Surprise! Iranian regime caught lying again trying to hide that Iran developed missiles to threaten all of Europe. Feb 28, 2026 – Iran’s FM: "We kept the range of our missiles below 2,000 km." March 21, 2026 – Iran targets Diego Garcia, ~4,000 km away. 4,000 km from Iran reaches: Berlin. Paris. London.

Just 3 days before the war, the Iranian regime said they don’t obtain long-range missiles. Today, their lies were exposed once again, when missiles were fired 4000km away from Iran. They hoped to lie their way into becoming a force that can terrorize the world. We didn’t buy it.

The Iranian regime just attacked a kindergarten in Israel. They are going after our children.

Eid Mubarak! Wishing love, joy, and togetherness to all.

It’s time for the world to recognise Somaliland as an independent and sovereign nation. Visegrad24’s founder Stefan Tompson explains why:

The Iranian regime's missiles struck Jerusalem. Christian, Muslim & Jewish Holy sites were impacted. While Israel remains committed to protecting these holy sites for all, the Iranian regime continues to deliberately target them.

Three Palestinian women killed in Bayt Awa by an Iranian cluster missile strike captured on camera by Jewish residents in nearby Asael. The Iranian regime deliberately uses cluster munitions to target civilians - Jews and Arabs alike - with missiles designed to cause wide-scale indiscriminate harm.

Grace Tame claims the mantle of activism, but her compassion is ‘selective’. She did not stand with the women of Iran as they were beaten, tortured, raped and then murdered by the regime. She did not stand with persecuted Christians in Iran, Lebanon, or Syria. She has not stood with Israeli women who were raped and sexually tortured as a weapon of war. In fact she’s denied the horrors of October 7, because the victims were Jews. That is not principled activism. It is selective outrage driven by politics. If an award is meant to represent moral courage and universal human rights, then those who apply those principles selectively should not hold it. Grace Tame should lose her Australian of the year award.

Thank you Lord Roberts, the truth of October 7 is denied by many. Your work helps us counter the lies.
