Ali Akbar Velayati, an adviser to the former Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic, said in a post on X that the era of imposing security “from across the oceans” was over and warned that “any mischief will trigger a chain reaction.”
He said security in Hormuz and Malacca was now guaranteed “under the shadow of our power and that of our strategic partners,” and added that security in the Bab al-Mandab was in the hands of “our Ansarallah brothers,” referring to Yemen’s Houthis.
Velayati also took aim at Britain and France, saying that if they were concerned about shipping security, they should “think about the English Channel and the old wound of Gibraltar.” He added: “We appreciate Madrid’s independent and wise positions.”

It's becoming very apparent that an IRGC linked group is actively operating in London.
There have been several attacks this month:
• Jewish Ambulances
• An Iranian monarchist's family car
• An Iranian restaurant
• Three synagogues
• Iran International's offices
These are not random and they are not false flags. They are a pattern. And they are very specifically targeting the regime in Iran's main two enemies: Israel and followers of the Shah.
They see America as a lesser threat and more difficult to hit without consequences. Meanwhile, they are VERY well aware of how lawless London and the Yookay is. That is why they're focusing on Iranian dissidents and Jews in this city.
They assume Sadiq Khan in his incompetence and islamic sympathies will do nothing.
And they are probably right.

TRUMP: IRAN COMMITTED “SERIOUS VIOLATION” — DEAL STILL POSSIBLE
President Trump told ABC that Iran breached the ceasefire, calling it a “serious violation.”
Despite this, he said negotiations are still on track:
“It will happen. One way or another. The easy way or the hard way.”
The remarks signal continued U.S. push for a deal, even as tensions rise on the ground.

Translated from Persian
If you recall, our combat identification officer in Tehran (Mr. Snap!) has, for the past few days, been sounding the alarm bells over the economic distress signals from the regime's foreign suppression forces—like the savage Iraqi Hashd al-Shaabi, and the Diarrhea Brigade (Fatemiyoun)—still clinging to the remnants of the former Mousavi regime, and he's issuing warnings.
-What we deliberately didn't disclose, but knew full well, was the utterly pitiful state of the regime's internal suppression forces, and now that "the mess" has come out into the open, we have no problem at all!
-Dears, know and be aware that the regime's internal forces are in a state of utter economic ruin, and slogans and bluster can no longer keep them on their feet to any significant degree.
-The noteworthy point for you is this: Not only the Diarrhea Brigade, but even the regime's butt-kissing Basijis have caught on that the mercenary pay for the savage Hashd is (was) being paid in dollars.
That's why, for some time now, the Basijis have been indirectly demanding dollars too!
-The problem, however, is that the regime's remnants don't even have hard cash dollars for themselves, and due to the serious disruptions imposed by the U.S. Treasury Department on cryptocurrencies—especially Bitcoin and Tether—and because of the abysmal state of the internet in Iran, where even blood-type SIM cards are easily kept under complete surveillance by U.S. and Israeli security agencies, the remnants of the former Mousavi regime no longer even have cash on hand to give to anyone.
-You might not believe it, but the regime's suppression economy is, in the truest sense of the word, a "bubble" right now.
-The regime's economic situation was already bright red before the 40-day war and the complete U.S. economic and commercial siege on the regime; but now, it's not just highly critical—it's turned into a full-blown catastrophe.
-The moral of the story: When you have no money, you can't fight, because fighting in today's modern world is enormously expensive and exhausting—or, put another way, impossible.

If it weren't for Hezbollah and its weapons, we wouldn't have displaced people.
If it weren't for Hezbollah and its weapons, we wouldn't need reconstruction.”

President Donald Trump said U.S. negotiators will head to Pakistan on Monday for the next round of peace talks with Iran.
“My Representatives are going to Islamabad, Pakistan — They will be there tomorrow evening, for Negotiations,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Sunday.
“We’re offering a very fair and reasonable DEAL, and I hope they take it because, if they don’t, the United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!

The UN still doesn't recognize Hezbollah nor Hamas as terrorist organizations. The UN, for years, has worked hand-in-hand with Hamas within Gaza essentially helping to keep them fed and sustained. Via the "20 point plan" we have allowed surviving Hamas terrorists to re-enter and live within Gaza — assuming they pinky promise not to carry out anymore tomfoolery, of course — whilst also allowing the UN to continue to lead the humanitarian response in Gaza, despite little changes being made to how it operates.
Meanwhile, we have tied ourselves, and future administrations, to the future security and reconstruction of Gaza. We've been promised funding for these efforts from our new allies, with virtually nothing to show for those pledges to this point. Our new group that is supposed to go in and lead the reconstruction efforts hasn't even been able to make it into Gaza yet. We will probably see Lebanon rolled into the agreement in similar scope.

Last night, Shamim Mafi, 44, of Woodland Hills, was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport for trafficking arms on behalf of the government of Iran. She is charged with a violation of 50 U.S.C. § 1705 for brokering the sale of drones, bombs, bomb fuses, and millions of rounds of ammunition manufactured by Iran and sold to Sudan.
If convicted, she faces a statutory maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison.
Mafi is an Iranian national who became a lawful permanent resident of the United States in 2016.
She is expected to make her initial appearance on Monday afternoon in U.S. District Court in downtown L.A. She is presumed innocent until proven guilty in court.
