    Mossad to Tehran: We already know your ‘secret’ war commander. “We know exactly who he is and know him well. Unfortunately, such basic information is hidden from the Iranian people. Please send us your guesses about his name.” By Jerusalem Post Staff. July 1, 2025.

    Former Iranian deputy parliament speaker on Monday criticized Russia for refusing to provide Iran with the S-400 air defense system, despite Tehran supplying drones used in the war in Ukraine. “Russia has given the S-400 air defense system to Turkey and Saudi Arabia, but does not give it to Iran, which has provided it with drone assistance in the war with Ukraine, because it might be used against Israel,” Ali Motahari wrote in a post on X. “This is what the strategic cooperation with Iran that Mr. Putin talks about looks like,” he added.

    John Cusack briefly compared Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler during an interview with comedian Marc Maron. The actor, who is often an outspoken critic of Trump and supported Sen. Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary, appeared during the most recent episode of Maron's “WTF” podcast. During the interview, he discussed his upbringing, acting career and politics. At one point, the conversation turned to the importance of art in a fascist society, and the “High Fidelity” actor, 54, noted that Hitler was against the arts in many ways and drew a similarity to the current presidential administration.

    Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tex mocked John Cusack over a tweet critics claimed was 'anti-Semitic' Monday, asking if the "Hot Tub Time Machine" star was "one of the freshman trio" of Democratic congresswomen who have previously been criticized. In a tweet that has since been deleted, Cusack shared a cartoon, writing, "follow the money." The cartoon shows a hand with a Star of David pushing down a group of people along with a Voltaire quote, "To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize." Shortly after the tweet was deleted, Cusack explained to his...

    Bob Vylan have had their US visas revoked over their "hateful tirade at Glastonbury", a Trump official has said. It comes after the band were dropped by their talent agency following their anti-IDF chant at the music festival. The BBC has said it regrets not pulling the live stream of the "unacceptable" Glastonbury set, with Ofcom saying the broadcaster had "questions to answer". The corporation has faced mounting criticism over airing the performance on Glastonbury's West Holts Stage, during which the rap-punk duo's frontman Bobby Vylan led chants of, "free, free Palestine", and "death, death to the IDF [Israel Defence...

    For the first time in a generation, the United States is exclusively pursuing its vital interests, not the ambitions of its NatSec elites.President Donald Trump’s decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities last week might be a historical turning point. In a single stroke, Trump defanged the world’s leading state sponsor of terror. He radically reshaped the Middle East in favor of the United States’ interests and allies. And he sent an unequivocal message — roughly translated as “FAFO” — to enemies around the world.The War Party’s Consistent Aim For Americans wary of foreign military adventurism, Operation “Midnight Hammer” may have...

    There has been much discussion and conflicting opinions on how much damage the U.S. “Operation Midnight Hammer” strikes did to Iran’s nuclear facilities, especially the underground site Fordow. President Trump and his team claim that the 14 bunker-busting bombs destroyed the place and left it inoperable, while the mainstream media has been working aggressively to say the attacks only set Iran’s nuclear dreams back by a few months. Now there is fresh evidence that the late-night B-2 stealth bomber-led strikes caused plenty of destruction, and the Iranians are already trying to clean it up:NEW FORDOW SATELLITE IMAGESOngoing activity includes cranes,...

    Sharia brings its rules to Europe In an abandoned brewery building in Iserlohn, North-Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, a gang of four, or possibly as many as six, Iranians — apparently some of them had acquired Danish and the others Dutch citizenship – decided to teach another Iranian a lesson. For that Iranian, who had fled from Iran to Germany, where he had been properly admitted as an “asylum seeker,” was an opponent of the regime in Tehran, whereas his four (or six) tormenters were its fanatical supporters. Of course, in applying for admission — some to Denmark and the rest to the...

    In addition to fighting Israel, Iranian authorities are also waging war against suspected spies and infiltrators, asking citizens to report anyone they consider suspicious. This includes alerting authorities if they see people wearing sunglasses at night, wearing hats, reporting stolen license plates, seeing pick-up trucks with covered beds, or observing vans being driven about during odd hours, which the regime says could be signs of undercover enemies to the nation.. In the weeks since Israel launched its attacks on Iran earlier this month, Iran has arrested hundreds of people, who are quickly tried and often executed. The regime has also...
