“Prominent Iranian figure threatens to destroy Qatar,” Iran International, 12-14-24. “A former member of Iran’s nuclear negotiating team and a frequent voice on international media defending Tehran’s policies has said Qatar should be bombed if Iran’s nuclear facilities are targeted. Mohammad Marandi, speaking about a possible US attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, tweeted, “Slight problem. The US Al Udeid air base in is tiny Qatar. In case of aggression, the natural gas facilities and infrastructure in Qatar will be totally destroyed. Hence, there will be no natural gas from Doha. Hence, there will be no Qatar. Things won’t end there either…”
“Could Iran’s new hijab law bring down Khamenei?,” JPost, 12-14-24. Not by itself.
This is old news now. Would have been great if the media would have highlighted this dark-themed supply route regularly to the world. “Hezbollah Loses Supply Route Through Syria, in Blow to It and Iran,” NYT, 12-14-24.
“Iran sentences an Iranian-American journalist to 10 years in prison,” 12-14-24.
“Iran postpones implementation of new hijab law following backlash,” Iran International, 12-14-24. Surprising. But the Regime is feeling the heat from its people. “The Islamic Republic has officially postponed the implementation of the controversial hijab law that imposes severe penalties on women and girls who defy veiling requirements, following huge backlash from the public and the international community. Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, in a letter to the parliament on Saturday, requested that the process of implementing the Hijab and Chastity law be halted so that an amended bill can be submitted to the parliament by the government, said a member of the Parliament’s presiding board. The ‘Law on Protecting the Family through the Promotion of the Culture of Chastity and Hijab,’ comprising 74 articles, was set to take effect yesterday. It imposes severe penalties on women and girls who defy veiling requirements, including exorbitant fines, prison terms, flogging, and even death penalty.”
