Iran Regime’s Failure to Circumvent U.S. Sanctions by Selling Oil to Private Buyers By  Mahmoud Hakamian Earlier this year, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that the United States would be exiting the 2015 nuclear deal.

In such circumstances, we need to the turnabout in the past failed policies and adopt a firm policy such as  re-imposing sanctions , as well as supporting what the Iranian people ask for.  Th...

Moreover because of children’s immaturity, vulnerability, impulsiveness, and capacity for rehabilitation they should never face the execution, no matter how severe the crime of which they have been convicted of. Instead of that, the principle of maximizing the Juvenile offenders’ potential to be able to reintegrate into the society should be enforced by the law. Killing Juvenile during the Iran-Iraq War During the war, promising them that their sins will be forgiven, hundreds of thousands of juveniles were sent the battlefield with a plastic “key to paradise” hung around their necks, using them as cannon fodder and as human minesweepers.
