London, 30 May – The Iran Lobby, a group of Regime puppets in the West, are trying yet again to portray the divides with the Regime’s top leaders as a case of moderates versus hardliners and downplay the role of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in the recent so-called elections.

London, 30 May – In yet another example of the deep divides within the Iranian Regime, the Iranian Judiciary Chief has criticised President Hassan Rouhani for his campaign pledges to free political activists.
On the campaign trail, Rouhani promised that during his second term in office he would free opposition leaders, Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, who were put under house arrest in 2011, following the 2009 Green Movement protests that sprung up in response to the Regime’s election fraud.

London, 29 May – Huda al-Saleh wrote an analysis on Al-Arabiya comparing the Iranian Regime to Qatar. Through his analysis, he found that the two nations have incredibly similar political outlooks, especially with regard to support for terrorism and extremist leaders.
The Iranian Regime supplies money, arms, training and troops to various terrorist cells in the Middle East, including Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis and al-Qaeda under the pretence of helping the “vulnerable”.

London, 27 May – When Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was re-elected for his second term, Western media was quick to portray him as a moderate. Again. This is how he was described during his first term.
However, the reality is much different. He was not a moderate during his first term because he was in office when there was an unprecedented amount of executions being carried out. And Iran’s involvement in conflicts in the Middle East was what earned the country the title of the main exporter of terrorism in the world.
