Lift sanctions on Iran.
It's free. It's convenient. It saves lives. And it's your duty to fulfill your promise to return to
#JCPOA
.
Get vaccinated and get boosted.
It’s free. It’s convenient. It saves lives. And it’s your patriotic duty.

My latest for
@ForeignPolicy
: Israel won't be carrying out an overt military strike within Iranian territory. Political and military considerations make it highly unlikely.
The political and military constraints on Israeli decision-makers suggests such a military showdown is highly unlikely.

Shargh daily: some European embassies have ceased issuing visas to Iranians.
Euro govs love to express solidarity with Iranians, especially through sanctions & empty words, but their solidarity doesn't seem to extend to Iranians trying to visit loved ones in Europe.
Pathetic
صدور #ویزای_شنگن در ایران #تعلیق شد
رییس انجمن صنفی دفاتر مسافرتی #ایران:
برخی سفارتخانه‌های اروپایی، به‌ویژه در حوزه شنگن، بدون اطلاع رسمی و در تصمیمی که بیشتر شکل غیررسمی دارد، رسیدگی به درخواست ویزا را فعلا متوقف کرده و صدور ویزای شنگن را به حالت تعلیق درآورده‌اند_ایسنا

So
@RhonddaBryant
wants 🇮🇷 out of
#WorldcupQatar2022
because of Iran's purported arming of 🇷🇺 against 🇺🇦.
By that token, should we ban England and Wales from World Cup, too? And what about 🇺🇸?
Group B will be an empty group.

I mean it's nice that you pay tribute to our heritage but I'd much rather you lift your brutal sanctions on the Iranian people first.

#JCPOA
critics argue that reviving the deal will threaten
#Israel
's existence by allowing
#Iran
to find & arm allies. But I argue in this
@MiddleEastInst
piece that JCPOA revival can only threaten a certain conception of Israeli strategic thinking.

Whenever there are protests in
#Iran
, some in Iranians diaspora in West think it's time for them to shine in West. You ough to echoe grievances & views of Iranians, not hijack their struggle to make yourself look important in front of white friends over coffee breaks. #مهسا_امینی

Putin is holding the JCPOA talks and the global energy supply hostage.
The time to offer Iran an offer it can't refuse and neutralise Putin's stranglehold over the Western energy markets is NOW.

A problem with some Western progressives: Reckless, cold detachment from death, suffering, & injustice in faraway lands. Ironic because progressivism is at its core a form of altruism, seeing your own humanity in others.
But if your humanity has borders, is it even humanity?
I flew Apaches over Baghdad, ready to die for our country.
In the wake of the SCOTUS decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, I will not standby while Americans’ right to have an abortion is ripped away.
So for the love of God, vote this November.

In 2023, some in Germany need to be reminded that the Nazis did what they with glee.
This is near Auschwitz. I don't see any remorse here.

This graph produced by Conflict Armament Research (
@conflictarm
) shows almost 80% of
#Iranian
drones deployed in Ukraine were manufacture AFTER Trump's withdrawal from Nuclear Deal (JCPOA).
This can indicate a shift in
#Iran
's threat perception as soon as JCPOA began to unravel.
The Shahed-131, Shahed-136, and Mohajer-6 UAVs were made almost exclusively of recently produced non-Iranian parts. Most of the components for which investigators could identify a date of manufacture were made in 2020-2021 (4/7)

بارها گفته ام بار هم می گم: این طرفداران سرو و صدایشان از شمارشان بیشتر است.
روی ترس و نا امیدی شما سرمایه گذاری کرده اند.
میلی متری بهشون باج ندید.
استوار باشید.
خب طرفداران حامد اسماعیلیون بعد از خفه کردن رعنا رحیم‌پور موفق شدن احمد زیدآبادی رو هم که زندان و شکنجه ج.ا نتونسته بود ساکت کنه، ساکت کنند.
