An “unnamed senior Iranian official” who met Henry Kissinger in 2015 held a PhD in Western Philosophy from the University of Tehran and published several books (mostly in Persian/Farsi) examining Kantian thought, including:

🔹 The Mathematical Method in Kant's Philosophy (روش ریاضی در فلسفه کانت): An exploration of Kantian epistemology and the role of mathematics in his philosophical system.

🔹Metaphysics and the Exact Sciences in Kant's Philosophy (متافیزیک و علوم دقیقه در فلسفه کانت): A study on the relationship between Kant's metaphysical theories and scientific principles.

🔹Intuition and Synthetic A Priori Judgments in Kant's Philosophy (شهود و قضایای تألیفی ماتقدم در فلسفه کانت): An analysis of one of the core concepts in Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason.

🔹Critique and Examination of Descartes’ Epistemology: A work analyzing the foundational principles of Rene Descartes.

He also wrote extensively on other analytical philosophers, including Saul Kripke and David Lewis. 

▪️Beyond pure philosophy, he published essays and reflections on governance and Iranian society: 

His latest book was Reason and Tranquility in Governance (عقل و سکون در حکمرانی): A 2024 publication focusing on political philosophy and statecraft.

Ali Larijani was killed in an Israeli airstrike on the night of March 16–17, 2026, at his daughter’s home in the Pardis district of Tehran, alongside his son Morteza Larijani, his chief of staff Alireza Bayat, and several bodyguards. He is photographed here in his younger days, while he was still in university. Read the excerpt below for the meeting and their discussion in 2015.

The Trump State Department under the leadership of Rubio is laser-focused on creating hysteria against socialism and communism. Ask yourself, “what are they so worried about?” Or is this just a sloppy effort to distract attention from MAGA’s rejection by by the American people?

A spectre is haunting the West – the spectre of communism.

Votes are still being counted, but the South African Communist Party, running for the first time independently of the ANC, has won over 160 seats against all odds, in a campaign with few resources but strong mobilization & sacrifice from its members. Long live @SACP1921

[Party for Socialism and Liberation @pslnational]

Despite being blocked from every mainstream debate, four PSL candidates garnered more than 160,000 votes in the midterm general election, with Frank Lara winning his school board race! This proves that scores of people across the country are ready for change and hungry for a revolutionary socialist future.

Far more important than winning an election, these PSL campaigns won over the hearts and minds of tens of thousands of people from the Bronx to San Mateo County.

[BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom]

The Bronx mobilized to demand accountability for Javits Frimpong, the 15-year-old Ghanaian teen fatally shot on way to school last Thursday.

Frimpong’s father said that he believes his son’s shooting was tied to bullying, and investigators are searching for three teenage boys in connection to the shooting.

Speakers at the rally slammed the continual funding of ICE while critical programs like Medicaid were under threat. Bronx community activists instead demanded more funding for schools and afterschool programs, along with resources put toward health care and ending homelessness to tackle the crisis of gun violence.

[Party for Socialism and Liberation @pslnational]

Across the board, tens of millions went to the polls to politically punish Trump, and they succeeded. But they were also dreaming of peace, justice and good jobs — a dream that the capitalist system will not deliver.

[Party for Socialism and Liberation @pslnational]

🗳️ This Election Day, VOTE SOCIALIST!

Do you live in Ohio, Massachusetts, or the Bronx and want to cast your vote for a working-class candidate who is committed to ending war, ICE terror, and the attacks on working people? Then VOTE SOCIALIST!

Elections are not the final destination. But they provide working class parties like ours the chance to directly contrast our program to that of the capitalist parties and prove how socialism is capable of meeting the scale of problems facing the majority of working people today.

Just two weeks after a an Air Force member died while rappelling during a college football pregame show, a flyover in Seattle nearly turned into a catastrophic crash.

These extravagant militarist displays don’t just serve as imperialist propaganda, they actively threaten the lives of participants and spectators alike.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

The Pentagon Papers.

They tried to keep them secret for a reason.

When their own internal documents were leaked, when the American people got to read what their government actually believed privately about Vietnam, as opposed to what they were saying publicly, what they found was this:

Their own analysts knew they were losing.

Knew the strategy wasn't working.

Knew the body counts were fabricated or meaningless.

Knew the South Vietnamese regime had no legitimacy with its own people.

Knew the war couldn't be won in any meaningful sense.

And they kept going anyway.

Why?

Because stopping meant admitting they had been wrong.

Stopping meant the 30,000 soldiers who had already died had died for nothing.

Stopping meant the story they had told the American public, "we are winning, we must stay, we are defending freedom," was a lie from the beginning.

And admitting all of that was politically impossible.

So they kept sending young men to die in a war their own government secretly knew was unwinnable, because the alternative was political embarrassment.

They sacrificed their own soldiers to save face.

That is who makes the rules of the international order. That is whose judgment you are supposed to defer to. That is whose threats are supposed to make you tremble.

A government that fed its own children into a war it knew was lost because the paperwork involved in admitting defeat was too politically inconvenient.

And they want to talk to you about governance. About accountability. About the "rules-based international order."

Vietnam read the rules of that order and decided to write different ones.

[Greg Levy @GregLevy4Senate]

It’s Election Day, you know what that means: VOTE GREG LEVY FOR US SENATE!

Gaza changed the world, and there’s no going back. Now we all have to make a choice. Artists have to make a choice: to pacify or radicalize? To make soundtrack for the collapse or for the revolution?

Incredible to speak at Macklemore’s Paris show. Free Palestine and free us all!

"NOLAN WELLS DID NOT DROWN!"

Thousands marched in Washington, D.C. on Sunday demanding justice for Nolan Wells. Despite evidence of foul play, no charges have yet been levied against Nolan’s white friends who were present at the time of his death. People across the country continue to take the streets to demand justice and an end to the war on Black America!

[BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom]

Thousands marched in Washington, DC on Sunday for Nolan Wells, joining calls across the US for an impartial federal investigation into his death. The 18-year-old college football player was found dead off the Mississippi coast in July.

Sunday’s “One March, Fifty States” day of action saw marches and prayer gatherings planned in every US state and in London. On the Mississippi Gulf Coast, hundreds marched across the Biloxi–Ocean Springs Bridge toward Wells’ hometown, calling on the Justice Department and FBI to review the case.

Wells disappeared during a Fourth of July boat trip with white friends. His body was found in the water off Horn Island two days later.

In September, a Jackson County grand jury declined to bring charges, saying evidence was consistent with drowning, despite the state autopsy report showing bruising on the back of Wells’s head and noting that no water was found in his lungs. The Justice Department has so far declined to open an investigation.

[Rina Lu🇷🇺 @rinalu_]

One of Hitler's top military planners, accused by Moscow of the deadliest Nazi massacre of a single town, went on to chair NATO's Military Committee.

His name was Adolf Heusinger. During WWII he headed the operations department of the German Army's General Staff and helped plan the invasion of the Soviet Union, after the campaigns against Poland, Norway and France.

In March 1943, Nazi occupation forces massacred some 7,000 civilians in Koryukivka, Soviet Ukraine, burning most of the town to the ground.

After the war Heusinger worked for the Gehlen Organization, the US-backed intelligence network of former Wehrmacht officers, and helped build the new West German army. In 1961 he became chairman of NATO's Military Committee, the alliance's top military post, with an office in the Pentagon.

The Soviet Union identified Heusinger as responsible for the Koryukivka massacre and demanded his extradition. Washington refused, and Heusinger kept the NATO job until 1964. He was never prosecuted for Koryukivka.
