Animals > people. Iranian / Brit. Death to the Islamic Republic.
Not one peep from Leftists, Progressives or the media.😒 Only Israel and AIPAC is coming out of their mouth. www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...
While we are on a music kick, lets listen to what ancient Persia sounded like around 1400 BC? Sarah Parsaei performs on the Arjan harp — a historic instrument with roots going back nearly 3,400 years — in Tehran, Iran. #globalmuseum #music #Persian #musicalinstruments #history
Two regimes that jail and hang gay men just played the World Cup’s Pride match. Both demanded FIFA shut it down. FIFA refused, so they had to compete in the gayest stadium of the World Cup. I'd call that poetic justice.

Trump promising to ‘come to the rescue’ of protesters remains one of his most unfathomably irresponsible statements
Dear idiots who think Hezbollah fights for Lebanon, here is the flag they fight for and the imperialist power they serve.
The Internet is filled with whining, crying russian vatniks – none of whom take responsibility for the genocidal war on Ukraine they started. This is why the war will only end with Ukraine’s victory and a catastrophic, humiliating and empire-destroying defeat for the russian invaders.
“How much longer are they going to keep tormenting us? When will this all end?” They didn’t cry when Russia struck a children’s hospital in Kyiv or when zoo animals drowned after the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam. But they are crying now because they can’t fill up their cars.
You’ll probably see people twist this into an outcome of Trump and Netanyahu launching a war against the Islamic regime. It’s not. This is how the Islamic regime in Iran is, and always has been. It only knows violence and repression.
An Iranian court has sentenced the singer Parastoo Ahmadi to 74 lashes for performing at a concert without a hijab, according to a person close to her family and state media news reports. She and her band will also be barred from leaving the country or performing for two years. trib.al/0N2qVt1
Well worth a listen if you’d like more of an insight into where Iran is today 👇
This was a super interesting conversation. Watch below if you'd like to understand Iran, the impact of the war or what may happen next. We discuss the origins of the regime, the power of the Revolutionary Guards and much more. Crazy stories, too.
Also for the 150000000th time, none of the money that any of you westerners give will ever be spent on Iran and Iranians. Neither IR nor IRGC give a shit about any of us. All of it will immediately be funneled into either hezbollah or rebuilding the security apparatus. But keep on dreaming donny boy
Trump to reporters: “"All that money is coming back in the form of purchases of food, which they desperately need. They have 91 million people, they can't feed them, so the money that we lift is going to go to our farmers, largely to our farmers."
The same Iranian regime many in the West have been cheering for because they can’t focus on anything other than their hatred of Israel and the US
A court in the Iranian regime sentenced singer Parastoo Ahmadi and seven fellow artists to 74 lashes, a two-year travel ban, and a two-year ban on artistic activity - after she livestreamed a concert on YouTube without wearing a hijab.
Where do they find these writers? Another article in the Guardian that sidesteps much of what happened in Iran and paints a picture of a rallying around the flag that never happened. No mention of how the nightly gatherings are orchestrated by the regime www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...
Iran’s regime survived the war. Can it make peace with its own people?
If war triggered a rare moment of solidarity in the divided country, many doubt it will be used for reform

After the elections, president Aoun and PM Salam took down all of Hezbollah’s Iran propaganda posters. Today, Hezbollah is signaling to the Lebanese government that it’s back. There will never be peace in the Middle East without the collapse of Islamic Iran regime. (Hussain Abdul-Hussain)
The amount of Western journalists almost joyous when they describe the war with Iran’s regime as “unwinnable” Well yes, when regime change is foolishly not your aim and the war is being run by someone as stupid as Trump then sure, but don’t make out like the regime wasn’t there for the taking.
The next time you see someone cheer on the Islamic Republic just because they hate Trump or Israel, remind them that this sort of thing happens all the time. It takes a really broken, ignorant mind to root for a regime like Iran’s just because you’re opposed to US and Israeli foreign policy.
Meanwhile the Islamic regime in Iran has executed nearly 750 people this year alone, many of them protesters who survived the massacres in January, and a number on charges of “waging war against god” It couldn’t possibly be the IRGC and their illegitimate theocracy that’s a malign influence
It's Israel (again), stupid !!! When will the US finally get to understand that Israel is the actual malign influence in the Middle East ? Stop supporting their terrorist regime and watch things quickly improve across the whole region
One of the casualties of the US -Israeli attack on Iran is the memory of the tens of thousands of protesters killed by the Iranian regime just a few weeks before. Trump has allowed brutal bullies to be recast as victims, probably pushing the chance of political change in Iran back by decades.
Things you won’t see in those viral Lego videos the regime puts out…
Maybe the French Foreign Ministry should also call on Hezbollah to stop attacking Israel and urge the US to "exert the necessary pressure" on both the Islamists and Israel It is unwise to antagonize Israel at a time when Europe depends on Israeli weapons to defend itself against russian aggression
France urges Israel to stop the offensive in Lebanon
Paris demands an end to attacks on Lebanon from Israel and asks the US to pressure for the implementation of the ceasefire agreement in the region.

Worth remembering that even when the Islamic regime in Iran was at its weakest, much of the opposition outside of the country still refused to work together. The Pahlavists and NCRI would rather fight each other and everyone else at every opportunity instead. Just what the Islamic republic wants 🤦♂️
Met dank aan Donald Trump kan het misdadige regime in Iran nog wel even doorgaan.
Update #IranProtests (402): Iraans regime veroordeelde zangeres Parastoo Ahmadi & haar 8 bandleden tot 74 zweepslagen, verbod v 2 jr op artistieke activiteiten & 2 jr reisverbod vanwege een online gepubliceerde video v haar concert, die niet voldeed aan d hijab regels #IranMassacre #WomanLifeFreedom
The russians are so evil that people around the world experienced tremendous joy at the sight of Moscow burning, which led to some hilarious memes.
The IRGC, not Iranians We’re not and never have been a party to any of this. If we were we would demand uncompromisingly for all 200k members of the IRGC to get the fuck out of our country and leave us the fuck alone.
Pretty much sums it up as the world goes back to its comfort zone of ignoring the violence and repression of the Islamic regime in #Iran (via the Guardian)
