those remarks came only a few days after an  interview with CBS  News in which Raisi suggested that investigations were also necessary to ascertain whether or not the Holocaust happened. That tells you something about the value of investigations of Iran’s theocratic regime. In reality, there is nothing more to investigate regarding the incident that sparked the ongoing protests. Last week, Iran’s so-called  morality police  violently arrested a young woman named Mahsa Amini because she was allegedly wearing her mandatory head covering too loosely. Shortly after the arrest, she was transported to the hospital after f

The UN Should Not Have Invited a 'Butcher' to Speak, but the US Can Fix Its Mistake

Image
  By Dr. Majid Rafizadeh The United Nations is on the verge of giving a platform to one of the world’s worst human rights violators. This mistake can and must be fixed by the US government. The US can easily prevent the regime President Ebrahim Raisi’s participation in the 77th session of the UN General Assembly, by denying him a visa. It has abundant cause to do so, based both on national security concerns and on basic principle. Last month, the Department of Justice  unsealed its case  against a member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), who had been observed actively attempting to facilitate the assassination of former National Security Advisor John Bolton on US soil. His known activities date back to only two months after Raisi was sworn in as president of the regime. According to human rights organizations, since Raisi took office last year, the regime has conducted a “ horrific wave of executions ” – an ominous accomplishment for a regime already recognized as having

MARYAM RAJAVI: INSTEAD OF WELCOMING RAISI, THE HENCHMAN OF THE 1988 MASSACRE, PROSECUTE HIM

  Message to the Iranians’ rally in New York Dear compatriots and supporters of the Iranian Resistance, Greetings to all of you. I commend you especially because in circumstances where the  people of Iran , from Kurdistan to Tehran, have risen up against Khamenei’s bloodthirsty tyranny, you have hoisted the flag of their movement and uprising in front of the United Nations. Your cries echo the voice of the Iranian people against the United Nations admitting the henchman of the 1988 massacre. The unjustified death of  Mahsa Amini , who is now the daughter of all of Iran, ignited the powder keg in our rebellious cities. The regime’s death knell From Saqqez, Sanandaj, and Divandarreh, to Tehran, Karaj, Isfahan, Mashhad, Rasht, and other cities of Iran, brave protesters have shaken the pillars of Khamenei’s oppressive rule with their chants of “From Kurdistan to Tehran,  Iran  is drenched in blood,” “Khamenei is a murderer, his rule is illegitimate,” and “Death to the oppressor, be it the

NCRI Supporters in Brussels Call on Belgian Judiciary to Block Release of Iranian State Terrorists

Image
  On Monday, September 19, while the Belgian  Court of First Instance  held its session to hear the Iranian National Council of Resistance’s legal team as well as the Belgian government’s arguments on the new Iranian-Belgian prisoner swap treaty, a large demonstration was held in Brussels, in front of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Many Iranians from across Europe joined hands and voices to call on the Belgian Judicial System to stand firm against an immoral decision made by the Belgian Executive and Legislative Branches to execute a treaty that paves the way for unchallenged terrorism on European soil by releasing convicted state terrorists into Tehran’s embracing arms. Former MEP from Portugal, Paolo Casaca, addressed the demonstration  and said : “With utmost shock and bewilderment, I and so many others were informed about the secret negotiations of the Belgian Foreign Affairs Ministry and the regime in Iran. These negotiations were aimed to sign off an international treaty so the

Iran’s Regime Is Deliberately Blocking a Nuclear Agreement, and the West Keeps Accommodating It

Image
  Written by  Mehdi Oghbai The Iranian regime is continually demanding concessions from western powers as they strive to contain the clerical regime’s drive for a nuclear weapons capability. Fortunately, the international community has shown little willingness to give into that regime’s ultimatums, which include demands for the abrupt closure of the file on past military dimensions of Iran’s nuclear program, as well as the removal of terrorist designation for the  Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps . On the other hand, major Western powers have proven consistently unwilling to deprive Tehran of opportunities to go on reiterating those demands and outlining the concessions it hopes to receive. They could easily do so, however, if only they asserted the political will to halt negotiations to revive the 2015 Iran nuclear deal. Over the course of 18 months, those negotiations have gone practically nowhere, and their only consistent effect is the prevention of measures that might compel the
