.@EmmanuelMacron , I don't know what your issue is or who is feeding you intel, but you are getting Iran wrong, again. Blocking the IRGC terrorist listing shows Iranians that France is not aligned with the freedoms we have bled and died for. If you don't want to help, fine. Just stop making things harder for the Iranian people.

[Eli Afriat 🇮🇱 @EliAfriatISR]

🚨🇮🇷BREAKING: Iranian state media has now announced that sharing videos of the massacre is a CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

If the video is sent to foreign media outlets (such as Iran International or Western networks), the offense becomes “collaboration with hostile states”.

A crime that could lead to 10 years in prison or even the DEATH penalty.

----

Understand, this doesn't just happen.

It's not just that there's been no internet in Iran for over 400 hours.

It's not just that they're issuing such announcements.

What's happened in Iran since the internet shutdown will be remembered no less than a HOLOCAUST.

[Shermin Amiri @SherminAmiri]

Nu TIME bericht dat in Iran mogelijk tienduizenden demonstranten in twee dagen zijn gedood, kan Nederland niet volstaan met verklaringen. Dit vraagt een breuk.

Diplomatie veronderstelt een minimale bereidheid tot bescherming van burgers. Een regime dat massaal eigen demonstranten doodt, het internet afsluit en informatie systematisch onderdrukt, voldoet daar niet aan. In die context normaliseert een open ambassade geweld in plaats van het te begrenzen.

Nederland kan zich niet langer veroorloven om diplomatieke banden met Iran ongewijzigd te laten. Opschorting van de banden en sluiting van de ambassade liggen nu voor de hand. Dat is geen precedentloos gebaar, maar een legitiem instrument bij grove mensenrechtenschendingen. Consulaire taken kunnen via derde landen worden geregeld; politieke aanwezigheid in Teheran is geen noodzaak.

Blijven praten terwijl burgers doelwit zijn van grootschalig staatsgeweld is geen voorzichtigheid. Het is het ontbreken van een grens.

.@khamenei_ir and his entire regime (past and present) must be arrested and charged with crimes against humanity. Enough is enough. The entire world must take action. #FreeIran

[Omid Djalili @omid9]

🚨As of yesterday, the Islamic regime opened up the Internet at around 30% connectivity. Forced to do it for their own interests as the country was near to complete paralysis.

As such, hundreds of videos have now come through on the telegram channels. I’ve seen about 10% of them. I have now stopped.

We always knew what this regime was capable of. The cruelty, savagery and barbarism that I am seeing now is on a different level. It is not just the foreign militias hired by the regime from Iraq and Afghanistan to do their dirty work. It is also Iranian security forces against their fellow countrymen, unarmed civilians.

The numbers being killed each day is increasing at such an alarming rate it is beyond shocking. Bodies are piled up on the streets of the major cities in black bags like garbage. Equally staggering is the silence and inaction by the international community.

Hitler tried to exterminate the Jews. What we are witnessing in Iran in real time is a government trying exterminate a segment of their own population that that does not agree with them. Even if it’s the majority, there is no stopping them.

What gives people in Iran hope is us not looking away. But most importantly - in the brief moments the internet allows them - to glimpse messages of support from people on here. Because it make them feel less lonely.

All eyes on Iran.

[Henry Bolton OBE 🇬🇧 @_HenryBolton]

President Trump has hailed British troops as heroes. That’s fine and good, but what about apologising for the deep hurt he’s caused British veterans and families, and what about all the servicemen and women of the other nations who fought alongside America? And to cap it, his flippant attempt at humour - “second to none, except the USA” - suggests he still doesn’t take the offence he caused seriously.

[Jason Kenney 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇮🇱 @jkenney]

Not good enough, Senator @LindseyGrahamSC.

He insulted the honour of “NATO allies,” not just the UK.

Canadians didn’t “hang a little back from the front lines.” They took one of the toughest missions: in Kandahar.

Virtually every NATO country suffered combat deaths, and many were in the thick of the action.

Denmark suffered the second highest level of combat deaths, per capita.

We all know that you cling to his endorsement like a drowning man to a raft, but please stop pretending that your craven attachment to him is based on principle or honour. It’s unseemly. Your late friend John McCain must be rolling over in his grave.

