A chicken hawk named ‘Lady G’ and the innocent lives spent to feed his imperial sadism

The ledger lines of a closeted warmonger owned by Israel and military contractors

TEHRAN — The announcement blamed sudden cardiac arrest on July 11, 2026, but the heart inside Lindsey Graham had withered into an instrument of imperial sadism decades ago.

Behind the new Lebanon framework lies the trap of demographic erasure, endless war

Yemen will ensure the Somaliland scheme becomes a catastrophic trap for Israel

TEHRAN — Any temporary reduction of military hostility by Israel along its northern borders or toward Iran must not be misconstrued as a sign of regional peace. Driven by long-term schemes and intense domestic political crises, including the looming prospect of early Knesset elections, Benjamin Netanyahu remains structurally dependent on a perpetual state of warfare for his political survival.

When the American arsonist wears a rescue uniform in Venezuela

The cynical theater of the U.S. military’s aid in a sanctioned and suffering nation

TEHRAN — The twin earthquakes that struck north-central coastal Venezuela on June 24, registering magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5, brought immense destruction to Caracas and La Guaira.

London Bridge is finally falling down. No fresh sacrifices can save Britain.

TEHRAN — The children’s nursery rhyme has been sung for centuries, its jaunty rhythm masking a foundational horror. “London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down...” What the melody glosses over is the grim medieval folklore of immurement, the belief that a grand structure could only be preserved from collapse if a living soul, often a child, was entombed alive within its masonry.

The little girl from Gaza who became a global reckoning

Hind Rajab’s voice now echoes through every airport lounge and courtroom where Israeli war criminals once felt safe

TEHRAN — For three agonizing hours on January 29, 2024, a five-year-old girl named Hind Rajab was the only living soul in a car filled with the bodies of her family.

10 sobering lessons the war on Iran forced into the open

TEHRAN — Just four months ago, American and Israeli officials and pundits spoke about Iran as if it were a brittle structure waiting to collapse under enough force. They imagined that strikes, assassinations, sanctions, blockades and psychological pressure would force Tehran into surrender. Instead, the war produced the opposite result.

The war on Muharram epitomizes the Bahraini monarchy’s terminal terror

Inside Washington’s meltdown over Iran and the rising chorus of imperial defeat

TEHRAN – When a sparse memorandum of understanding (MOU) is all that remains for Washington after months of imperial aggression, the political theater in the home capital becomes far more instructive than the ink on the paper.

Iran, Hezbollah dictate a new reality as southern Lebanese begin returning home

The new equation proves that the resistance cannot be broken by mass destruction

TEHRAN — The stunning performance of Iran and its allies and marathon diplomatic sessions that produced the Iran-U.S. memorandum of understanding have forced a realignment of the Middle Eastern security architecture.

The ‘roaring lion’ proved to be a whimpering mouse

A deep dive into the admissions of failure echoing across Israeli media and political echelons

TEHRAN — The dust has partly settled on the highly touted campaign of aggression against Iran, leaving the Israeli establishment to grapple with an undeniable reality.

Washington’s monetary terrorism and the gangster diktat imposed on Iraq

TEHRAN — Of all the political fictions staged by Washington over the past two decades, few match the cynicism currently playing out in Baghdad. The United States is orchestrating a fraudulent narrative for a nation whose oil revenues sit in a Manhattan vault, whose airspace has been routinely violated by American and Israeli warplanes, and whose cabinet is subjected to blatant foreign vetoes.

TEHRAN — Over 100 days have passed since the missiles struck. Over 100 days of grief that does not diminish, of mothers holding schoolbooks of their martyred children, of small graves that should never have been dug.

Why Bahrain’s monarchy treats its people as an enemy

TEHRAN — There is an unspoken rule driving the security apparatus inside Manama: a population you deeply distrust can never be governed, only contained. The Al Khalifa monarchy, an absolute Sunni ruling elite dominating a native Shia majority, acts less like a sovereign government and more like an anxious security regime.

The shock absorber doctrine and the ‘Abraham’ suicide pact

NATO grapples with its unraveling under Washington’s predatory hegemony

We can all thrive when the Abu Dhabi syndicate folds

TEHRAN — The Al Nahyan crime family has achieved a grim, singular trifecta: it has alienated its local citizenry, reduced its nine-million-strong migrant workforce to indentured cogs, and transformed a historic mercantile hub into a forward-operating base for the genocidal U.S.-Israeli military-intelligence complex.
