Senate targets Iran in sweeping measures

http://beforeitsnews.com/watercooler-topics/2017/06/senate-targets-iran-in-sweeping-measures-2447944.html Despite its nature of acting mostly in a polarized manner, the US Senate witnessed Republicans and Democrats joining force to pass a bill of sweeping sanctions inflicting strong punishments against Iran involving a long slate of financial penalties. This bipartisan vote will be demanding major action from the Trump administration, especially after lawmakers in a recent hearing called on Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to designate Iran’s Revolutionary Guards ( IRGC) as a foreign #terrorist organization. These are a number of the issues scheduled to the be discussed in the upcoming July 1 st annual NCRI convention in Paris , famous for gathering over 100,000 Iranians from across the globe alongside hundreds of senior American, European and Middle East personalities supporting NCRI President # Maryam Rajavi and her 10-point plan for the future of #Ira...

ISIS Attacks On Iran Should Make The Regime Reflect

Image
http://dailycaller.com/2017/06/09/isis-attacks-on-iran-should-make-the-regime-reflect/ At a time when #Iran is engulfed in a conglomerate of domestic and international crises, the regime witnessed two unexpected attacks by ISIS against its godfather in Tehran, marking the first such attack by the terror group on Iranian soil. Parallel to denunciations from across the globe, the Iranian opposition National Council of Resistance of Iran condemned the attack and warned of Tehran taking advantage of such a development. NCRI President Maryam Rajavi strongly condemned the loss of innocent lives under any pretext. Strangely, all signs indicate Iran actually welcomed this incident. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei outrageously described this attack, that according to state media left 17 killed and dozens of others injured, merely as “playing with firecrackers.” Maybe he witnessed a potential in this turn of events to cloak the dilemmas and crises his entire apparatus is f...

Regime Change Appears Increasingly Attainable in Iran

Image
http://www.cnsnews.com/commentary/ken-blackwell/regime-change-appears-increasingly-attainable-iran Thirty years after President Reagan seized upon an historic opportunity to bring down the Iron Curtain, there are growing indications that President Trump can make similarly historic strides in the conflict between the U.S. and the new Evil of our time: Islamic extremism.  President Obama had insisted the Deal would prompt Tehran to moderate its behavior, but since the nuclear deal, Iran’s regime has only become more belligerent and more prone to human rights abuses, both within its own territory and across the Middle East.  For years the level of opposition support inside of Iran was an issue of dispute. It has been true that the key movement of the coalition, the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran ( #POMI/MEK ) has witnessed the brunt of the regime’s suppression and some 100,000 of its activists have been executed over the years. The Trump administrat...

ANALYSIS: Is Iran plunging the Middle East into another war?

https://english.alarabiya.net/en/perspective/features/2017/06/26/ANALYSIS-Is-Iran-plunging-the-Middle-East-into-another-war-.html The days of ISIS are numbered and voices are heard about the entire region being forced into a far more disastrous conflict. Various parties, mainly the US and Iran, have begun jostling, seeking to inject their influence onto what the future holds for #Syria. As Iran has also wreaked havoc in #Iraq and #Yemen , concerns are rallying on Tehran going the distance to pull the US full-scale into the Syria inferno. Such a mentality results from misunderstanding the nature of what is known as the Iranian regime. Escalating tensions After establishing a foothold in the strategic town of al-Tanf near the Iraq-Jordan-Syria border, US forces designated a buffer zone to provide protection for their own troops and resources, alongside their allies of anti-Assad opposition rebels. 1) On three different incidents #Iran -backed militias have mad...

