After taking hits in the Iran War, CENTCOM is considering moving US bases out of the Gulf region and into Israel's Negev desert.

Disturbing footage from a morgue in Khorramabad following the January 8–9 uprising.
Every hallway, every room, even the courtyard is packed with the bodies of protesters.
Keep in mind: Khorramabad is home to only around 300,000 people.
Now imagine what unfolded in a city of 15 million like Tehran.
The scale of the Massacre is almost impossible to comprehend.
#IranMassacre
🚨صدایش باشیم🚨
این بانوی چادری شهرزاد ضمیری از پرسنل پلیس خراسان رضوی است که طی روزهای ۱۸ و ۱۹ دیماه حاضر به سرکوب هموطنان خود نشد
وبه رسالت خود حفاظت از جان ومال وناموس مردم پایبند ماند
۴۰ روز شکنجه وانفرادی در اطلاعات وسپس با مشکلات جسمی و روانی روانه زندان وکیلآباد مشهد شد❤️
Bob Blackman and the British Committee for Iran Freedom should be ashamed.
While the Iranian people were being massacred following the nationwide uprising and the calls of the shah @PahlaviReza, with independent reports estimating tens of thousands of deaths and some reports placing the death toll above 80,000 these politicians chose to lobby against him while standing with the MEK. Rather than standing with the victims of the Islamic Republic, they chose to support an organisation whose leader remains excluded from entering the United Kingdom.
Let’s be clear:
The MEK is a Marxist-Islamist cult-like organisation, formerly proscribed as a terrorist organisation in the United Kingdom.
Its leader, Maryam Rajavi, has been barred from entering the UK since 1997. That exclusion was maintained by the Home Secretary and upheld by the UK Supreme Court.
Yet these politicians choose to attack Reza Pahlavi while standing with an organisation whose leader is not even allowed into Britain on public-good, foreign-policy and security grounds.
That is not support for the Iranian people.
That is support for a discredited organisation rejected by Iranians.

I strongly condemn Bob Blackman and every politician who gives legitimacy to the MEK and its leader Maryam Rajavi.
Iran belongs to the Iranian people not to a discredited cult, not to lobbyists, and not to those who try to erase the voice of a nation.

There’s an old scripture that says: “I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse.” Iran cannot keep choosing death and curse. And today we once again urge Iran to revert to the path of peace and dialogue.
The world is not with Iran.
Iran's own people are not with this regime, and its neighbors are not with this regime.
The Islamist Regime in Iran has cost Europe hundreds of billions of euros since the Islamists seized power in Tehran in 1979 🧵
The Iranian people stand to benefit the most from the fall of the Islamist regime, but due to geographic proximity, Europeans would also see great profits from improved trade relations with a pro-Western Iran.
A stable, prosperous and free Iran with normalized relations with the EU would unlock enormous economic potential. Bilateral trade, currently suppressed by sanctions and mistrust, could surge from today’s modest levels to tens of billions of euros annually.
Iran possesses vast natural resources Europe desperately needs for its strategic autonomy. It holds the world’s second-largest natural gas reserves and fourth-largest oil reserves. It is also rich in copper, zinc, chromium, manganese and rare earth elements such as Cerium, Lanthanum, Neodymium and Yttrium which are all needed by Europe’s tech and defense industries.
With sanctions lifted and investment flowing, European companies could secure reliable energy supplies, diversify away from Russia and build new pipelines to the Eastern Mediterranean.
A free and prosperous Iran would generate jobs in Europe, lower energy prices, reduce import dependence and create shared wealth, turning Iran from a security threat into a major trading partner.

Khamenei Jr, Ghalibaf, and Pezeshkian are ramping up persecution of Iran’s Christians.
Here are some facts Americans should know about the church in Iran:
- Converting to Christianity is punishable by death
- Pastors are jailed
- Bibles are contraband
- Christians are tortured
@JosephGelman many U.S. banks and corporations did invest in and trade with Nazi Germany in the 1930s, often seeing short-term profits, while some firms like Ford, GM, and IBM continued operations even after the war began and were later accused of benefiting the Nazi regime
Now the Qataris.

In Ghalibaf’s interview this week on state television, he says under no circumstances will we grant the IAEA access to nuclear sites that were bombed in #Iran.
