The truth about the Iranian regime’s new president

-

  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...

Iranians across Europe demand no visa for Raisi, voice support for Resistance

-

 By Matin Karim

Freedom-loving Iranians and supporters of the Iranian opposition People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) held rallies in six different European countries, along with Ottawa and Toronto in Canada, condemning the mullahs’ regime ruling Iran, calling on the U.S. administration to deny a visa for Iranian regime President Ebrahim Raisi for next month’s annual United Nations General Assembly, and voiced support for the Iranian Resistance. These rallies were held on Saturday, August 20, in Oslo of Norway, Aarhus of Denmark, Geneva of Switzerland, Gothenburg of Sweden, Hamburg of Germany, and the Hague.



In Oslo, the demonstrators condemned Raisi for his direct role in the summer 1988 massacre of over 30,000 political prisoners, mostly PMOI/MEK members and supporters. The demonstrators are also calling on the U.S. government to deny Raisi a visa as he intends to participate in the upcoming United Nations General Assembly in New York next month, emphasizing that instead he should be arrested and prosecuted for human rights violations and crimes against humanity. These rallies also called on Washington and governments in Europe to end their highly flawed and failed appeasement policy vis-à-vis the mullahs’ regime in Tehran.

In Aarhus, Denmark, the demonstrators, including freedom of loving Iranians and PMOI/MEK supporters, called for the overthrow of the mullahs’ regime by the Iranian people. “Death to Khamenei to and Raisi; damned be Khomeini!” they chanted, in reference to regime Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and his predecessor, Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the mullahs’ regime in Iran.

These demonstrators were holding placards with messages in Farsi supporting the recent protests in the city of Shahrekord of Chaharmahal & Bakhtiari province in southwest Iran where locals have been suffering from severe water shortages and even without any drinking water for two weeks.

In Geneva, another group of freedom-loving Iranians and PMOI/MEK supporters launched an exhibition commemorating the memory of over 30,000 political prisoners executed by the mullahs’ regime in Iran during the summer of 1988. The demonstrators also condemned the mullahs’ regime for their heinous atrocities throughout the past four decades, especially Raisi as he approved the execution of hundreds of Iranians when he was the chief of the regime’s so-called judiciary and now that he is the mullahs’ selected president.

The exhibition also featured many images of victims of the Iranian regime’s executions in prisons and deadly crackdown against peaceful protests, from the November 2019 uprising to this day.

In Gothenburg, Sweden, those attending the gathering hailed Iranian Resistance Leader Massoud Rajavi, and Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian opposition coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). The PMOI/MEK is the cornerstone member of the NCRI coalition.

The demonstrators in Gothenburg also chanted slogans condemning both the regimes of the Shah and the mullahs, supporting a new revolution in Iran to establish freedom, democracy, and human rights in a non-nuclear Iran. Iranians in Gothenburg also voiced strong criticism of the West’s appeasement policy, especially regarding the Iranian regime’s nuclear dossier and the ongoing talks for a new nuclear deal, while vowing to continue supporting the Iranian Resistance in the ongoing struggle for a free Iran.

In Hamburg, supporters of the PMOI/MEK and the NCRI coalition called for an international fact-finding mission to investigate Iran’s 1988 massacre and bring the perpetrators of the mullahs’ regime before justice for their crimes. These Iranians in Hamburg also reemphasized their support for the Iranian opposition PMOI/MEK.

In the Hague, freedom-loving Iranians and sympathizers of the PMOI/MEK gathered in support of the Iranian people’s protests and the Iranian Resistance and condemning the mullahs’ regime.

Similar rallies were also held in the cities of Ottawa and Toronto in Canada on Saturday with PMOI/MEK supporters highlighting the regime’s human rights violations, voicing support for the Iranian Resistance, and criticizing the West’s appeasement policies vis-a-vis the mullahs’ regime ruling Iran.

Iran's Morality Police in New Crackdown on Women

-
Image
  By Struan Stevenson Having learned no lessons from the nationwide uprising that exploded last September following the brutal killing in custody of the young Kurdish girl Mahsa Amini, the Iranian regime’s misogynist morality police are on the move again. Last week, the Tehran Criminal Court sentenced a woman to two months in prison for hijab violations. The judge, Ali Omidi, accused her of “anti-Iranian behavior.” In a more sinister outburst, he also ordered that she should be subjected to compulsory health checks, as her failure to wear the hijab was a clear display of “disease” symptoms that “must be treated.” Such claims are frighteningly reminiscent of judgements in the former Soviet Union, where people who were considered anti-communist were deemed to be insane and were sent for electric shock treatment in psychiatric hospitals.The morality police tracked her down using images from a ‘smart’ CCTV camera. Similar cameras have been installed in public places in towns and cities...

Why Did Iran Regime’s Parliament Hastily Approve the Internet Protection Bill?

-
Image
  Written by   Mehdi Oghbai After months of flip-flop about adopting the so-called “internet protection bill,” the Iranian regime’s parliament hastily approved the generalities of the bill. Unlike its name, this bill will not protect millions of Iranians using the internet and social media platforms but further restricts their individual freedoms. Social media platforms such as Instagram are not just a placeholder of glossy images for millions of Iranians. They use these platforms to earn a living amid the country’s grim economic situation. Iran’s internet speed has significantly slowed down in the last month. Regime officials, fearing a public backlash, denied having approved and implemented the internet protection bill. Yet, the state-run Hamdeli daily on February 22 hinted that “this situation is signal of silent implementation of internet protection bill before its approval.” In an  exclusive report  about this bill on January 17, the Iranian Resistance wrote: “T...

 Written by Aladdin Touran Iran is the victim of successive blackouts and power outages of the national grid. While the country  ranked 12th in the world  last year in terms of electricity generation, people struggle with  frequent  and unannounced blackouts in the heat of summer. The situation has shocked even the ruling regime with cries of “Death to Khamenei” in the east of Tehran following the power outage on July 3rd .   The outgoing Minister of  Energy Ardakanian  of Hassan Rouhani’s government said that the power outage was due to the premature warming of the air and the decrease in rainfall .   Mohammad Hassan  Motavilizadeh, CEO of Tavanir , on April 23 said that  the reduction in the volume of water in dam reservoirs, which reduces the production of hydropower by 40%, as an essential factor in electricity shortages .   Meanwhile, the former  Minister of Energy , w...
