@JZarif @almostjingo @drawandstrike @SecStudiesGrp @CarrollQuigley1 @GeorgWebb @eyad1949 @EmadAlmudaifer @HNIJohnMiller @rising_serpent @GaetaSusan .@hesamodin1, advisor to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, confirms IRGC Quds Force chief Qassem Soleimani (a designated terrorist) backs Zarif & Zarif backs Soleimani.

More reason why Zarif being sanctioned is correct.

 #Iran's sanctioned FM @JZarif just tweeted citing #Iran's "Journalist Day".

A reminder about how the mullahs' regime treats journalists.

"Iran has been one of the world’s most repressive countries for journalists for the past 40 years."

"State control of news and information is unrelenting and at least 860 journalists and citizen-journalists have been imprisoned or executed since 1979."

“We call for the immediate release of journalists held arbitrarily & urge the regime to stop suppressing the freedom to inform... Obstructing press freedom & arresting journalists do not in any help to combat corruption.”

As an enabler of Iranian expansion and Russian force projection, the regime of Bashar al-Assad presents problems for the U.S. and our allies. Here is what keeps the regime afloat and how vulnerable it is at this juncture. securitystudies.org/assad-regimes-…
Syrian civil war destroyed 3/4 of the national economy & wreaked havoc on all sectors, but the regime of Bashar al-Assad was able to weather the storm. While Iran and Russia secured his rule and turned the tide of the war in his favor, Assad managed to remain financially afloat.
Assad remained financially afloat by exhausting Syria’s cash reserves. For example, Syria’s foreign exchange reserves declined from $21 billion in 2010 to less then $1 billion by 2015.
