Understanding the current state of the Iranian regime

Understanding the current state of the Iranian regime These days, the fascist regime ruling Iran is in the worst state of its 40-year history, surrounded by a multitude of political, social and economic crises. Iranian officials are regularly confessing to their regime's deadlock and their incapacity to find a way out. In contrast, the Iranian resistance and the people of Iran are gaining momentum with every passing day, especially after putting behind one of the greatest political acts of their history.

The Iran Cyber Threat

People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran - PMOI/MEK In recent years, the Iranian regime has emerged as a global cyber espionage and attack threat. The mullahs ruling Iran are constantly escalating their efforts to deploy cyber-attack capabilities against Iranian dissidents as well as the critical infrastructure of other nations. Tehran also uses social media platforms to spread misinformation and fake news. The Iranian regime has been imposing the harshest internet censorship against its own people from day one, denying Iranians access to free information. The world’s most popular social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook and YouTube remain banned in Iran. This cruel internet censorship has made Iran one of the “enemies of the internet.” Iran’s regime notoriously employs malware for espionage, especially identifying activists and pro-democracy protesters within its borders. Even some Iranian state-sponsored spyware, such as like “Telegram Talaei” and “Mob...

Iran: The Untold Story-Episode 6

Iran: The Untold Story-Episode 6 Former National Security Adviser Gen. James Jones says Iranian resistance group should be celebrated. In the 1980s, fearing competition, the Iranian regime pushed its main opposition group, known as the MEK, out of Iran. They fled to safety in Paris and later were forced to move to Iraq. At Camp Ashraf in Iraq, the MEK was repeatedly attacked by pro-Iranian forces. More than 140 MEK members were killed and more than 1,300 were wounded between 2009 and 2016. The attacks convinced members of Congress to issue six bipartisan resolutions to protect the MEK as “protected persons.” And the National Defense Authorization Act of 2015 called for the protection of MEK members in Iraq. By 2016, the US and United Nations helped the MEK to safely resettle to Albania. Gen. James Jones, the National Security Advisor to President Obama and former Commandant of the US Marine Corps, views the MEK and the broader coalition the National Council of Resistanc...