Trump is right to focus on Iran's support of terrorism

Image
http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/oped/bs-ed-op-0626-iran-terrorism-20170623-story.html espite the criticism directed at the Trump White House, the administration is to be commended for important changes in U.S. policy toward Iran since taking office. The Trump administration has made great strides in shifting from the conciliatory gestures of the Obama years to a much firmer stance that acknowledges American intolerance for violent extremism, human rights violations and the support of terrorism. Leading administration figures have repeatedly taken to the airwaves to broadcast this message and carried it with them on official trips abroad. Today the messaging is resonating with officials from both parties and in elite policy circles.  #Maryam Rajavi , the president of the National Council of Resistance of #Iran (NCRI), highlighted the regime’s ambition in a statement dated June 7, which noted that the Iranian supreme leader seems to be recognized as a “Ca...

INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY MUST SUPPORT MEK/PMOI IN THE HEART OF THE IRANIAN RESISTANCE

http://irannewsupdate.com/news/iranian-opposition/3893-international-community-must-support-mek-pmoi-in-the-heart-of-the-iranian-resistance.html INU - There are many around the world who are pondering what the correct diplomatic response to the Iranian Regime should be and even those at those in charge of foreign policy aren’t entirely sure, given Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson’s recent comment that the US’s Iran policy is “under development.” Tillerson said: “It’s not yet been delivered to the president, but I would tell you that we certainly recognize Iran’s continued destabilizing presence in the region, their payment of foreign fighters, their export of militia forces in Syria, in Iraq, in Yemen, their support for Hezbollah. And we are taking action to respond to Iran’s hegemony. Additional sanctions actions have been put in place against individuals and others.” He continued: “We continually review the merits both from the standpoint of diplomatic but also internat...

Iran's triangle of fear

Image
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/06/irans_triangle_of_fear.html There is a Persian proverb saying those fearing the dark scream to overcome their fears.  Iran, considering its domestic and foreign dilemmas, resembles that very individual who is afraid of the dark and is screaming to overcome its fears. On Wednesday, June 7, Iran was  attacked by terrorists  in a twin assault that ISIS claimed responsibility for, targeting the parliament and the tomb of the regime's founder.  In contrast to others victimized by terrorism, Tehran actually welcomed this attack and portrays itself as the victim. Iran was under intense pressure from an international coalition against its measures in the Middle East and needed an escape route.  Tehran sought to cloak the reality of being the central banker of international terrorism.  The position taken by U.S. president Donald Trump and a recent  Senate resolution  became impassable hurdles. ...

Regime Change in Iran Appears Increasingly Attainable

https://patriotpost.us/opinion/49841 Thirty years after President Reagan seized upon an historic opportunity to bring down the Iron Curtain, there are growing indications that President Trump can make similarly historic strides in the conflict between the U.S. and the new evil of our time: Islamic extremism. In its first five months, President Trump’s presidency has witnessed dramatic shifts from the policies normalized by the Obama administration. Few are as significant or wide-ranging as the changes in American dealings with the Islamic Republic of #Iran .   The new attitude enjoys rare bipartisan support in Congress, and with good cause. The conciliatory policy of Trump’s predecessor resulted in an ineffectual nuclear agreement and tens of billions of dollars in sanctions relief for a regime that remains the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism. President Obama had insisted the deal would prompt Tehran to moderate it behavior, but since the nuclear deal, Iran’s re...

IRAN'S MISSILE ACCELERATION ACTIVITY REVEALED BY IRANIAN OPPOSITION'S NETWORK OF MEK

http://irannewsupdate.com/news/nuclear/3896-iran-s-missile-acceleration-activity-revealed-by-iranian-opposition-s-network-of-mek.html INU - On Tuesday, a   press conference   was held in Washington DC by the US representative office of the National Council of Resistance of #Iran (NCRI) where it was revealed that on orders of Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, Tehran has accelerated its missile activities and tests since the Iran Nuclear Deal, known formally as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action of JCPOA. Based on detailed intelligence obtained by the Iranian opposition group, the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) from inside Iran — specifically reports obtained from the Defense Ministry and the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) — Khamenei has tasked the IRGC’s Aerospace Force with executing this mandate. For a long time the Iranian opposition has established itself as one of the main sources for exposing secret aspects of Iran’s nuclear ...
