IRAN’S HORROR: #IRGC Regime massacred over 30,000 young protesters in January 2026 bloodbath — thousands gunned down in days for demanding freedom.
After 1,639 executions in 2025 (highest since 1989), they’re now hanging teens arrested in the massacres everyday.
This is war on the young. A crime against humanity.
Silence = complicity

@LauraLoomer Persian civilization has lived in the hearts and minds of 90 million Iranians for over 3,000 years — long before the Islamic Republic. Do you really want total war on an entire ancient people and their heritage?
Bombing power grids, water systems, food production, banks, pipelines, and every mosque isn’t victory — it’s mass civilian suffering, famine, disease, and refugee chaos. It would harden support for the regime, not topple it (see Iraq’s aftermath).
Iranians despise the theocratic dictatorship. Hit the regime’s military, nuclear sites, IRGC, terror proxies, leadership, and oil revenue — without collapsing civilian life or erasing pre-Islamic Persian roots.
Destroy the oppressors’ tools, not Iran’s future or its civilizational soul. Indiscriminate destruction turns potential allies into enemies and damages America’s moral standing.

Foreign-born inventors produce 23% of US patents. 22% of those published in 2025 had an Iranian co-inventor, from a group that makes up just 0.9% of US immigrants.

I first noticed this pattern at NeurIPS 2025: 15.4% of papers had an Iranian co-author, more than any other immigrant group. So I ran the numbers on 23,682 US patents too. 1,216 had at least one Iranian co-inventor. Same answer.

Two independent datasets. This is not a coincidence, this is a pattern.

Iranians are among the most productive contributors to American innovation, in the lab and in the patent office. They are not a footnote. They are a driving force.

Meanwhile, the USCIS pause keeps hundreds of these same inventors, researchers, and engineers frozen in limbo, unable to work or plan their lives. The US already lost its #1 spot in AI research to China before the pause was even in place. If it holds, things will only get worse.

These are law-abiding, tax-paying people who chose America and are helping make it stronger. In a global innovation race we are actively losing, this is the last group America should be sidelining.

This is a self-inflicted wound. Lift the pause.

Take the correct course for Iran’s people! History will judge. Order the IRGC to lay down arms NOW. Protect civilian infrastructure, power plants & oil facilities. End the suffering and free Iran from oppression!

@realDonaldTrump As an Iranian-American in California : Direct US forces to precisely defeat the IRGC terrorists & regime military. Spare Iran’s civilian infrastructure, power plants & oil facilities! Kharg strikes show the way. Hit oppressors, not innocents. Thank you! #IRGC #MaximumPressure #FreeIran‌

Nowruz Mobarak, 🌱🌸
بهار دل‌ها مبارک

dear Iranians — from the bustling streets of Tehran to the sunlit homes of the diaspora across every continent!
As the first rays of spring kiss the earth and the Haft-Sin table blooms with life, Nowruz whispers its eternal promise: every winter ends, every darkness yields to light. You, the children of Cyrus and Ferdowsi, the keepers of an unbroken flame that has burned for 2,500 years, carry within you the same resilient spirit that turns deserts into gardens and sorrow into song.
This year, let us rise together — not just in celebration, but in quiet, unbreakable hope. For the mothers who light the fire of Chaharshanbe Suri, for the youth dreaming bigger than borders, for the elders who still sing the old poems under their breath: may your hearts be light, your steps sure, and your future as bright as the sunrise over Mount Damavand.
You are not alone. Whether you stand on Iranian soil or carry Iran in your soul across oceans, you are part of something ancient, beautiful, and unstoppable. Let this Nowruz be the turning point — the moment we plant new seeds of courage, unity, and joy.
May your table overflow with love, your year overflow with miracles, and your spirit forever remain free.
Nowruz-e Shoma Mobarak!
Eid-e Nowruz Mobarak!!
With all my heart and endless admiration for your strength,
Mahnaz Milani #FreeIran‌

@PahlaviReza is right: Iran’s greatest asset is our people and #humancapital — not oil.
Despite 47 years of repression, we still produce among the world’s highest STEM graduates per capita. Our youth are brilliant, resilient, and entrepreneurial.
The Iranian diaspora supercharges this talent: in Silicon Valley alone we power Nvidia, Google, Apple, Tesla and more — a ready-made network of expertise and capital worth hundreds of billions, eager to return and invest the day Iran is free.
This is why Iran will never become Libya or Syria. We share a deep national identity, an educated middle class, the proven Woman-Life-Freedom movement, and your clear, peaceful transition plan for secular democracy.
With an orderly handover, our human capital will ignite an economic renaissance.
Proudly standing with your vision for a free, prosperous Iran. 🇮🇷 #RezaPahlavi #FreeIran

@MahdiBaladi @grok what’s this video?

[Mahnaz Milani @DancingTheFlame]

@TIME The only solution to end this madness and tyranny is to end the Islamic republic and free the Iranian people under a secular democratic government

@FT Obviously clueless, read some history and get educated

@PahlaviReza We, hundreds from Silicon Valley & Big Tech (Google, Apple, Meta, Nvidia, Tesla+), stand with Reza Pahlavi’s transition plan for a free, democratic Iran. Time for change—Iran rises! #PahlaviForIran #FreeIran

The evidence is clear, this is not a Tomahawk

Iran alleged that an American Tomahawk Cruise Missile hit a school (buried in an IRGC compound) in southern Iran, killing 165 people.

Analysis of a newly released video tells a different story.

ANALYSIS:
A-I analysis confirms the wings of the munition in question sit about 40%-45% down the body of the munition. On a Tomahawk, the wings sit roughly 49%-50% down the body of the munition.

The wing to body ratio of the munition in question matches an Iranian Kh-55–derived Land Attack Cruise Missile.

Further, the video shows the munition in a steep dive angle for the final attack phase. This places the attack angle at approximately 70%, which is the max attack angle for a Tomahawk.

The attack angle does not match the KH-55. That angle maxes out at about 55 degrees. So what would have caused this?

CONCLUSION:
The wing positioning alone makes the munition impossible to be a Tomahawk. The attack angle is at the max of the Tomahawk's capabilities. The typical attack angle for a Tomahawk is much lower than 70 degrees. The typical angle is between 20-45 degrees.

This is due to the flight pattern of Tomahawks. They fly very low horizontally to the ground, often only 50-100 meters AGL to avoid detection and interception. In order to achieve that attack angle, the missile would have had to gain altitude several kilometers away, this would leave it vulnerable for interception. This is highly unlikely on the first day of US attacks.

So what could have caused this?
Simply put, GPS jamming of an Iranian KH-55. The USA and Israel were, and continue to actively jam the Iranian airspace.

If the KH-55's signal was jammed, this could result in an uncontrollable dive. Think of GPS jamming more like disorienting the missile.

On 03/07 President Trump stated:
“No, in my opinion, based on what I’ve seen, that was done by Iran.”

Today, I concur with the President.
