Iran Focus

London, 18 Jan – At the beginning of 2018, Citing Iran’s “state television”, AFP reported that while making a clear allusion to the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), Rouhani told President Macron, “We criticize the fact that a group has a base in France and acts against the Iranian people and encourages violence. We expect the French government to act against this terrorist group “.

These remarks reflected above all the anxiety of the mullahs’ regime in the face of the expansion of the uprising against the religious dictatorship and the growing popularity of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK).and the Iranian Resistance. Rouhani accused the MEK of violence, while the European Union, its member countries, as well as the United States, strongly criticized the Iranian regime for the repression of demonstrations, killing and seriously injuring many people and President Macron has expressed concern on the death of the protestors.

London, 17 Jan – A leaked United Nations report states that the ballistic missiles fired by the terrorist Houthis in Yemen were indeed made by Iran, which may give the US additional reasons to crack down on Iran and pull out of the 2015 nuclear deal.

The weapons fragments inspected by the UN appear to include debris from a ballistic missile attack on Saudi Arabia in November, which was fired by the Houthis.

The report appears to confirm the US’s long-held suspicions that the Iranian Regime has breached two UN resolutions about the launching of ballistic missiles (which enshrines the nuclear deal) and supplying weapons to the Houthis.

Human Rights Are Systematically Ignored by Iran Regime

Iran Focus

London, 17 Jan – Human rights abuses are systematic under the repressive Iranian regime, with even the right to life being routinely ignored.

As a result, the so-called justice system often executes people for crimes (sometimes minor offences or made up crimes) based on circumstantial evidence or confessions extracted through torture.

In December, for example, a 22-year-old prisoner was executed in Mashhad Central Prison for murder, but there is little chance that he received a fair trial with access to legal representation. Another two people were hanged in front of a judge in a retribution killing.

London, 16 Jan – Since late December, the streets of Iran have been filled with tens of thousands of protesters demanding an end to the clerical regime.

At least 50 have been killed and 8,000 imprisoned so far, while the Regime has brought back its mercenaries and terrorist proxies from Syria, where they fought on behalf of Bashar Assad, to quell the protests.

So why is the West, as a whole, reluctant to comment on this clear abuse of human rights?

Simply, they’re more concerned with preserving the Iran nuclear deal and prefer to appease the Regime rather than criticise them over human rights violations.

How the Iranian Regime Could Be Taken Down With a Cold War Policy

Iran Focus

London, 16 Jan – The Iranian people have once again taken to the streets of Iran to protest against the malign Regime. It’s the biggest protest since 2009 and possibly even since the start of the Regime itself.

The people are protesting over corruption at every level of government, widespread economic problems, and many other things besides. Simply, they want an end to the Regime.

Many promised that the 2015 Iran nuclear deal would improve the Iranian economy by removing sanctions and releasing frozen funds. However, the lifting of sanctions and the release of assets couldn’t do much to help the economy when the Iranian Regime was content to funnel the money into their own pockets or use it to fund malign projects abroad.

People of Iran’s Economic Suffering a Result of a Corrupt Political System

Iran Focus

London, 15 Jan – The people of Iran have been protesting and participating in anti-government demonstrations for several weeks now. The main reason behind this is because of the economic crisis the country is experiencing. The people are bearing the brunt of a huge rise in prices and a very worrying economic future; all while watching the nation’s wealth be plundered on conflicts abroad.

Rouhani’s government, during the recent budget, cut back on subsidies at the lower end of the economy scale and this has hit middle and lower-class Iranians. This had had a huge economic impact on food and fuel.
