Countering Iran’s Threat, Strategies for Regional Stability

  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

British lawmakers meet with Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, visit Ashraf 3

Two prominent lawmakers from the United Kingdom met with Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), on February 23, 2023. In their meeting with Mrs. Rajavi, Hon. Bob Blackman, MP from the UK House of Commons, and Rt. Hon. David Jones MP, the former Secretary of State for Wales, former Brexit Minister of State, and President of the Parliamentary British Committee for Iran Freedom, expressed their support for the uprising of the Iranian people and their aspirations to live in a free and democratic republic.



Mr. Jones and Mr. Blackman acknowledged the extensive history of oppression suffered by the Iranian people under both the Shah and the mullahs, marked by the cries of “death to the oppressor, be it the Shah or the mullahs’ supreme leader” echoing throughout Iranian cities. They recognized that these cries represent a strong rejection of all forms of dictatorship by the Iranian people.

“It is absurd to think that the people of Iran, who longed for freedom above all else, would return to a past where they were oppressed and denied their fundamental freedoms,” they said.

During the meeting, Mrs. Rajavi expressed her gratitude to the representatives of the people of Britain for their consistent support of democracy and human rights in Iran. She highlighted that despite its oppressive measures and schemes, the clerical regime has not been able to stop the uprising. Neither has it been able to eradicate the Resistance Units and the courageous youth who are the driving force of the protests.

She emphasized that the Iranian people’s anger and frustration have reached a boiling point, fueled by poverty, state corruption, plunder, and systematic discrimination. Meanwhile, the vanguard force has gained even more experience, motivation, organization, and strength.

Mr. Jones and Mr. Blackman presented Mrs. Rajavi with a statement signed by 250 members of both Houses of the British Parliament from all political parties. The statement expressed support for the Iranian people’s nationwide uprising, the Iranian Resistance, and Mrs. Rajavi’s Ten-point Plan for the future of Iran.

“It is time to recognise the right of the Iranian people to defend themselves and overthrow this regime and to establish a democratic, secular republic,” the lawmakers said.

The signatories of the statement, which includes members of both Houses of the British Parliament, recognized the NCRI as the democratic alternative to the clerical regime and deserving of full support.

“The United Nations Security Council should hold to account those responsible for committing crimes against the Iranian people, especially the regime’s Supreme Leader Khamenei and the current president, Ebrahim Raisi, and bring them to justice,” the statement reads.

The statement also recognizes that “the Resistance Units and the organised Resistance by the PMOI/MEK play a serious role in organising and continuing these protests and resisting suppression.”

Mr. Jones and Mr. Blackman also visited Ashraf 3 in Albania, home to members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), where they addressed a gathering of MEK members and visited the museum of the Iranian Resistance.
