The Growing Problem of US Sanctions Being Bypassed in Order to Do Business With Iran

Iran Focus

London, 5 Nov – Questions regarding the number of dual American and foreign nationals who have been found to be evading the United States sanctions law, and conducting business in Iran, are growing. The Treasury sanctions apply to both U.S. citizens and U.S. residents, but several U.S. persons with dual citizenships who have been found in violation of sanctions have been arrested and tried in recent years.

It has also been reported that individuals and companies illegally bypass U.S. Sanctions by opening businesses in a country that is not listed on the United States Treasury Department’s sanctions list to do business with Iran.

Why Did Obama Bury Evidence About Iran – Al-Qaeda Links?

by Jubin Katiraie

The CIA released a large number of documents earlier this week. The documents were seized during the raid on a compound in Pakistan in May 2011 during which the leader of al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, was killed. The documents included images and computer files and are evidence of links between the terrorist group and Iran.

Iran is known to support numerous terrorist organisations, proxy groups and militias and it appears that al-Qaeda can be added to that list.

Iran Reaffirms That Its Belligerence Goes Beyond Nuclear Ambitions

by Pooya Stone

Earlier this week, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, declared the United States as Iran’s number one enemy. His speech was televised on state TV and he slammed American hostility towards the Islamic Republic, accusing it of bullying.

He ironically accused U.S. President Donald Trump of supporting terrorism in the Middle East.

Khamenei said that Iran will never give in to the pressure coming from the United States with regards to the 2015 nuclear deal.

Iranian Media Make Fake Claims That Regime Is Force for Good

Iran Focus

London, 4 Nov – Iranian state-run media praised the Regime this week for its supposed constructive force in the Middle East and bringing hope to the young people of Iran. They especially lauded President Hassan Rouhani as a ‘moderate’ in the Middle East and North Africa.

Let’s break down why that is wrong.

A destructive force

The Iranian Regime is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism and funds proxy groups across the Middle East, including Hezbollah, Hamas, and Al Qaeda, in order to destabilise the region and depose leaders so that it can take advantage of the power vacuum.

NIAC Caught Lying Again About Iran and Trump

Iran Focus

London, 4 Nov – Yet again, the Iranian Regime’s personal cheerleaders have gotten their facts wrong about Donald Trump and the Iranian Regime.

The National Iranian American Council (NIAC) are specialists in making excuses for past and present crimes of the Iranian Regime and promises that the future will bring change but the change never comes and the lies continue in full.

NIAC research director, Reza Marashi, wrote a piece for Al-Monitor in which he claims that Trump’s latest moves against Iran may have actually aided President Hassan Rouhani.

Iran Focus

London, 4 Nov – The majority of American voters believe that the 2015 nuclear agreement between Iran and six world powers (including the US) needs renegotiation according to an October poll.

When broken down by political party, this amounted to 85% of Republicans, 71% of Independents, and 57% of Democrats in favour of renegotiation.

INTV’s Pledges Drive for Finances Begins, as Iran Cracks Down on Media

It is risky to be a journalist who works for a dissenting news outlet in Iran. Reportedly, arrests and imprisonment of free minded journalists has been escalating in recent years.

In fact, the Iranian regime is known to attack not only the reporters and broadcasters of independent and foreign information, but the recipients, as well. It is illegal to own satellite receiver equipment in Iran, but millions of Iranians use satellite equipment to tune into banned television networks. Equipment that has been confiscated by regime authorities is regularly replaced. Additionally, countless Iranians use virtual proxy networks (VPN) to evade restrictions on their use of the internet to gain information.

Iran Regime Uses Fake News to Smear MEK

Iran Focus

London, 2 Nov – The Iranian Regime is now using fake news to discredit a female activist and the popular people’s resistance as a whole in order to pit the people against each other and divide an activist family.

Mere days after Donald Trump delivered his speech on the Iran deal and the oppression faced by the Iranian people, the Regime’s press published a false story about lifelong activist, Somayeh Mohammadi, defecting from the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI or MEK).
