Why do @FIFAWorldCup and the free press bend over backwards to protect the Islamic Republic? The fact that cameras at the World Cup purposely cut off the shots of Iran fans to exclude their Lion and Sun flags is baffling. We should not have to convince anyone to care about the horrors this regime has inflicted on innocent Iranians for decades.
London based Iranian journalist Panah FarhadBahman has used his social media platform to echo threats repeatedly aired by the Islamic Republic’s state media against UK-based journalists and dissidents.
FarhadBahman’s post reads:
“Those who became Israel’s voice during the war know very well that as long as the Islamic Republic remains in power, they will always have to watch their backs. It’s only natural that they continue to go to great lengths. For their long-term protection, they need to prove their loyalty to Mossad.”
The remarks come after @janeprinsley of @JewishChron revealed that Iran’s state broadcaster, a key platform for spreading threats and hate against British-Iranian journalists, operates an office in the United Kingdom.
Whether or not Europe stands with us, whether or not your journalists do their jobs, whether or not your politicians demonstrate the courage to act, I will fight for my people and my country.
Mr. @SecMullinDHS, as you step into your new position I ask you to provide particular consideration to the status of Iranian students and professionals in the United States who may be at risk of immigration complications due to Presidential Proclamations 10949 and 10998. Many of these individuals fled the Islamic Republic’s because they believe in freedom, democracy, and the values this country stands for. They are also contributing to the United States every day.
They arrived in this country legally, followed the rules, respect this country and its system of law and order and are among the most dedicated and accomplished contributors to American society. I ask that you and your department consider these factors, plus the personal and political risk many of these young people would face if sent back to the criminal regime in Iran.
America’s concerns for its national security and the threat posed by the Islamic regime to the homeland are entirely justified. To that end, my office stands ready to provide you and your colleagues with regime operatives, propaganda agents, and influence networks for investigation and removal from the United States.
Thank you for your consideration.
Extraordinary. To anyone who thought Iran was sanctioned into poverty, do know that the regime continued selling oil anyway and even received $150 billion in ‘sanctions relief’ yet didn’t build a single street, residential complex or industrial facility for its citizens. Most of the money went towards terrorism and building ‘missile cities’. Watch ⬇️
"Iran Experts" echoing Javad Zarif’s talking points in the media following the assassination of Qassem Soleimani:
Mohammad Marandi, Trita Parsi, Narges Bajoghli, Negar Mortazavi, Barbara Slavin, Jamal Abdi, and Ali Vaez (January 2020).
@iranidaturan The Pahlavi dynasty banned men from forcing their daughters and wives to cover their hair and face, gave women right to vote and to equal inheritance and put the crown on the head of an Iranian woman
More acts of unbelievable courage. To put this in context, think Iranian equivalent of former England 🏴 goalkeeper Joe Hart putting his life on the line to speak out. Mazaheri also posted a picture on his Instagram combining Ali Khamenei with the word "Satan”.

@ArkianiN بهتره شروع کنیم به کارگیری تاریخ ایرانی که میشه 2533. یادمان باشه تاریخ ایران از هجرت محمد شروع نمیشه. یه کم سخته عادت کردن بهش ولی یادمیگیریم
@GazelleSharmahd@yashar@GazelleSharmahd Have you been restricted? Unfortunately you don't seem to get enough impressions (and thank you for your dedication to echo the voice of Iranians)
@iranA7788 هر کس سمت مردم و سمت شاه رو برگزیند خبر خوبی برای انقلاب ماست. خانم عبادی فردی بیتعصب و آگاه هست که متوجه خاص مردم ایران شده و امیدوارم تا آزادی ایران و بعد از اون در سمت درست تاریخ بماند
