#Hafez, the 14th century poet in #Iran wrote "THESE PREACHERS WHO MAKE SUCH A SHOW Of pulpit piety; Act in a wholly different way, When no one’s there to see.", that was 700 years ago and the same disgusting preachers are still doing "the other things" privately.

Organized religion is the foundation of evil in our world, it was, it is and it always be. I am sure their followers will forgive them if they beg for forgiveness and blame their victims for their crimes.

Once again, US is acting as the air force of ISIS and AlQaeda in Iraq and Syria!


The drones from US coalition sources are bombing "Iran supported militia" as well as Syrian government locations.

Of course no one will see it as wrongful action, occupation of a country 7000 miles away from US borders is perfectly normal and accepted by the "civilized Europe".

Don't you dare comparing it with Russia fighting it's neighboring country, because that will make you a Putin supporting Russian troll..

Saudi Arabian football team that was planned a match with Iranian Sepahan of Isphahan, refused to enter the stadium because of the statue of #IRGC general Qaaemil #Soleimani would not be removed.


The official Twitter/X account of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia claims that the #FIFA rules give them the right and they will not accept the ruling by the referee to give the match 0-3 for Sepahan.

This was the second match between a Saudi and an Iranian football team played in the host countries rather than the 3rd country as they has been playing in the past decade.

Russia could be set to purchase Iranian-made missiles later this month as #Tehran and #Moscow consolidate their increasingly close relationship in the midst of the war in Ukraine.

U.N. missile restrictions expire on October 18, meaning Russia could buy Iranian-made missiles from Tehran in just a few weeks time.

One option perhaps available to the Kremlin could be the Fateh-110 short-range ballistic missile.

Western nations in general and the #USA in particular really need to pay more attention to the rise #authoritarian and its creeping strategy to capture the State. We see and hear the same rhetoric everywhere:

@972mag
"Netanyahu’s foolish statement before his trip, tying his opponents to “the PLO and Iran,” underscores another distinct similarity between him and his Iranian counterpart: the way in which both try to delegitimize popular protests by labeling the protestors as traitors and unpatriotic, who collaborate with hostile elements in order to bring about their countries’ destruction."

Many more are suffering from the never ending duststorm, some schools were forced to cancel their start of the school year.

The climate catastrophe is showing it's horrifying reality in both parts of Iran and showing us what is the future we will see in more places all over the world.
