The Regime defends Syria because this really defends Iran.  Iran and Syria are almost one.  “Iran Committed to Helping Syria’s Air Defense: Official,” Tasnim, 4-4-23.

Dastardly.  “Chemical Attacks On Schoolgirls Resume In Iran,” Iran International, 4-4-23.

We all have to realize that Iran is not changing its policies regarding women.  “Iran asks universities to ban women not wearing hijab,” CNN, 4-4-23.

“Iran’s Khamenei reaffirms mandatory hijab law, says unveiling ‘forbidden’,” Al Arabiya, 4-4-23.

When the U.S. doesn’t lead, its adversaries fill the void, whether Iran, Russia, China, or a combination.  “Iranian President to visit Saudi Arabia,” Siasat, 4-4-23.

“Signs are that the drama was once again superficial and that the IAEA and the West may have fallen for yet another deception by Tehran.”  See “What’s next after Iran, IAEA cut dramatic deal? – analysis,” Jerusalem Post, 4-3-23.

“Iran Behind Drone That Entered Israel From Syria, IDF Officials Believe,” Haaretz, 4-3-23.

Good article outlining Iran’s drone force, where they are (including in Syria and Lebanon and Russia), and the threat to others.  “Satellite images show Syria strike targeted Hezbollah or Iran drones,” Jerusalem Post, 4-3-23.

The world’s largest people-group without a state has long-been discriminated against by multiple countries, including Iran.  Here we go again.  “Inside story: Iran-Iraq security accord set to up pressure on Iranian Kurds,” Amwaj, 4-3-23.

Iran has a long history against multiple countries of misrepresenting where those countries’ ships and navies are.  I’m quite confident (Iran’s past practice, and as eventually reported in the mass media shows) that much of what Iran has said about this latest incident is inaccurate.  “Iran Warned Off US Navy Aircraft Close to Gulf of Oman: Iranian Media,” VOA, 4-2-23.

“After Iran ‘yogurt attack,’ Raisi says hijab mandated by law,” DW, 4-2-23.  More discrimination against women.

I don’t want to bury this, as there is other 3-28-23 news also.  If this story is to be believed, it means that SArabia has decided to have a civilian nuclear program and will have assistance in such by China, and that it will stomach a civilian nuclear program by Iran.  (proliferation is about to go forward at a dangerous pace in the region).  See “Iran-Saudi deal includes agreement on nuclear program, Yemen,” Kyodo News, 3-28-23.

Iran continues to try to kill ordinary Israelis in third countries.  Terrorism plain and simple, this at a restaurant or synagogue in Athens.  “Mossad helps foil Iranian terror cell planning attacks on Israelis in Greece,” Jerusalem Post, 3-28-23.

“Saudi King to Be Invited to Visit Iran,” Tasnim, 3-28-23.  Certainly not to be a hostage.  Pres. Raisi has been invited to SA, but SA and other sources have not confirmed this claim by Regime-controlled Tasnim.
