President Obama’s video Message to the Iranian People

Omidreza Mir Sayafi, journalist and bloger, has died for unknown reasons in Evin prison.

Anahita (Ana) Sami cited allegations — attributed to Dai — that Parsi has served as a messenger and go-between for the Iranian regime, on one occasion passing information from Tehran to Karl Rove, deputy chief of staff in the last US administration.
Gabbay acknowledged that Parsi has had ongoing contacts with leading figures in the Iranian government, and likely continues to do so.

In 2002, a new pro-Iran group was formed by a young Swedish-Iranian immigrant named Trita Parsi.
The expanding influence of this pro-Iran lobby on U.S. foreign policy attests to a determined and sophisticated operation that serves only the interests of regime implacably hostile to America’s own national security interests.

On March 11, Trita Parsi testified before the House International Monetary Policy Subcommittee. He was invited to “enlighten” the lawmakers about the “futility” of sanctions against the Iranian regime. In his testimony, Parsi started to pose as a defender of human rights and the Iranian-Americans.
Regarding Parsi, the list of alleged connections to the Iranian regime seems longer and more serious. Trita Parsi and his National Iranian American Council have been supported, promoted and trusted by the Iranian regime.

Amir Heshmat Saran, political prisoner of Rajaii shahr prison in Karaj, dies mysteriously on March 6, after he was transferred to hospital for brain damage.

Japan’s UN Ambassador Yukio Takasu, the chairman of the committee monitoring sanctions against Iran, reported the violation to the council on Tuesday.

What do we tell the Iranian regime, that we don’t care about whatever they do to their people, we still consider them as a legitimate government. A government which is staying in power only through brute force, and yes, through deceit.
To American pundits, and analysts just the fact that they have presidential elections in Iran every four years is enough to give it legitimacy, no matter how they conduct these elections.

Bank Melli provides financial services, including opening letters of credit and maintaining accounts, for Iranian front companies and entities engaged in proliferation activities.

Iran now possesses 5,600 centrifuges in which it can enrich uranium — a 34-fold increase from 2006 — and plans to add 45,000 more over five years. That will give Tehran an ability to make atomic bombs on an industrial scale.
