Iran Regime’s Freefalling Economy Published on  21 September 2018 . By Staff Writer There are only six weeks to go until the second round of US sanctions hits Iran, but already the Iranian economy is spiralling and global economic experts believe that the current Regime will likely fall and soon. In August, Iran's Central Bank reported that inflation would hit 60% this year, while the rial has hit record lows against the dollar.

Even refugees from war-torn Afghanistan are preferring to return home, rather than continue on in Iran. Struan Stevenson , the coordinator of Campaign for Iran Change, wrote: “Iran's descent into economic chaos can be traced directly to the ruling clerical regime and its tyrannical leader Khamenei. Their policy of aggressive military expansionism across the ...

Germany companies leading the way in departure of business from Iran Published on  21 September 2018 . By Mahmoud Hakamian U.S. President Donald Trump has made it very clear that he is going to make it very difficult for foreign countries to do business with Iran. Since announcing that the United States was exiting the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, a number of companies have been pulling out of business with Iran for fear of getting caught up in the sanctions that the administration announced would be re-imposed. The administration warned foreign companies to make the most of the winding-down period to avoid risking secondary sanctions. Many large and medium-sized companies in Germany – hundreds of them - are at risk of getting caught in the crosshairs. German exports to Iran grew by 27 percent when the Iran nuclear deal was agreed in 2015. It is estimated that last year German exports to Iran totaled around $4.2 billion. The European Union, eager to keep the nuclear d...

The collapse of the strategic depth of the Iranian regime in Iraq to Syria and Yemen Bahar Mehr My article first published in The Herald Report https://herald.report/collapse-of-strategic-depth-of-iran-regime-iraq-syria-yemen/ One of the indicators of the ruling regime in Iran is the interference in the countries of the region and the issuance of terrorism and the creation of insecurity in these countries with the slogan of the mullahs issued by the issuance of the revolution, which has always been mentioned by the political and military leaders of the regime as the strategic depth of the system. But developments over the past few weeks have been indicative of the collapse of the power of the clerical regime and its "mercenaries" in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen. In the present article, I briefly examine the situation in these three countries and the impact on the regime's presence. Iraq After the burning of the regime's consulate in Basra by...

(AP Photo/Nabil al-Jurani) By  L. Todd Wood  - Washington Times- Wednesday, September 19, 2018 On a recent business trip to  Albania , I was invited to visit the new camp of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of  Iran , or the  Mojahedin-e Khalq  (MEK), still being built about 45 minutes outside of Tirana, on the way to the Albanian coast. I accepted the invitation, although I must admit, I had no idea what to expect upon reaching the sprawling facility which is the new home for approximately 3,200 of the Iranian resistance movement’s personnel, after being forced out of Iraq by violence from the Iranian-backed government. I want to write more about the group and its agenda in the near future, but today I just want to explore w...

West has a chance to bring Iranian regime to heel at UN Security Council DR. MAJID RAFIZADEH September 16, 2018  this Article  the first published in Arab News The this Islamic Republic of Iran is mired in crises, few of which stem from US President Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal and the subsequent renewed economic sanctions. Those actions only serve to help the US, and hopefully the international community as a whole, in putting pressure on Iran’s clerical regime at a time when it is most vulnerable and least likely to conceal the misdeeds that make such pressure necessary. Iran’s national currency, the rial, plumbed new depths this month,  trading  at more than 150,000 to the US dollar. The new figures provoked further economic protests in various Iranian cities, in what has become the status quo in recent months. The Iranian people view the economic catastrophe as part of the broader failings of the Iranian ...
