Zarif and a fear unconcealed Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif Analysis by PMOI/MEK Iran, Aug. 8, 2019  -  At a press conference on Monday, Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif,  blacklisted by the US  last Wednesday, was the symbol of a regime in disarray, entangled, and desperate, a regime that doesn’t know if the opponent is seeking a regime change or change in behavior. However, one thing is crystal clear for this clerical regime: the Iranian people and the Resistance are undoubtedly seeking an overthrow. “Don’t write that Zarif was angry,” he told reporters during a press conference aired by national TV on Monday. “If I don’t shout, you wouldn’t hear me” he continued to say. “They say that Zarif was angry. See, I’m laughing. I’m not angry at all. I’m not distressed at all… it was the Americans who sanctioned a foreign minister of a country in which they want to negotiate with.

Why Hassan Rouhani must be designated as a terrorist? Aug 8, 2019 Some in the West see Hassan Rouhani as the reformist president of the mullahs' regime as a moderate figure. But Rouhani's actions and history show him to the contrary, proving that he is a terrorist and part of the brutal, fascist rule of the mullahs.

According to Pejmanfar, under the pretext of privatization, the Iran Airtour Airline company, owning airplanes worth at least $600 million, has been sold for $3.4 million.

Iran's state-run media acknowledge large-scale government corruption Corruption is rampant across the board in the Iranian regime Analysis by PMOI/MEK Iran, Aug 7, 2019 -   Once again, clashes between rival factions in the Iranian regime reveal new dimensions of the endemic  corruption  in different levels of government and other ruling institutions. Recently, the regime’s state-run media revealed the wealth of MPs before and after their membership in the Majlis (parliament).

Jahan-e Sanat also acknowledged, “It is impossible to ignore the role of the government in the massive economic corruption. The government is the first to be blamed since it is the main source of  embezzlement  and corruption.” Wh...
