1- Iran is flexing its muscles in the face of the West specially the US, Israel and E-3 (France, the UK, and Germany) as the parliament ratifies a motion officially ending Iran’s cooperation with the #IAEA. Out of 223 lawmakers, 222 voted for and one abstained.
2- The ratification of the motion is very important, due to the destructive role of the #IAEA, its 130 inspectors and Director General Rafael Grossi had in recent weeks which led to Israel’s unprovoked strike on #Iran.
3- Per the new bill, the IAEA’s head is now banned from entering Iran, IAEA’s inspectors will be kicked out and all their cameras will be taken off. Iran’s atomic energy organization IS NOT ALLOWED to share any report or information about 🇮🇷 nuclear program with the agency.
4- The bill however will be revered if these conditions are met:
- Iran is guaranteed its nuclear facilities and scientists remain safe and nobody takes any actions against them
- Iran’s right to enrichment on its soil is respected
5- With the ratification of this motion which should be shoild be enacted by Pezeshkian, the #IAEA, European countries, the U.S. and most importantly Israel will be unaware of the condition of Iran’s nuclear program or material, facilities, etc.

1- Three days since the beginning of Israeli strikes against Iran, it seems apart from the first 12 hours, that Israeli jets fired missiles into Iranian soil, the rest of the attacks across the country have taken place by Israel’s collaborators
2- This disciplined, small but killer army of Israel has been busy with wreaking havoc inside Iran by launching small surface-to-surface projectiles, suicide drones and planting bombs. It is believed drones are carried out to locations with mainly pickups or small trucks.
3- At times when we hear the sounds of explosions, we don’t hear sound of jets flying overhead; because there are no Israeli jets in the Iranian airspace.
The anti-aircraft guns target projectiles, drones or micro-drones quipped with powerful explosives.
1- Iranians -unlike Israelis- don’t care about the policy of ambiguity; therefore the Ministry of Intelligence flexes its muscles against MOSSAD, and proudly speaks about the seizure of #Israel’s intelligence, nuclear and military documents.
2- The Iranian Intelligence Ministry says the Israeli documents have strategic, practical, research and scientific aspects, part of which specifically is related to Israel’s illegal and secret nuclear facilities, research and weapons programs.
3- Per Iranian ministry, American and Western countries are involved in Israel’s nuclear, military and missile programs. The Iranian side has gained details and names of Israeli nuclear scientists as well as Western scientists who cooperate with #Israel.
Few lines about the dismissal of former FM and presidential deputy for strategic affairs: Javad Zarif
1- He reigned last night and today explained the reason for his resignation.
But Zarif didn’t resign, he was respectfully dismissed as he was “illegal”
2- Per an Iranian law ratified in 2022, politicians whose wife or children have dual citizenship can’t be appointed at “sensitive posts, specially in the government”.
Zarif’s children are U.S. citizens. Pezeshkian knew it but insisted on keeping him and even bullied the opponents
3- Pezeshkian’s government has so far sent ONE bill to the Majlis with urgency! and that was described as “Zarif bill”: amending the 2022 law and removing the word “children” in order to keep Zarif in place.
Majlis refused the urgency and just this week started re-viewing it.
- Hiking prices of basic goods and commodities
- A dramatic rise in rial-dollar exchange rate (from 1$=50k to 1$=94k) in just 6 months and that was all due to Hemmati’s market policies
3- Reformists and Moderates who threw their support behind Pezeshkian are infuriated for Hemmati’s fall.
That’s while the same people refused to support Hemmati in 2021 presidential election.
They accuse their opponents of playing a political game, which isn’t the case.
1- Pressure is piling up on Pezeshkian, to dismiss his strategic affairs deputy, Javad Zarif, who has been appointed illegally and keeping his seat against the law for 6 months.
Today, dozens of people gathered in Mashhad, calling for his removal.
2- Earlier this week another group of protesters gathered outside presidential office in downtown Tehran, asking Zarif’s dismissal.
3- In the Iranian Majlis, lawmakers have been very critical about Zarif, too. Several criticized his comments at WEF Davos about government’s refusal to enforce the new Hijab law. Others lambasted Zarif’s propaganda claiming “had Saeed Jalili got elected a war would have started”
#IranLebanonTension🧵 1- Iran has so far remained quiet over the events that happened at Beirut’s Rafiq Hariri Airport on Friday when Lebanese interior ministry forces and airport security started searching the luggage, passengers and Iranian diplomats with political passports.
2- Iranian media accuse Saudi news channel Al Hadath of fomenting the tension by spreading fake news that Tehran was sending millions of dollars in cash to Hezbollah via Mahan Airliner.
That prompted the Lebanese to begin searching all passengers and Iranian diplomats.
3- Iranian diplomats reportedly refused to allow the search of their luggage, arguing that they have political immunity.
With tensions rising, large crowds of Hezbollah supporters got notified, began moving towards Beirut airport.
