Iran regime’s defiance increases tensions with Israel

  By Dr. Majid Rafizadeh Rising tensions between the Iranian regime and Israel have the potential to spiral into a wider conflict if not adequately addressed. There are several reasons for the heightened tensions. First of all, although the Iranian regime attempts to distract attention from the direct involvement of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in Syria, Tehran continues to increase its military influence there and use its proxies against Israeli targets. Israel last month carried out an airstrike in Syria on a location where Iranian officials were meeting. Iranian leaders were reportedly meeting to discuss developments regarding their country’s drone and ballistic missile capabilities in Syria. The attack occurred on the same day that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed the Iranian government for an attack on a vessel owned by an Israeli in the Arabian Gulf. He said: “Last week, Iran attacked an oil tanker … and harmed the international freedom of navigation....

Iranian Regime’s Desperate Reaction to Torching Qassem Soleimani’s Statue

-

 Written by Mehdi Oghbai

On January 6, simultaneous with the second anniversary of Qassem Soleimani’s elimination, the Resistance Units torched his statue in Shahr-e Kord in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province. Terrified of the daring action, Mohammad Ali Nekonam, the representative of the Iranian regime’s supreme leader in Shahr-e Kord, issued a statement on Thursday, according to the state-run ISNA News Agency.



“This crime happened at night, just like the crime that happened at night in Baghdad’s airport at the height of the [enemy’s] cowardly,” Nekonam said, brazenly claiming that this action “would increase Haj Qassem’s popularity among people.”

“In a brazen act, the statue of Lt. Gen. Haj Qassem Soleimani, unveiled yesterday morning, January 5, in the presence of officials in the Province in Hazrat Qamarbani Hashem Square in Shahrekord, was set on blaze last night by unidentified individuals,” the semi-official News Agency ISNA reported today.

Soleimani, the notorious commander of the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) terrorist Quds Force, was killed in a drone strike on January 3, 2020. His critical role in the violent crackdown on uprisings in Iran notwithstanding, Soleimani did his utmost to prop up Bashar al-Assad’s murderous regime, notably the Ghouta chemical attack in 2013 that resulted in hundreds of deaths, including children. His actions earned him the nickname of “child killer.”

Following his death, the Iranian regime and its apologists attempted to portray Soleimani as a “national hero” and “the commander of hearts.”

These bogus claims were soon debunked by people who tore down or torched his posters and statues across Iran during the major Iran protests in January 2020and in 2021.

Thursday’s action reflects the people’s disdain toward the terrorist regime represented by criminals like Soleimani and the resilience and capabilities of the activists of the organized opposition inside Iran.

  By Shahriar kia Footages from Iran on Wednesday show the regime’s police humiliating youths on the street. Under the pretext of fighting crime and thugs, this inhumane measure is another desperate attempt to intimidate the public.   The regime calls defiant youths “thugs” to tarnish their image, w hile the youths  continue targeting the regime’s repressive centers. Therefore, the regime justifies its oppressive measures against defiant youths.     The real “thugs , ” who killed  1500 peaceful protesters  during the major  Iran protests  in November ,  are officially protected and wear uniforms of either the  Revolutionary Guards (IRGC)  or  p olice. Also, organized gangs affiliated with the regime freely circulate in cities with knives and terrorize the public and extort money from people. All the while, the mullahs’ regime arrests, amputates hands or executes those poor people  who are  forced to steal to...

By Sedighe Shahrokhi In a meeting with the head of the regime’s State Security Force (SSF) in Isfahan, central Iran, on Friday, Yousef Tabatabai, Isfahan’s Friday prayers leader and supreme leader Ali Khamenei’s representative, threatened women, paving the way for further oppression. “We should make the society unsafe for the few (mal-veiling women) and not allow them to break the norms on the streets and parks easily… The SSF should be given more authority in dealing with those breaking the law and the norms. We should not be afraid of any hostile action in dealing with the violators,” he said. One of the victims of the 2014 acid attacks in Isfahan These remarks once again show the regime’s misogynous nature. Earlier in 2014, Tabatabai’s statement against so-called “mal-veiled” women resulted in the regime’s thugs attacking young Iranian women and splashing acid on their faces. In a similar development, Abolghasem Yaghoubi, the Friday prayers leader and Khamenei’s representative in No...