[Mark Brouwer @markbrouwer2010]

I don’t think the US president will read this post, but I feel obliged to pay tribute to the dozens of Netherlands soldiers who have died in Afghanistan. Even the son of our Chief of Defense was killed in action. Because the Netherlands saw it as its duty to help an ally. Statement after statement is now flying our way across the pond. The falsehood that we were not on the front line calls for a response. As dear as the Americans are to me, nonsense must be countered.

[Generaal Onno Eichelsheim @CDS_Defensie]

Nederlandse militairen hebben in #Afghanistan onder gevaarlijke omstandigheden gediend, uit solidariteit met bondgenoten. Ze hebben daar gevochten voor veiligheid en offers gebracht die zij en hun families voor altijd meedragen.

Hun inzet verdient erkenning, geen ontkenning.

[Gazelle غزاله شارمهد @GazelleSharmahd]

Oh NO, @marklevinshow .

No one is asking for the most powerful army on earth to “take down” Khamenei 🚨

Khamenei is not a strategic threat to the United States. He already has one foot in the grave and the other heading toward either justice by the Iranian people or international justice.

If you’re going to use your powerful voice to speak on behalf of Iran, then listen to Iranians:

The regime’s repressive machinery consists of TWO JIHADIST MILITIAS responsible for mass murder, genocide, and global threat to all Americans:

1. the IRGC and
2. the BASIJ.

We do not want a Venezuela-style intervention — removing one dictator only to install his deputy.
Iranians are not risking their lives to remove one turban.
They are fighting to dismantle the entire Islamic occupation.

That means the only help that makes sense is this:
Neutralize the repressive apparatus — the Arab-Islamist jihadist militias that are shooting Iranians in the streets.
They are not killing “their own people.” They are attacking their mortal enemies.

This narrative about “taking out Khamenei” is unacceptable — and frankly smells like NIAC-style regime-preservation framing.

History is clear.
In World War II, the Allies didn’t launch a surgical mission to assassinate Hitler.🚨
They destroyed the SS and the Nazi enforcement machine.
Hitler ended himself in a bunker.

Do the same here.

Target the IRGC and the Basij only.
Leave Khamenei, his propagandists, and IRGC commanders for Nuremberg-style trials.

The Iranian people are ready to reclaim their country from Islamic occupation.
The international community must now recognize and engage the transitional leadership under @PahlaviReza , who has laid out six clear and specific requests for the free world.

None of them includes “the supreme Turban”!

President Trump was very clear “Iranian patriots! Reclaim your institutions. Help is on the way”. This is about ending a jihadist occupation and letting a nation finish its own liberation.

No one should speak over the president or over the will of 90 million brave people, who put everything on the line to free the world from the biggest Jihadists machine.

Than you 🙏

[Amit Segal @AmitSegal]

According to Israeli officials the night of January 8 on the streets of Iran was the deadliest in the history of the Islamic Republic—and among the deadliest worldwide in a generation.

The regime murdered thousands, possibly tens of thousands.

A massacre on an almost unimaginable scale.

[Mehdi Ketabchy @MehdiKetabchy]

Prediction for the future:

The day the regime in Iran collapses, the world will be STUNNED to discover how modern, secular, anti-theocracy, pro-USA, and pro-Israel Iranians are, and how passionately they embrace music, dancing, and joy.

[Nooshin Samimi نوشین صمیمی @nsamimi9]

Americans are outraged by the unlawful murder of two citizens exercising their constitutional rights. Now imagine the pain of Iranians who have watched thousands be murdered in front of them, their bodies piled in bags and sent to morgues.

[Persian God @RealPersianGod]

Mr. President @POTUS, we know that you know the executions haven’t stopped. You just won’t admit it, because admitting it would mean you’ve broken your promise twice!

[Shahin Milani @shahinmilani81]

My fellow Americans, as we are rightfully outraged by the murder of Alex Pretti at the hands of government agents in Minnesota, just imagine if 20,000 people had been killed in the same manner over two days.

That’s what Iranians are experiencing right now.

[Meir Javedanfar Ph.D.- מאיר ג'בדנפר @MeirJa]

If the Iranian regime can bring foreign forces from Iraq and Afghanistan to kill Iranians, then the people of #Iran are within their rights to ask for assistance from foreign forces (the U.S & #Israel) to defend themselves.

[Nazanin Nour @NazaninNour]

If I posted one person a day that the Islamic Republic killed in this latest massacre, I’d have to post everyday for the next 49 years.
