The regime is showing every indication that they’re on their last legs. Everyone knows they are a regime of terror.
For too long, the United States was sympathetic to Iran.

UK, France & Germany are mistaken in their adherence to [Obama/Biden's] flawed nuclear deal that doesn’t hold Iran to account. It emboldens the regime to continue domestic crackdown & export terrorism.

There’s no question that #Iran is the number one supporter of terrorism in many parts of the world. There’s no question their ultimate goal is to develop nuclear weapons. This regime has identified itself as the enemy of the people.

President Trump ended 40 years of appeasement vis-a-vis Iran's mullahs. He also exited the nuclear deal that helped Tehran fuel regional terrorism.

Iran has turned the Middle East into a battlefield. The aggravated economic situation in Iran could have consequences. It is clear that any vacuum left by the West will be filled by Iran.

Strengthening sanctions on Iran is a proper response to its continued aggressions. The behavior of the government hasn’t changed after [Obama/Biden's] nuclear deal, the JCPOA.

It is an absolute necessity that we hold Iran's officials to account for their crimes against humanity. They tortured a confession out of #NavidAfkari and they executed him. We must hold them to account for this crime.

Iran has asked for sanctions relief through the JCPOA, yet it doesn’t comply w/ the JCPOA. Our European friends can’t hide behind the JCPOA & argue Iran should be provided relief from sanx when Iran is not even complying w/ the JCPOA.

With each passing year, the people realize the future can’t be the mullahs, the IRGC. There will be more positive things happening, the forces of freedom will become stronger, the mullahs will become weaker & less capable.

Too many Iranians have been punished for asking to participate in their own government. Thousands have been arrested or killed as part of legitimate protests. Violence towards those seeking a democracy must come to an end.

Cannot be fooled by the regime like the previous administration was in 2015. There is no moderation with them. There is no peacemaker among them.

So, #Iran's IRGC launches a drone attack in NE Syria, killing one American contractor and wounding several U.S. troops.

But MSM is hyped about a recent Saudi-Iran agreement and wants you to trust Tehran, the world's leading state-sponsor of terrorism.

Think about that. ImageImageImage
Biden & his admin claim they "will take all necessary measures to defend our people."

However, "Iran has launched 78 attacks on US positions in Syria since January 2021" with minimum response from the Biden admin.

Why? To revive Obama's failed nuke deal.

US warplanes likely targeted
—Harabesh area of Deir Ez Zor, E Syria, near a military airport
—ammo depot of #Iran's IRGC militia near the former Nasr Center building
—site in the vicinity of Port Said Street in Deir Ez Zor center

The most common slogan in #IranRevolution identified in these protests is “Death to the dictator!” and “Death to the oppressor, be it the Shah or the mullahs!”

@Mahifeh23 .@giannagancia
I would like to thank @STRUANSTEVENSON for his important new book. I think it's very important to fight against the theocratic regime in #Iran & it's important to wake up all the people about what really is happening in Iran.

With this thread I aim to raise attention about Twitter’s ongoing shadow-banning.

After a series of back-and-forth letters, @TwitterSupport informed me that my account “has been permanently marked as potentially sensitive.”

Any explanation? None.

It gets even more interesting:

“There is currently no way to appeal a decision by Twitter that permanently changes your account setting to Mark media you tweet as containing material that may be sensitive…” Image
3)
Through the years, Twitter has informed me of a few tweets they wanted deleted. I have complied every time.

My work focuses on Iran, the regime’s crimes and corruption, the West’s appeasement policy, and Iran’s network of apologists/lobbyists.

This has angered some people.
