U.S. officials blame Iran for rising fuel prices, as if the public's memory is short enough to forget who actually initiated the war of aggression, and whose actions created the crisis that led to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the disruption of commercial shipping.
This isn't a new trick, though. In 1939, Hitler similarly framed his invasion of Poland as a defensive action.
When the instigator of an unlawful 'war of choice' blames the victim for the fallout, should this be viewed as 'strategic brilliance', or is it simply a textbook symptom of "The March of Folly"?!

ورود وزیر امور خارجه به نیویورک جهت شرکت در اجلاس سالانه مجمع عمومی سازمان ملل متحد
سيد عباس عراقچی وزیر امور خارجه جمهوری اسلامی ایران، بعد از ظهر امروز دوشنبه در راس یک هیات دیپلماتیک برای مشارکت در مباحث اجلاس سالانه مجمع عمومی سازمان ملل متحد وارد نیویورک مقر سازمان ملل متحد شد.
وزیر امور خارجه کشورمان علاوه بر شرکت در مباحث مختلف دستور کار مجمع عمومی سازمان ملل و تبیین مواضع جمهوری اسلامی ایران، با تعداد زیادی از مقامها و وزرای امور خارجه شرکتکننده در اجلاس گفتگو و رایزنی خواهد کرد.
هشتاد و یکمین اجلاس سالانه مجمع عمومی سازمان ملل متحد با شعار «احیای اعتماد» به سازمان ملل، از روز سهشنبه با سخنرانی سران کشورها آغاز خواهد شد.
When an administration slams its doors shut - even on American journalists it happens to dislike - and bars foreign reporters, including the Iranian president’s media team, whose voices it would rather silence, it is not managing access; it is trying to hide the truth and further its misinformation campaign by trampling on the right of access to information.
A nation that once took pride in tearing down the Iron Curtain now finds itself standing behind one of its own.
The Israel lobby is getting less shy about its grip on U.S. policy toward Iran. In Miriam Adelson’s publication, the Lobby's loudspeaker says U.S. policy must ensure America pays a price for any slight against Israel.
High time for Washington to break free from these shackles.
It’s Schrödinger: the empire is in the SOH cabinet with falling plates, projecting hegemony but fully exposed, trying to suffocate Iran without blowback (impossible).
This endgame cannot be modeled. It will be opened, and Iran's hand is already on the lever.
The White House spokesperson has issued a lengthy list of accusations against Iran. With striking precision, most of these charges describe the very actions the United States itself has initiated, perpetrated, or supported.
This flight from reality and act of projection should come as no surprise:
“The wicked flee when no one is pursuing.”
— Proverbs 28:1
1.5mn Algerians were slaughtered by France in their War of Independence. Less than 1/10 of them have been recorded by Paris, which refuses any apology for its colonial crimes.
Stop your crocodile tears @jnbarrot. Your silence when the U.S. massacred our schoolkids said it all.
Dr. Mohammad Fathali, Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to India, visited the BRICS Bazaar in New Delhi, where he met and held discussions with two Iranian artists working in the field of handicrafts who were participating in the event.
Washington still seems to assume that nations have neither memory nor the capacity for critical thought. It treats the world as if it were *Pluribus*: a hive in which minds are expected to switch off, eyes lock onto Washington’s lips, and its narrative is swallowed whole.
On one side stands a brutal economic war, deliberately designed to inflict maximum pain and suffering on every Iranian citizen. On the other stands the theatrical announcement of measures to stop Iranian officials from supposedly shopping at an American wholesale club.
They look past the sanctioning of an entire nation’s livelihood, then issue solemn statements about the sanctioning of a store membership card.
The propaganda is so crude and threadbare that it exposes the naivety of the mindset that launched an unlawful war of choice against the Nation of Iran, and helped deliver the United States to the embarrassing position it occupies today.
"Germany and the United States supply 99% of the weapons exported to Israel... They could stop this conflict overnight if they stopped the weapons killing Palestinians." - UN Special Rapporteur Prof. Ben Saul
زبان و ادب پارسی، گنجی است نهاده در خزانه فرهنگ بشری و پلی است که قرن هاست جانهای دور را به یکدیگر نزدیک کرده و میان ملتها رشته پیوند زده است.
۲۷ شهریور، روز بزرگداشت استاد شهریار و روز شعر و ادب پارسی، مجالی است برای درنگ در این میراث گرانبها.
استاد شهریار زبان پارسی را خانه خویش یافت و شعر را آیینهای کرد برای دیدن آنچه در هیاهوی روزگار از چشم ما پنهان می ماند. اما سهم او در این میان تنها خدمت به زبان و ادب پارسی نبود که یادآوری پاسداشت مامن اصلی این زبان نیز بود:
خاک لیلای وطن را جان شیرین بر سر افشان
خسروان عشق درس عبرت از مجنون گرفتند
The unipolar order in which one side extracts concessions through force and coercion has ended. China and Russia’s vetoes rejected the political abuse of the Security Council and reaffirmed the rule of law. We must defend multilateralism; unilateralism serves no one’s interests.
کیست گردون تا تواند هم نبرد ما شدن؟
زهره شیران فشاند آب در میدان ما

در اسفندماه ۱۴۰۴ پرتو نور الهی بر تقدیر اینملت تابید و حضرت حق، مردمان این کهندیار را برای صیانت از کیان #ایران در برابر شبیخون اهریمن، مبعوث و دلهای آنان را با نور ایمان به هم نزدیکتر کرد.
۲۰۰ شب از آغاز حماسه تاریخی حضور میگذرد و مردم ایران همچنان خستگیناپذیر و مصمم برای حراست از مجد و عظمت میهن ایستادهاند.
درود بر ملت ایران که مشعلدار مسیر عزت و آزادگی در روزگار غوغا و ذلتاند.
Successful consultations in China with our partners. Iran values strategic partnership we have built over time.
Today's decisions will decide future strategic balance in the region, with immeasurable knock-on effects.
4 principles for peace outlined by President Xi are key.
Straits Taylor Rule:
i = r* + π* + 1.5(π−π*) + 0.5(y−y*) + α(SOH−SOH*) + β(BEM−BEM*), α,β > 0
Let’s see if a hike could open SOH or produce a single barrel :)
You can’t 25bp a chokepoint and r* isn’t neutral. It’s SOH risk premium, and We set it.
Stay unanchored !
The German Chancellor speaks of Iran’s “war,” its “military nuclear program,” and Iran’s “proxies.”
This narrative is knowingly distorted. It was #USrael - not Iran - that launched a war of aggression, and Germany failed to show even the minimum moral courage required to deplore that.
Those Berlin labels “proxies” are independent actors with their own clear causes and calculations. They are fighting for self-determination, freedom, and dignity against occupation, aggression and subjugation.
Iran has no “military” nuclear program - no matter how often the Israeli fabricated 'big lie' is repeated by Israeli apologists.
Our region should not have to pay the price for Germany’s guilt complex or its habit of appeasement vis-a-vis bullies.
Germany cannot underwrite the "dirty work" and then pose as a champion of peace and a moral instructor.
Fiction: Iran is defenseless.
Fact: 100s of U.S. military sites blown to pieces; dozens of aircraft scorched. (Source: The Pentagon)
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
We'll reveal it all in due course.
For those who've sold lies about Iran, it won't be pretty.
