Iran's Lion and the Sun Will End Sunni Tyranny

While the West Surrenders to Islam, Iran Is Fighting to Break Free From It- Geller Reports

”The Islamic Republic is not simply another authoritarian government. For decades, it has exported terrorism, destabilized the region, violated the human rights of its own citizens, and challenged international security … In January 2026 … millions of Iranians answered the call of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi …The Islamic Republic of Iran responded with extraordinary violence… widespread killings, attacks on medical facilities, arrests and an ongoing campaign of executions against perceived opponents.” [Geller Reports]

“Yet what deeply disappointed many Iranians… the lack of… support from much of the democratic world for their struggle.” ” [@Anahit322175]

July 26th, 2026

On July 26th, 2026, a united front of Americans, Israelis, and Iranians marched to Times Square demanding a free and democratic Iran to take its rightful place on the world stage....

.The Lion and Sun Flag served as Iran's official state flag from 1907 until the 1979 Islamic Revolution. It  represents a proud, culturally rich nation standing in defiance of the oppressive, radical theocracy that has held their country hostage for decades.

 

Banned inside Iran after 1979, the Lion an the Sun flag has been widely adopted by the global Iranian diaspora, opposition groups, and protesters as a powerful emblem of secularism, national identity and defiance against the current theocratic regime.

 

"Under the last Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, people had wide cultural and personal freedoms ...… The Shah’s crucial decade from 1965 to 1975  when citizens enjoyed secular lifestyles, and women made big gains.''

 The same was true about Iranian Jews – some 100,000 of the them, who had lived in Iran for over 3,000 years.  In the words of David Menasheri, it was the Jews’ “golden age,” wherein they enjoyed equality with Muslims and in terms of their per capita incomes “they might have been the richest Jewish community in the world. Some of the most innovative and successful industrialists, engineers, architects, and artists were either Jewish or Baha’i… ” [https://www.econlib.org/archives/2015/05/civil_and_econo.html]

Before the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi’s government maintained a close, covert alliance with Israel. Today, his exiled son, Reza Pahlavi, actively cultivates ties with the Israeli government.

 .So long as they did not politically oppose the Shah, Iran was one of the most liberal societies in the Muslim world in terms of cultural and religious tolerance ….   [https://www.econlib.org/archives/2015/05/civil_and_econo.html]

• The Spark for Revolution was the Shah’s  heavy-handed political repression united diverse factions—from leftist students to religious traditionalists—into the massive popular movement that overthrew him in 1979. 

 .Today, Iran is an Islamic Republic characterized by strict religious governance, mandatory public hijab laws, and conservative social structures. 

 

IN 1979, Female students, with their hair down, foolishly celebrated the victory of the Islamic Revolution while holding a portrait of Ayatollah Khomeini  [https://www.instagram.com/vipsaunalondon/].

 The revolution gave them a brutal and oppressive regime, far worse than the Shah’s regime. TODAY, “they are the only people on earth who have lived under a pure, unadulterated Islamic theocracy for decades-and because of that, they are the only people who truly see it for what it is.”

 Iranians are now paying in blood to undo the damage of religious totalitarianism. The world must not remain silent while lives hang in the balance.

 

 Islam is a garment forced upon them at sword-point, not a heritage chosen by their hearts.

 

”Iran is not the land of clerics and fanaticism. It is the land of Zarathustra, the legacy of Cyrus the Great – a civilization built on dignity, wisdom, and leadership long before desert chaos swept in from Arabia.”

”They have lived through the nightmare, tasted the poison and rejected the cure-less disease.”

‘‘ At a time when many governments around the world are still uncertain about how to deal with the terrorist regime ruling Iran, the people of Iran will never forget which countries and governments truly understood them and stood by them during these difficult days.” [@Anahit322175]

is the friendship that history remembers.”

FLASH BACK

.The next link revisits the Iranian Green Movement  protest I covered  in 2009 [with pictures and videos.] So little has changed.

[https://thesilentmajoritynomore.com/2009/07/25/iranian-factions-in-times-square-7-25-09/]

The Green Movement  occurred in the weeks following the highly contested June 12, 2009 presidential election, in which incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was declared the victor.

The official results sparked massive, non-violent demonstrations across Iran as supporters of opposition candidates Mir-Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi claimed the election was rigged.

