Anniversary of Revolution in Syria: When Khamenei’s forces fell

Sednaya Prison: Inside Syria’s House of Horror

The storm of events that swept across Syria for 11 days since November 27 until December 8, 2024, toppled Bashar Al-Assad’s regime and shook the Mullahs in Iran to their core. It has also put forth an important question: what was the principal factor leading to Assad’s rapid fall? This question is rooted in a deeper theoretical discussion concerning the actual strength of the ruling power in Iran. Why did the Iranian regime, in spite of having an army of 100,000 personnel, besides hundreds of military bases in Syria, at the most critical moment of its reign in that country, fail to preserve its most important allied state in the region?  As a response, no one adheres to the theory of foreign powers’ intervention as much as the supreme leader of the clerical regime in Iran, Ali Khamenei.

The Terrorists, the Magazine, and the Manufactured Lies of Tehran

townhall-logo

The Belgian weekly HUMO has plunged to a new journalistic low with its recent platforming of two convicted terrorists, Amir Saadouni and Nasimeh Naami, as if they were confused amateurs caught in some tragic misunderstanding, rather than trained operatives of the Iranian regime’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS). Their interview, published on 24 November 2025, is a masterclass in self-pity, narrative manipulation, and barefaced lies. It is the latest instalment of a propaganda effort designed not by these two criminals, but by their former handler, the so-called diplomat Assadollah Assadi, now safely back in Tehran, where he lectures the world about his innocence while boasting of ideological indoctrination sessions he delivered to fellow inmates in Belgian custody.

Iran’s Regime Escalates Death Sentences Against PMOI Supporters as Execution Spree Exposes Fear of Resistance

The Iranian regime has launched a fresh escalation against political prisoners accused of supporting or being members to the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK). In the span of two days, the judiciary both notified one prisoner of a death sentence and reconfirmed the death sentences of six others—an unmistakable signal that Tehran is accelerating its machinery of political executions. On December 6, 2025, political prisoner Karim Khojasteh was informed of a death sentence at Lakan Prison in Rasht. A 62-year-old industrial machinery engineer and former political prisoner from the 1980s, Khojasteh was arrested on March 13, 2025, at his workshop on the Anzali-Khomam road.

On the occasion of Human Rights Day, the human rights situation in Iran has once again become a central concern for the international community. Four decades of structural and systematic violations of fundamental rights have placed the ruling regime among the few governments in the world that have been condemned in at least 72 United Nations resolutions addressing the human rights situation in the country. This long-standing record of repression has not diminished; on the contrary, it intensified sharply in 2025. In the most recent session of the UN General Assembly (November–December 2025), both the Third Committee and the plenary adopted a new resolution on the human rights situation in Iran.

Suspicious Death of Lawyer Representing Protesters in Iran

The brother of Khosro Alikordi, the deceased attorney, announced that security forces of Iran’s regime have confiscated all sixteen surveillance cameras from his brother’s office.

Why Future Uprisings in Iran Are No Longer a Possibility—They Are an Inevitable Outcome

As the Iranian regime loses its legitimacy, future uprisings threaten the very existence of the regime

The next wave of uprisings in Iran is not a matter of conjecture. It is the predictable product of forces that have accumulated for years across every layer of society and now stand at a point of irreversibility. History shows that when a society enters a revolutionary condition, several dynamics tend to emerge at once. In contemporary Iran, these forces are not only present but have intensified to an unprecedented level, pushing the country toward collective action and large-scale mobilization. Economic collapse has steadily eroded the foundations of daily life, shrinking the horizon of possibility for millions. Persistent inflation, the free fall of the national currency, the closure of viable paths to employment, and a widening class divide have generated a form of discontent that goes far beyond ordinary economic crisis.
