The American Jewish Congress released a statement on May 8, 2023 on Bashar Al Assad rejoining the Arab League. This is a good time to recall why this is not a good idea after #Assad attended an Arab Summit in #SaudiArabia over the weekend. Read this #thread⬇️/1

The #AmericanJewishCongress is alarmed that efforts are underway to rehabilitate #BasharAssad. Before any normalization, Assad needs to talk to the opposition, eliminate #Iran presence in #Syria, and initiate a political transition in accordance with UNSCR 2254. /2
Sharing our concerns about rehabilitating #BasharAlAssad is more than half of Syria’s population displaced by #Assad’s actions over the past decade, says @JackRosenNYC, President of #AmericanJewishCongress. /3

ایک سیاسی ادارے کی حیثیت سے #امریکی_یہودی_کانگرس ان رپورٹس پر نظر رکھے ہوئے ہے کہ شام کو عرب لیگ میں رکنیت بحال کی جا رہی ہے اور بشار الاسد کی ساکھ کو بحال کیا جا رہا ہے۔ ہم سمجھتے ہیں کہ شام کی عالمی برادری میں بحالی کے عمل سے قبل، اسد کو مخالفین سے بات چیت کا آغاز کرنا چاہئے /2
شام میں ایران کی سرگرمیاں بند ہونی چاہئیں اور اقوام متحدہ سیکورٹی کونسل کی قرارداد 2254 کے مطابق اندرونی سیاسی عمل کا آغاز ہونا چاہئے۔ ان مطالبات میں شام کے پناہ گزین، جو ریاست کی آدھی سے زیادہ کی آبادی ہیں جسے اسد کی فسطائیت کی وجہ سے بے گھر ہونا پڑا، وہ بھی اس بات سےمتفق ہیں۔/3

It's such a big and bold geopolitical move in an extremely sensitive time. Let's wait and see how things will unfold.

BREAKING: Die Europäische Union hat Sanktionen gegen 32 Personen aus dem #Iran und zwei Einrichtungen beschlossen. Vom Tisch ist meinen Informationen zufolge vorerst die Listung der Revolutionsgarde (#IRGC): Es gibt sowohl politischen Widerstand als auch rechtliche Bedenken.
So soll vor allem Frankreich sich gegen die Maßnahme sträuben. Der juristische Dienst des Rates hat außerdem dem Vernehmen nach in einem Rechtsgutachten klargestellt, dass dem #IRGC eine konkrete Terrortat in einem EU-Staat nachgewiesen werden muss, um Rechtssicherheit zu haben.
Der Außenministerrat hat am Montag aber die iranischen Minister für Kultur und für Bildung sowie mehrere Parlamentsabgeordnete auf die EU-Sanktionsliste gesetzt (= Einreiseverbot in die EU-Länder & Einfrieren des in der EU angelegten Vermögens).

U.S. curbs exports to Iranian firms for producing drones for Russia reuters.com/world/us/us-cu… This is long overdue designation of #IRGCterrorist and its entities.
We provided details in our press conference in October 2021 and our report in December 2021 about the #IRGC drone manufacturing and deployment for #Iran regime's terror operations, including the role of the IRGC's Aerospace Force. #IRGCterrorists
Per @NCRIUS report in Dec 2021, the Paravar Pars Company designated today by the Commerce Department, and Sepehr Airport have been placed under the control of the IRGC Aerospace Force since 2005, which uses the airport for training with drones and light aircraft.
#BREAKING: I am hearing unconfirmed reports about an airstrike at #IRGC Proxies in #ABukamal, East of #Syria 10 minutes ago. It is not known who has carried out the airstrike but it is high likely carried-out by #IsraeliAirForce.
#BREAKING: Three massive explosions heard in #Isfahan 30 minutes ago. A building belonging to #Iran's Ministry of Defence was targeted by three explosive laden quadcopters of #Israel Intelligence Organization (#Mossad).
To kill #Iranian dissidents overseas, #IRGC & #Iranian Intelligence recruit criminals from #Azerbaijan Republic. One of them was #PoladOmarov who was involved in failed assassination attempt of #MasihAlinejad in NY, #US. This is moment of his arrest in #Prague, #Czech on 08/01/23
In 2021, #IRGC Quds Force hired an assassin from #Azerbaijan Republic to assassinate several #Israeli businessmen in #Cyprus. Cypriot Police arrested him after #Mossad tipped them. Many ex-members of Azerbaijan Intelligence are involved in crimes & they often get hired by #IRGC.
To avoid any harm to its image, #Azerbaijan government does its best to hide the fact that ex-members of its intelligence organization are being recruited by #Iranian Ministry of Intelligence to kill #Iranian dissidents & #Israeli citizens overseas.
The terror attack at embassy of #Azerbaijan Republic (#Baku) in #Tehran, #Iran is most likely a false flag operation of Azerbaijani Intel service. Authorities of the Baku were fully prepared to release statements for this attack. Even Azerbajani media had received notice before!
This CCTV footage shows inside the #Baku embassy in #Tehran, #Iran, when the 50 year old attacker armed with an AK-47 Assault rifle entered and opened fire at people inside. Head of the security of #Azerbaijan embassy attempted to stop him & he was wounded.
With the heroic action of this man, head of security of the emnbassy of #Azerbaijan Republic (#Baku), the terrorist who is believed to be hired by Azerbaijani Intelligence failed to kill more people inside the embassy in #Tehran, #Iran.

برخلاف آنچه تصور میشود، سپاه پاسداران جمهوری اسلامی، شاخه ای از نیروهای مسلح برای حفظ ایران نیست. همانطور که از نام آن پیداست، فقط برای پاسداری از “نظام سیاسی جمهوری اسلامی “ و جلوگیری از هر گونه جنبش مخالف شکل گرفته است.

از این رو نمیتوان انتظار داشت که سپاه موضع خود را در انقلاب کنونی تغییر دهد و رویه ای مسالمت آمیز پیش رو گیرد. چون با ماهیت شکل گیری این سازمان در تناقض است و با هر گونه عاملی که نظام سیاسی جمهوری اسلامی را به چالش بکشدبه شدید ترین شیوه پاسخ میدهد. چه این عامل کودکی ۱۴ ساله ..

#BREAKING: According to my sources in #Iran, #MahanAir, an #IRGC affiliated airline, received four ex-#Turkish Airlines Airbus A340-311/313 widebody passenger aircraft via #SouthAfrica.They are TC-JDM, TC-JDN, TC-JIH & TC-JII. #Turkey helps #MahanAir to circumvent #US sanctions.
The four A340-311/313s of #Turkish Airlines which were delivered #MahanAir a few minutes ago are not the only aircraft that the airline has sold to the #US sanctioned & #IRGC affiliated airline. The not only have sold more aircraft but are helping MahanAir to get parts for them.
At-least two of these ex-#TurkishAirlines Airbus A340-311/313s aircraft will be delivered to #SyrianAir & #ConViasa, the #Syria & #Venezuela flag carriers, which currently are using four A340s of #MahanAir for passenger flights and also to carry members of #Hezbollah.

Some Iranian protesters celebrated the US victory over #Iran in the #WorldCup. Read today’s update from @criticalthreats and @TheStudyofWar. criticalthreats.org/analysis/iran-… 1/6