The movement adopted the color green, and the government responded with widespread arrests, violence, and heavy suppression of dissent. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Back To the Future

In 2026, the situations of the two prominent Iranian reformist and Green Movement leaders diverge following their 15-year incarceration. [1, 2]

• Mehdi Karroubi: Karroubi’s 15-year house arrest was officially lifted. He has made public statements challenging Iran's current leadership and continues to advocate for the release of other political prisoners. [1, 2]

• Mir-Hossein Mousavi: Despite negotiations for their joint release, Mousavi and his wife, Zahra Rahnavard, have remained under house arrest. Mousavi made headlines in early 2026 for strongly condemning the Iranian government's crackdown on protesters. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

++The 40 years WAR++ going on 47 ++

The Iranian People's Revolution has been ongoing since 1979..... anti-government demonstrations began in October 1977, developing into a campaign of civil resistance that included communists, socialists, and Islamists

In addition to declaring the destruction of Israel as a core objective,^[35][36]post-revolutionary Iran aimed to undermine the influence of Sunni leaders in the region by supporting Shi'ite political ascendancy and exporting Khomeinist doctrines abroad.^[37] ... seeking to establish an Iranian-led Shia political order in the Middle East.^[38]

The Islamic Revolution of 1979.

[https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/carterthe-president-who-betrayed-shah-to-khomeini/]

The revolution caused a drastic change in the Iranian culture. Iran was no longer a thriving country. This is part of the reason so many Iranians began to flee to America.^[45]

2026 and IRAN/ PERSIA fights
to be FREE from Terrorism

On July 19, 2026: Iran ruthlessly executed two young men —for helping terrified protesters flee the regime’s brutal security forces during the widespread demonstrations earlier this year.

Erfan Esfandiari, 18, and Gol-Mohammad Mohammadi, a 23-year-old Afghan refugee, were hanged on Sunday for sheltering demonstrators from government bullets and offering them refuge inside their homes, Masih Alinejad, an Iranian-American journalist and activist, wrote for the Free Press, citing local reports.

The pair are among the 59 men arrested together during the January protests in Shahid Alikhani Square in Isfahan, during which Iranian officials say four security force members were killed.

Twelve of them, including Esfandiari and Mohammadi, were sentenced to death. Those dozen were moved into quarantine last week, which likely means the remaining 10 will be executed soon, according to Alinejad. [ NY POST]

STOP TRUMP’S WAR ON IRAN ......Will it ever End

 

STOP TRUMP’S WAR ON IRAN-
An initiative of The ANSWER Coalition

 

On February 28, Donald Trump launched an illegal, unprovoked war on Iran.

"The US and Israeli militaries have since made over 3,000 strikes across the region, killing more than 1,300 Iranians — at least hundreds of them children — while eight American service members have already died and Trump openly admits many more will follow.

Every major war the United States has been forced to end was stopped not by the conscience of politicians but by sustained pressure from ordinary people who refused to accept the killing done in their name .... to expose this war for what it is: an illegal act of aggression waged to enrich oil executives and weapons manufacturers ...

 It’s time to build a massive anti-war movement in the U.S."

Hands off Iran Protests - April 8, 2026

The April 8th actions occurred on the same day the U.S. and Iran agreed to a tentative 14-day ceasefire. Despite the pause in fighting, Iranian leadership and protesters remained highly skeptical, citing fears that the fragile truce could collapse into a wider conflict.  

 

 ...organized by groups like the ANSWER Coalition and the Party for Socialism and Liberation, in major U.S. cities, demonstrators demanded an immediate end to U.S. military engagement and sought diplomatic solutions to prevent a wider regional conflict.

 

From Freedom News TV- April 8, 2026- Times Square

The 1979 revolution that brought Iran to its knees, has nurtured the Marxist/Socialists anarchists for decades. As these videos illuminate: These protest groups did not come to life under the TDS "regime".

Since the start of the Iran War on February 28, 2026, Iran’s “Ghost Fleet” continues active operations—loading cargo, transiting the Strait of Hormuz, and sailing east toward China—though the U.S. blockade may now be restricting exports.

UANI (United Against a Nuclear Iran) tracking shows ongoing illicit maritime activity. An ongoing U.S. blockade initiated on April 13 targets vessels entering and exiting Iranian ports and those carrying sanctioned or contraband oil but does not apply to all Iran-linked ships. U.S. forces focus primarily on large VLCC tankers rather than smaller carriers.

