Contrary to Jaroslav Lukiv's claims, both the Iranian regime and its terrorist proxies of course seek to do far more than “combating…Israeli influence”. They also share the goal of destroying Israel, a fact omitted by the BBC reporter.
Lukiv continues with a portrayal of the war between Israel and Hamas that completely erases Hamas’ October 7th 2023 invasion of Israel, massacre of civilians and taking of hostages.
ULTIM'ORA: Rischia l'impiccagione Hossein (Shahan) Alizadeh #Hosseini, un architetto iraniano di 38 anni, perché il regime islamico dell'#Iran lo ha accusato di aver insultato #Adamo ed #Eva sui social media. Chiunque critichi l'#Islam o ne metta in discussione gli insegnamenti rischia la pena di morte secondo le barbare leggi del regime islamico.
Hossein era è stato imprigionato anche per aver criticato sui social media il leader supremo del regime islamico, Ali #Khamenei.
Putin tries to claim Ukraine never existed, that we don't have our own language, culture, history.
He is doing this against us, he will do it against you too.
In his mind only the USSR ever existed.
Generations of Western audiences have seen white people in expensive suits and the relative modernity of central Moscow and are then blinded to what Russia actually is.
The reality is an inhuman level of poverty across 95% of the country that is seen nowhere in the western hemisphere - a petri dish of brutality and ignorance that's impossible for those in civilized nations to comprehend.
A captured Russian explains how they live in the Bashkortostan region. No indoor toilet, no shower in winter, caloric sustenance by eating a single horse leg over several months, no school - then they're sent to rape and murder for the czar in a place they aim to call "Russia".
💥 As the US fights a war with Iran, behaving like a true ally yet again, Ukraine destroyed two Russian cargo ships transporting Russian weapons to Iran in the Caspian Sea.
Yet, no one is willing to do this for Ukraine.
Iran threatened Ukraine with ballistic missile strikes.
One of the defenders of Mariupol, now a prisoner of war, during a trial in russia. I’ve seen similar images from Auschwitz – this is how the Nazis treated their prisoners.
Russians are furious that warehouses are burning & daily life is getting harder.
The war they enjoyed watching on TV is arriving in real life.
There is a very simple way to stop it: leave Ukraine.
چهل و شش سال از درگذشت پدرم میگذرد، اما او امروز زندهترین چهره سیاسی در پیشگاه تاریخ و دل ایرانیان است.
شعله عشق ملت ایران به او روز به روز بلندتر و فروزانتر میشود. همانطور که جاویدنام مجیدرضا رهنورد به نیابت از میلیونها جوان ایرانی نوشت: «نسلی عاشقت شد، که تو را هرگز ندید».
پدرم با تمام وجود، عاشقِ ایران بود. قلب او با طبیعت این خاک میتپید و باریدن باران بر دشتهای ایران، برایش بهترین و زیباترین خبر بود.
او در ۲۲ سالگی، کشور را در شرایط دشوار اشغال متفقین تحویل گرفت و با تکیه بر م��هنپرستی، ایران را به سوی دروازههای تمدن بزرگ هدایت کرد. اگر فاجعه ۵۷، مسیر تاریخ ما را منحرف نمیکرد، ایران امروز یکی از درخشانترین قطبهای رفاه و توسعه در جهان بود.
هممیهنانم، اگر به راه او باور داریم، مسئولیت بزرگی بر دوش ماست. برای وفاداری به نگاه او، ما باید ایران را از این فرقه تبهکار پس بگیریم و آن را دوباره بسازیم.
پاینده ایران

I lost count how many beheadings they filmed and posted.
Most of them live, as in, the process of it.
Imagine seeing a video of the your father, husband, brother, lover, friend killed like this.
Russians laugh and taunt when they do it too, you can hear it over the screaming.
I'm here in Lviv, Ukraine, over 1,000 km from the front lines, yet the russians are still trying to kill us.
My dog is traumatised by the sirens after experiencing so many drones and missiles firsthand.
Fuck Russia.
In solidarity with Ukraine, Poles have also begun returning their state decorations to the President of Poland.
Piotr Fogler, a former member of the Polish Parliament, has sent back his Gold Cross of Merit. He wrote:
“I am symbolically returning my award in protest against the foolish decision to strip the President of Ukraine of his order. This is not a gesture against the President who awarded it to me, whom I respect, but against the current occupant of the Belvedere Palace, who is increasingly making Poland and all of us a laughingstock. What this so-called President has done, and continues to do, is a nightmare. To me, he is not the President of my country, but a misunderstanding.”
SIKORSKI: I'd like to point out the difference in the targets that the two sides select. Russians hit an 11th-century monastery in Kyiv. And remember, in the 11th century, Moscow was still a forest. Ukrainians hit an oil refinery in Moscow, which is a legitimate military target.
Alexander Browder, a 17-year-old London teenager, has become Russia's youngest ever sanctions target. He has built a database exposing the crypto networks helping Russia and other rogue states dodge Western sanctions.
In March, @Alexbrowder_ published a report for the Henry Jackson Society think tank, describing money-laundering mechanisms involving cryptocurrencies and estimating the scale of such operations by Russia, Iran, and North Korea at around $350 billion.
▪️ Cryptocurrency as a sanctions-evasion tool
A stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency whose value is pegged to a stable asset. This may be a currency, such as the ruble. This avoids the sharp price fluctuations typical of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, making the token convenient for payments and transfers.
According to Alexander Browder, this stability made the A7A5 stablecoin a useful instrument for sanctions evasion. The ruble-pegged token allowed payments to be conducted outside the banking system, which has been blocked for Russia by Western sanctions.
Alexander described A7A5 as one of the West's biggest challenges in the fight against money laundering. According to the British Foreign Office, more than $90 billion passed through the stablecoin network linked to the token in the past year alone.
That figure is comparable to roughly half of Russia's annual military spending. In late May, London imposed sanctions on 18 platforms in several countries, accusing them of creating shadow financial systems to circumvent restrictions.
▪️ Russia's response
On June 2, the Russian foreign ministry added Browder and four other British citizens to its sanctions list. They were accused of "slander and spreading false information." The teenager was banned from entering Russia.
Browder himself took the move calmly. According to him, the sanctions have become a badge of honor and proof that his investigation has "touched a nerve."
By the way, Alexander is the son of financier and human rights advocate William Browder @Billbrowder, CEO and co-founder of Hermitage Capital. His lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, died in a Russian prison in 2009 after exposing a major tax fraud scheme. Browder Sr. is an outspoken critic of Putin and the initiator of the Magnitsky Act.
According to Alexander, it was his father's story that inspired him to pursue investigations. He believes that today's schemes for financing war through cryptocurrencies require a new, younger generation of analysts.
