“Macron: Iran’s nuclear program leading world down ‘path of no return,” JNS, 1-8-25.

Notice this quote of the day, the Supreme Leader acknowledges the ongoing Shia revolution.  “Iran’s Supreme Leader hits out at advocates of talks with Trump,” Iran International, 1-8-25.  Khamenei said, “America had effectively taken control of this country, but we wrested it away. Their grudge against our nation and revolution is profound.”

“Iran pushes China to let it sell $1.7 billion worth of stranded oil, sources say,” Reuters, 1-8-25.

Interesting how the Leader says the U.S. must be out of Iraq, but he pointedly tells Iraq what to do.  “Khamenei asks Iraq to expel US, urges reinforcement of Iran-backed militants,” Iran International, 1-8-25.