UANI Applauds U.S. Enforcement
Actions on Iran’s Ghost Fleet

(New York, NY) – United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) applauds President Trump and his administration for the latest sanctions designations action targeting entities and vessels involved in the illicit transport of Iranian oil and petrochemicals.

Seven of the eight vessels designated by the U.S. Treasury Department had previously been listed on UANI’s Ghost Armada for evasion of American sanctions.

These vessels include FLORA (IMO 9133070), HAUNCAYO (IMO 9180164), ILL GAP (IMO 9294305), MAYMEI (IMO 9133082), RCELEBRA (IMO 9286073), THEA (IMO 9298284), and YONGAN OCEAN (IMO 9288758).

View UANI’s complete Ghost Armada list here.

One of the most frequently deployed tactics in evading oil sanctions is “flag hopping.” This involves the repeated switching of a ship’s “flag” – which permits legitimate global travel and docking rights – to different national registries. Often accompanied by the formation of new shell and front companies, ownership and name changes, and even alterations to ships’ physical markings, flag-hopping is a blight on legitimate maritime commerce.

Today in the Middle East: Iran fired a barrage of missiles and drones at Kuwait, killing a civilian and injuring dozens of others at the country’s only international airport.

Iran also launched missiles and drones at Bahrain, another U.S. ally in the Gulf region, saying it was targeting the headquarters of the U.S. Fifth Fleet. The attacks further inflamed tensions as negotiations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz have dragged on without a resolution. [NYTimes]

The Best Deal With Iran Is No Deal At All

''It’s rare I cite National Review on the pages of Geller Report, but even a broken clock is right twice a day. Dan McLaughlin is pessimistic about Trump’s ability to get a good deal from Iran’s regime, and suggests a better alternative in his view: no deal at all.''

[https://gellerreport.com/2026/06/the-best-deal-with-iran-is-no-deal-at-all.html/]

''Fanatics don't become rational because they've been pummeled militarily or because they are punished economically.

Neither the bombing they've endured, nor any blockade the U.S. can mount, can end their quest for a nuclear weapon with which to dominate the world and end the current world order. There is only one way to end the threat they pose to western civilization: end them! You can't bargain with them, frighten them or bankrupt them.

The only thing that will work is total decapitation of the regime leadership down to the last man at the national, provincial and local level.''- (lost link)

Inside Rasht's bloody crackdown:
witnesses detail secret removals of bodies

*Rasht is the largest city on Iran's Caspian Sea coast*

Security forces opened fire on protesters, blocked medical aid and secretly removed bodies as they crushed demonstrations in Rasht, northern Iran, during January’s nationwide uprising, eyewitness accounts and documents sent to Iran International show.

Witnesses described security forces shooting at protesters, blocking aid to the wounded, demanding money from families before returning bodies, and pressuring relatives to hold secret burials and avoid public ceremonies.

The new accounts add to an Iran International public documentation campaign that has gathered testimony saying protesters in Rasht were driven into narrow market passages, trapped as fire spread and fired upon by security forces during January’s unrest.

Arab states can no longer pretend
Tehran’s threat is manageable

For decades, a dangerous illusion governed the Persian Gulf. Arab capitals knew the Islamic Republic was hostile. Yet, they believed the threat could be managed.

They treated Tehran’s subversion as a chronic illness, not a fatal one. The Arab states of the Persian Gulf opted for quiet diplomacy. Tehran opted for proxies and intimidation. This tense balance was always a house of cards. That house has collapsed.

[https://www.iranintl.com/en/202606066241?source=share-link]

 Can Trump crack Iran's negotiating playbook?
The Strait of Hormuz represents
another test of Iran's leverage.

For decades, the Islamic Republic has used the threat of disruption in the waterway as one of its most powerful strategic tools. But according to Homayoun Falakshahi, who leads Kpler's crude oil analysis team, that leverage may already be eroding.

Falakshahi said oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen dramatically since the war and the US blockade on Iranian ports. Before the conflict, roughly 30 oil tankers transited the waterway daily. Today, the average is closer to one or two.

More importantly, he argues that the crisis is accelerating efforts by Gulf states to reduce their dependence on the strait altogether. Abu Dhabi is already expanding export capacity through Fujairah on the Gulf of Oman, while other producers are exploring alternative routes.

"Five years from now, that leverage that the Islamic Republic currently has probably will not exist anymore," .... "Iran may be overestimating the long-term value of its position. ... They always overplay their hand,"....

