The truth about the Iranian regime’s new president

Image
  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.

He struck another deal with the mullahs’ regime while he had earlier expressed concern over Tehran’s nuclear activities. “I am increasingly concerned that issues with unannounced sites remain unresolved and that Iran needs to resolve them as soon as possible,”  Grossi ...

 Written by Mahmoud Hakamian The International Atomic Energy Agency recently presented its quarterly  report  on the Iranian regime’s nuclear activities, and it is now clearer than ever that the international community must adopt a new strategy for confronting Tehran’s provocations and halting its progress toward a nuclear weapon. Reacting to the IAEA report, the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned Wednesday that time was running out for Iran to return to the nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). “I’m not going to put a date on it but we are getting closer to the point at which a strict return to compliance with the JCPOA does not reproduce the benefits that that agreement achieved,” Blinken told reporters in Germany. Yet, the US and the European  signatories  of the deal have refused to change the weak attitude toward the regime despite Tehran’s provocative actions. In absence of such a change, the current...
