The Iranian Regime and the Loss of Syria
Syria was until a month ago a loyal and useful ally of the Islamic Republic. It was the conduit for weapons that went from Iran through Syria to then be delivered to Hezbollah in Lebanon. But the sudden overthrow of Assad, and the takeover of the country by Sunni Muslims who despise Shi’a Iran and […]
‘Many in Iran, as well as Muslims in other countries, are eager to fight Zionists and await Khamenei’s go-ahead’
“It is obligatory for anyone who can take a step for Palestine to do so,” says Golpayegani. This recalls the classic Islamic theological distinction that jihad is an obligation on the community as a whole (fard kifaya), and an individual is released from it if others are taking it up, but when a non-Muslim force […]
Assad’s Fall, and Khamenei’s Wobbling
Could the fall of Assad, which turned Syria from an ally of Iran into a bitter enemy, help inspire Iranians to rebel against their own despots? Herb Keinon discusses that possibility here: “Assad falls, Khamenei wobbles: Will events in Syria lead to something similar in Iran? – analysis,” by Herb Keinon, Jerusalem Post, December 9, 2024: […]
Treason: Days after Trump’s victory, Biden-Harris regime sent Iran ANOTHER $10,000,000,000
Isn’t treason giving aid and comfort to the enemy? How is this not treason? They’re chanting “Death to America” over in Tehran, and waging jihad around the region with money Old Joe is sending them. “The Biden State Department maintains that Iran is only permitted to use the funds for humanitarian needs.” They’re insulting the […]

Carroll, Newsweek, November 25, 2024: Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has called for death sentences for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders, in response to the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) recent arrest warrants. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei made […]
Iranian spokesman insists Khamenei is healthy, but announces three potential successors
You ever get the impression that you’re not being told the whole story? “Who are Khamenei’s likely successors?,” by Morad Veisi, Iran International, November 18, 2024: On November 15, a member of Iran’s Assembly of Experts announced that the Assembly has selected three individuals as potential successors to Ali Khamenei in order of priority. However, […]
Khamenei rumored to be seriously ill, may even be in a coma
A new Supreme Leader at this time of high tension could lead to ‘widespread public protests,” as the story below notes, or even the toppling of the Islamic regime, which likely will soon not be able to count on Old Joe Biden and his henchmen to prop it up with another few billion dollars. “Iran […]
As US B-52 bombers arrive in Middle East, Khamenei vows ‘tooth-breaking response’ to Israel and US
Whatever Iran is capable of doing is largely due to the billions of dollars that flowed into its coffers thanks to the Biden administration, not to mention Obama’s bogus nuke deal and negotiations that also saw tens of billions go to Iran. In 2021, Rafael Grossi, the director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, warned […]
Israel Strikes Back, Hits Iran with Rocket Barrage
New in PJ Media: On Friday night, Israel launched its much-feared and much-anticipated attack against Iran, hitting Tehran and nearby Karaj with a series of airstrikes in retaliation for Iran’s missile attack on Israel on Oct. 1. During the three-and-a-half weeks between Iran’s strike and Israel’s retaliation, we have seen the Biden-Harris regime pull out […]
