By Sadegh Pashm-Foroush The day after the announcement of the results of Iran’s sham presidential election, Iranian regime supreme leader Ali Khamenei summoned the remaining members of the government of former regime president Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash on May 19. In his remarks to them—indirectly addressing new regime president Massoud Pezeshkian—he warned him and reminded him of the “model” of the president in the regime. The supreme leader repeatedly mentioned Raisi and said, “He is truly a model; we must all learn from him.” He then reiterated the concept of “heartfelt belief and practical commitment” to the regime, which Pezeshkian, like all the election candidates, had committed to. Khamenei stated, “Dear Raisi demonstrated as a model that one can possess these mental, heartfelt, and practical qualities as the president of a country and follow them in practice.” Of course, before the sham election, Pezeshkian repeatedly stated that he would continue Raisi...

Iran: Member of Regime’s Parliamentary Commission on Nuclear Agreement:
“Arak Reactor Gave Us 9 KG of Plutonium Annually, Enough for a Bomb”
In an unprecedented acknowledgment, cleric, Mahmoud Nabaviyan, a member of the Special Commission for the Investigation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA) and a member of the board of the Article-90 Commission of the regime parliament, said that the main purpose of Arak Reactor was to supply enough plutonium that could build an atomic bomb. In an interview with regime television, he said, on Sunday, October 17, “How important is the (Arak) reactor to us? It produced 9 kilograms of plutonium a year, enough for a bomb…Depending on their technology, countries can produce a bomb with three to seven kilograms of plutonium. Having this reactor would send a message to Israel that if you make a mistake against Iran, we have what’s needed (to retaliate)!” He added, “30 tons of fuel is injected into the Bushehr reactor annually, and keeping the fuel waste in Iran sends a warning to Israel and the enemies … With a technology called reprocessing, you can (produce) plutonium from this fuel-waste. Plutonium means warning the enemy not to make any mistakes. It is the coefficient of security of the nation.” During his interview, he repeatedly emphasized Khamenei’s fictitious and ridiculous fatwa stating that the atomic bomb was forbidden, which was clearly made for foreign consumption.
According to ISNA news agency, Ali Akbar Salehi, the former head of the regime’s Atomic Energy Organization told the State TV, on January 23, 2019, “I purchased similar pipes for the Arak reactor fuel tank, and only one person in the country, the highest-ranking official in the system, knew about it. We took out the pipes and filled them with cement, but now we had the replacement pipes … The Supreme Leader did not allow the nuclear industry to halt because of the Nuclear Agreement (JCPoA), and our exploration and extraction are continuing as strongly as before.”
Nabavian’s remarks once again reveal the regime’s true intentions for its nuclear program and show that from the beginning nuclear projects had no purpose other than to acquire an atomic bomb. As the Iranian Resistance has repeatedly stated, reinstating six Security Council resolutions, completely halting enrichment, and anywhere, anytime inspections are imperative in preventing the Iranian regime from acquiring the atomic bomb.
The latest revelations by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) about the Iranian regime’s dangerous attempts to disrupt international maritime activity should serve as a wake-up call for Western governments. Tehran has significantly expanded its maritime terrorism using foreign mercenaries from the Middle East and Africa, especially in Yemen. This shouldn’t come as a complete surprise. The economy is tanking, and the regime is facing a multitude of irremediable social, political, and economic crises at home and is unable to stem the tide of expanding and continuing protests virtually by every sector of the Iranian society. Since December 2017, there have been eight major nationwide uprisings, the common theme of which has been the popular demand to overthrow the regime. Furthermore, the elimination of the Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani in January 2020 damaged the regime’s influence in regional hotspots like Syria and Iraq. Regrettably...

Written by Sedighe Shahrokhi Every day, when the guards opened the solitary cells, they started beating the MEK’s prisoners,” Rahman Darkeshideh testified on Thursday, January 27, during the trial of Hamid Noury , deputy prosecutor in the notorious Gohardasht Prison (west of Tehran), where thousands of political prisoners were massacred in 1988. Noury, an Iranian prison official, was apprehended in 2019 in Sweden. His trial began in 2020, and dozens of survivors of the 1988 genocide shared harrowing accounts of those dreadful days, mainly in Gohardahst prison, where Noury worked. Based on a fatwa by the regime’s founder Ruhollah Khomeini, the so-called “Death Commissions” sent thousands of prisoners to gallows after the victims refused to disavow their allegiance to Iran’s leading opposition group, Mujahedin-e Khalq (PMOI/MEK). The Iranian regime’s president, Ebrahim Raisi, was a member of Tehran’s “Death Commission.” Darkeshideh, Noury’s neighbor and a Ma...
