@drpezeshkian You don’t serve the people at all. If you did, you’d focus on feeding them instead of wasting the country’s money on financing terrorists and trying to build nuclear weapons to go commit genocide. On top of that, you’re a powerless puppet who can’t give any military orders

@tparsi What is your solution exactly, let the murderous regime stay in power and get their money back so they can keep funding proxies and doing everything except take care of the people? Oh right, you’re too much of a coward to directly admit you support this government and all they do

The Mideast is once again teetering on the brink as Trump appears poised to reignite war with Iran. While Trump's threats of war may be theatre designed to force Tehran into submission, Tehran expects the US to attack it within the next 48 hours. We should recognize that restarting the war amounts to an admission that Trump’s previous escalatory gambit — the blockade of the blockade — has failed. That, in turn, was itself an admission that the war had failed. Which was an admission that the threats of war in January had failed. As I have argued before, this relentless search for an escalatory silver bullet capable of bringing Iran to its knees is not unique to Trump; it has become a defining pathology of American Iran policy for decades. And as Washington has come to realize that the blockade is backfiring, a new and dangerous dynamic has emerged: both sides now believe another round of fighting will strengthen their hand in the negotiations that follow. As I argued in January, Trump dramatically underestimated Iran’s strength, while hard-liners in Tehran believed war would strengthen Iran’s leverage by exposing the illusion of Iranian weakness. In their view, the outcome of the conflict vindicated that assessment, leaving them increasingly confident — even emboldened — about what a second round of war could yield. Moreover, just as Tehran believes Trump intends to prosecute the next war with far greater ferocity, Iranian planners are preparing a far more expansive and punishing retaliatory campaign, complete with new strategic objectives and targets. First, they see it as an opportunity to inflict maximum strategic damage on the UAE, citing Abu Dhabi’s active role in the previous conflict and its role in urging Trump to resume hostilities. Tehran is likely to target American data centers in the UAE, a move that serves multiple purposes. Iran sees these firms as participants in the conflict. At the same time, Tehran sees an opportunity to cripple the UAE’s ambitions to become a global artificial intelligence hub — and, in doing so, potentially undermine Washington’s AI competition with China.

Massie's primary race has broken all spending records - a shocking $32 million due to massive spending by pro-Israel groups. And it's all about destroying a member of Congress who dared to challenge Israel & force the release of the Epstein files. politico.com/news/2026/05/1…

The world stands at the cusp of a new order. As President Xi said “The transformation unseen in a century is accelerating across the globe,” and I emphasize that the Iranian nation’s 70-day resistance has accelerated this transformation. The future belongs to the Global South.

My understanding of this speech by King Reza Pahlavi is that SAVAK will take action soon. #KingRezaPahlavi‌ForIran
Reza Pahlavi@PahlaviReza

هم‌میهنان عزیزم، در روزهایی که شما با شجاعت در برابر رژیم اشغالگر ایران ایستاده‌اید، این نظام منفور و منزوی، همچنان به تجاوز به جان و مال مردم ادامه می‌دهد تا سرنگونی حتمی خود را اندکی به تعویق اندازد. در چنین شرایطی، وظیفه خود می‌دانم که تصویر عدالت در فردای ایران را برای کسانی که با جنایتکاران همکاری کنند، روشن‌تر ترسیم کنم. در این راستا، از «کمیته‌ تدوین مقررات عدالت انتقالی ایران» خواستم درباره‌ دو موضوع مهم، نظر مشورتی خود را ارائه کند: نخست، موضوع مسئولیت کیفری افرادی که با ساختارهای سرکوبگر جمهوری اسلامی همکاری می‌کنند؛ و دوم، موضوع مصادره‌ اموال معترضان و خانواده‌های آنان. این کمیته اکنون نخستین نظر مشورتی خود را صادر کرده و پیام آن روشن است: این اقدامات، همکاری‌های ساده یا بی‌اهمیت نیستند؛ بلکه «یاری‌رسانی به جنایت علیه بشریت» محسوب می‌شوند. هیچ مقام، هیچ دستور و هیچ بهانه‌ای نمی‌تواند مسئولیت کیفری فردی را از میان ببرد. بنابراین، هر فردی که آگاهانه و داوطلبانه با ساختارهای سرکوبگر رژیم همکاری کند، چه در داخل و چه در خارج از ایران، باید بداند که در معرض مسئولیت کیفری قرار خواهد گرفت: خواه این همکاری از نوع گزارش‌دهی یا خبرچینی باشد؛ خواه از نوع مشارکت در ایست‌های بازرسی‌ باشد؛ خواه از نوع به‌کارگیری کودکان و نوجوانان در سرکوب معترضان باشد؛ و خواه از نوع تحصیل، انتقال یا خرید و فروش اموالی باشد که در جریان سرکوب از معترضان و خانواده‌های آنان مصادره شده‌ است. از این رو، نه‌تنها افرادی که در صدور دستور، اجرای آن، یا تسهیل این مصادره‌ها نقش دارند در معرض مسئولیت قرار خواهند گرفت، بلکه کسانی که آگاهانه و داوطلبانه به خرید و فروش این اموال می‌پردازند نیز باید پاسخگو باشند. این مسئولیت، استفاده از اموال یا دارایی‌های آنان برای جبران خسارت واردشده به مالکان اصلی را نیز شامل می‌‌شود. بنابراین، به همه‌ کسانی که امروز در صدد همکاری با دستگاه سرکوب رژیم هستند هشدار می‌دهم: پیش از آن‌که دست به اقدامی بزنید که به مردم ایران آسیب جانی، مالی و یا اجتماعی برساند، به آینده‌ خود و خانواده‌تان بیندیشید. به آن روز بیندیشید که ایران آزاد خواهد شد؛ روزی که حقیقت پنهان نخواهد ماند؛ روزی که اسامی آشکار خواهد شد؛ روزی که هیچ متجاوز و جنایتکاری از پاسخ‌گویی در برابر قانون در امان نخواهد ماند. آن روز، ملت ایران حکومتی خواهد داشت که حقوق ایرانیان را محترم می‌دارد و ایران را به سرزمینی آزاد و آباد بدل می‌کند. پاینده ایران، رضا پهلوی

