🇺🇸🇱🇧 Trump tells Axios he "likes Lebanon" and thinks the country can "make a comeback." Coming from a president who just told Netanyahu to stop flattening buildings, the tone shift is real. Whether it translates into policy is the only thing that matters now.

❌ Mehdi Taj, a former IRGC commander and head of Iran’s football federation, was humiliated! He got a temporary visa, packed his bags, traveled overland to Turkey, then sat through a 15-hour flight to Canada - only to have his entry rejected. This is the kind of humiliation IRGC officials should face abroad. They and their families should not be allowed into Western countries.

Denying the Nakba is as disgusting as denying the Holocaust.




#Iran: Statement by the Spokesperson The current pace of executions in Iran is appalling. The EU has a firm and principled opposition to the use of capital punishment in all cases and in all circumstances. link.europa.eu/9dDVyR

Reza Shah hated Islam so much that he named his son Mohammad Reza 😭

🇮🇷🇺🇳 As the world watches the negotiations and the blockade, the UN says Iran has executed at least 21 people and arrested over 4,000 since the war began. 9 executed for protesting, 10 for alleged membership in opposition groups, 2 for espionage, with thousands more forcibly disappeared or tortured. UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk: "I am appalled that the rights of the Iranian people continue to be stripped from them in harsh and brutal ways.” Source: CNN



پیام برادرم #منوچهر_بختیاری از زندان هرمزگان خطاب به شاهزاده رضا پهلوی حال که جمهوری اسلامی در ضعیف ترین حالت خود به سر می برد ، بهترین زمان برای سرنگونی رژیم است . برای آزادی نمی شود روی بیگانه حساب باز کرد ، بیگانه ای که یک روز تمدن این مردم را تهدید به نابودی می کند و روز دیگر با قاتلان همان مردم پشت میز مذاکره می نشیند . ما برای آزادی ، نمی توانیم روی بیگانه حساب کنیم ، ما فقط روی خودمان حساب می کنیم . همچنان که به مردم وعده دادید ، وارد عمل شوید و برای سرنگونی رژیم اقدام کنید . نمی شود هر بار مردم به صحنه بیایند ، گلوله بخورند ، زندانی شوند ، شکنجه شوند ، اعدام شوند و در آخر فقط پیکر خونین فرزندان بر دست مادران این سرزمین بماند . شما گفتید اگر امروز نه پس چه زمانی ؟ اگر ما نه پس چه کسی ؟ امروز وقت عمل است ؛ @PahlaviReza

EXCLUSIVE: Secretary of State Marco Rubio exposes the issues within Iran’s power structure and how it's preventing progress on peace in the Middle East: “Unfortunately, the hardliners with an apocalyptic vision of the future have the ultimate power in that country.” "Now that you have a supreme leader whose ability is still untested, whose access is questionable, who has not been seen visibly, publicly—has not spoken. We have not heard his voice." @TreyYingst



War in Gaza

Iranian monarchists are on another level of foolishness.
