Intensifying U.S. Economic Pressure: Washington’s New Move Against the Mullahs’ Regime and Its Consequences

  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 ...

Russia, Iran and the West

‌By: DR. MAJID RAFIZADEH With both the Iranian regime and Russia being hit by further sanctions from the West, particularly the US, the two have become militarily, politically and economically closer than ever before. One of the common interests between Moscow and Tehran is a desire to counterbalance and even scuttle European and US foreign policy, particularly at these critical times. Militarily, the Iranian regime continues to provide Russia with drones. Although there have been some reports that Iranian drones have been failing, the Wall Street Journal last month confirmed that “Russia has inflicted serious damage on Ukrainian forces with recently introduced Iranian drones.” This is due to the fact that the Iranian drones have proved very difficult to shoot down. Russia is tilting more toward Tehran as a result of these drones. Russia’s employment of Iranian drones has caused the deaths of many Ukrainians. Its increasing use of Iranian Mohajer and Shahed drones has resulted in Ukrai...

  By Dr. Majid Rafizadeh Widespread protests in Iran, which are primarily due to people’s dissatisfaction with the regime’s political repression, restrictive religious laws, human rights violations and economic hardships, have shaken the core of the theocratic establishment. The latest protests have a distinct character and are not just limited to the regime’s repressive restrictions on women’s rights. Mohsen Mahdian, a member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, admitted: “The events that happened in these two days are unprecedented. These protests were unprecedented in the last 40 years. Why unprecedented, because there has never been a period of protests in such a way that you can see violence and disturbance from the first hour. The real story is not the hijab, the story is not about the morality police or the death of Mahsa (Amini), they are targeting the system. And this is obvious in their slogans if you analyze them logically over the past two days. You will understand...