If the Trump regime goes after Iran's power plants and bridges, the Islamic Republic will permanently destroy his proxies in the Persian Gulf and crush the Zionist regime's critical infrastructure immediately. A catastrophic global economic depression will be assured.
Seyed Mohammad Marandi@s_m_marandi

War may be imminent. In case of further military aggression, the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Axis of Resistance will go much further and strike much harder than in the 39-day Epstein War.

So you're funding Hegseth the failed TV host at rates unheard of since 2007, so he can cosplay as Secretary of War in our backyard in Hormuz? You know what's crazier than $39 trillion in debt? Paying a pre-GFC premium to fund a LARP and all you'll get is a brand new GFC.

The Iran Watcher 🇮🇷@TheIranWatcher·
🚨 After Trump and Xi’s latest meeting, the Islamic Republic suddenly looks like a regime watching its last major lifeline slip away. Right after reports came out that China and the U.S. agreed the Strait of Hormuz needed to stay open, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi rushed out and announced the Strait was now “completely open” again. That is not confidence but a regime scrambling in panic as its leverage rapidly collapses. The Islamic Republic spent years acting like China desperately needed Iran. In reality, the relationship was always massively one-sided. U.S.-China trade is still worth over $400 billion annually even after years of tariffs, tensions, and economic rivalry. China-Iran trade is tiny by comparison, even when including shadow oil shipments and sanctions evasion. Iran’s discounted oil is useful to China, but stable economic relations with the U.S. are vastly more important to Beijing. That is the brutal reality Iran’s leadership seems to be crashing into right now. Even the heavily publicized 25-year China-Iran agreement increasingly looks less like a strategic partnership and more like a dependency arrangement where the Islamic Republic became economically beholden to Beijing while receiving far less in return than originally advertised. China gets heavily discounted oil, leverage, and access. Iran gets deeper dependence, sanctions exposure, shrinking alternatives, and an economy increasingly tied to Beijing’s calculations. And when China has to choose between a $400+ billion relationship with the U.S. or a heavily sanctioned Iran selling discounted oil through shadow networks, the answer was always obvious. For decades, the Islamic Republic relied on three big cards: ⚪️ Threatening Hormuz ⚪️ Selling cheap oil to China ⚪️ Using proxy militias and instability as leverage Now all three are weakening at once. The Islamic Republic increasingly looks like a regime that badly overestimated how important it actually was to China.

@tparsi Only point of utter embarrassment is that you dare call yourself as one of us. They were cheering for your employer and their homeland oppressors to get wiped out. Meanwhile, you were probably dancing and celebrating at thousands of protesters getting killed. Oh right Mossad 🙄

A point of utter embarrassment and shame for many Iranians is the manner in which elements of the diaspora danced on the streets in Western capitals as bombs rained on Tehran. It is also a source for a lot of anger among Iranians in Iran who oppose the theocracy but nevertheless did not favor war and who are stunned to see some in the Diaspora being so indifferent to the suffering caused by the war. But there is another aspect that deserves closer scrutiny. These, almost exclusively pro-Shah elements of the Diaspora, did not dance to celebrate the downfall of the regime. They didn't dance because they had won. They simply danced because the war had started, nothing more. As if their goal was neither freedom nor democracy, but simply revenge and the pleasure they took from seeing Iran bombed. Had they danced after the theocracy had fallen (which it hasn't), it would be a bit different. It would be a moment where they could argue that the price was very high, but because the regime is defeated, it was worth it, and, as a result, a cause for celebration. But they didn't wait for the regime to fall. They danced right away. Signalling that the cost was worth it, EVEN IF the regime didn't fall. Because it was always about selfish revenge, not freedom.

The BBC asked me if a US-Iran deal would betray the Iranian people. I pushed back hard: The question assumes that getting bombed helped the Iranian people. Nor has that been true in Ira, Afghanistan etc. On the contrary, if sanctions are lifted, the Iranian people can breathe once more. Over time, Iranian society will grow stronger and enable the Iranian people to do what only they can do: Change Iran in the right direction, from the inside, by themselves, for themselves.

There is no alternative but to accept the rights of the Iranian people as laid out in the 14-point proposal. Any other approach will be completely inconclusive; nothing but one failure after another. The longer they drag their feet, the more American taxpayers will pay for it.