For now, Iran is testing the limits: in Lebanon, in the Persian Gulf, at sea and at the negotiating table.

Trump may have disrupted Tehran's playbook. But whether he has cracked it will depend on whether pressure produces a durable agreement—or simply another pause in a decades-long confrontation.

'NO NUKES For IRAN' Counter-Demo to 'Move-On' at Congresswoman Maloney's Office

On Wednesday, August 26, 2015,  there was a Counter-Demonstration at  Congresswoman Maloney's Office

MoveOn.org had called their minions to over 175 events around the country to pressure our Legislators to vote FOR the VERY BAD Iran Deal.  
.

 Their irrational position that this deal will "prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons" was countered by a group of patriots who went 'nose to nose' with Move On by countering the irrational with these rational positions:

NO DEAL IS BETTER THAN A BAD DEAL!WAR IS NOT THE ALTERNATIVE TO THIS BAD DEAL !From Move-On: "If we can secure enough pro-diplomacy Democrats, we can defend this solid deal and avert a war. And Rep. Maloney is key.Our nation's top nuclear scientists and top-ranking military brass agree: This is a good deal and the best way to keep our nation secure. In Washington, high-paid lobbyists bombard our members of Congress. So at home, they've got to hear from all of us—the folks they're supposed to represent."At first the Counter-Demo was engaged in civilized chat by the Move-on's ,  expressing calm disbelief that anyone would fear giving nukes to Iran.
  

      

This lasted for about fifteen minutes until the novelty wore off.

Then everyone went to their  designated enclosures as the dueling chants began. (this, too, remained low-key.)

 A  Slide show of pictures:

Perhaps their instigators, who love to argue, were downtown at Congressman Nadlers 'support' rally.  Maloney's rally was to CONVINCE  HER that it was a GOOD deal, giving nuclear weapons to the genocidal terrorists in Iran.

Congressman Nadler's rally was to THANK HIM for getting behind Obama's Folly.  No terrorist should be denied nuclear arms just because WE THINK they are terrorists.

  
The chanting was boisterous from the Left. From the Right, it was dedicated but not quite as organized as the Progs-on-the-Left, after all, "chanting is their business". 

 No one expected anyone to change their minds, really, except perhaps Maloney.

After about an hour, the Move-On's handed a petition to Maloney's rep with the HOPE that these 3000 signatures would be the deciding factor, causing Maloney to swing her vote in favor of a NUCLEAR Iran. (didn't happen!)

Rep. Carolyn Maloney  WILL vote to Block President Obama's Iran nuclear deal

Rep. Carolyn Maloney said Wednesday she will vote to block President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran, following heavy pressure from foes and backers of the deal. "I'm against it," Maloney told the Daily News.

Maloney shared her decision on a day that saw dueling demonstrations for and against the pact outside her Manhattan district office.

Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand have split on the deal, as have Maloney and Rep. Jerrold Nadler. Nadler, the only Jewish member of Congress from New York backing the agreement, has faced furious denunciations since announcing his view last week."I never expected the vicious nature of the opposition," Nadler told Jewish Week.

Other Jewish members who oppose the deal, including Reps. Nita Lowey, Steve Israel and Eliot Engel, defended him in a letter this week. Schumer issued a statement calling Nadler "one of the most steadfast supporters of Israel's security."

The Iran Sellout is the test of our generation. TAKE ACTION NOW!!!

 

On a day when NYC's own Carolyn Maloney has come out against the horrific Iranian deal, we must be grateful for people of conscience and a sense of history like her. We thank her enormously! (Please call and thank her at 202-225-7994 or 212-860-0606.)

 PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH IS THE ONLY ANSWER!

 Coming up next On September 1, 2015:

RALLY AND PRESS CONFERENCE AGAINST NUCLEAR IRAN

New Yorkers plan to protest the Iran Deal at Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's Office. US Senators Lindsey Graham and Joe Lieberman, Families of Iranian Terror Victims will Speak at the Rally in front of Senator Gillibrand's office!

 

 - On September 1,  The Stop Iran Rally, the grassroots movement that brought 15,000 people to Times Square in July, will protest against the dangerous deal with Iran at Senator Gillibrand's office in New York City.
.

US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham and retired US Democratic Senator Joe Lieberman will headline the bipartisan rally, where they will deliver a landmark foreign policy speech.

Family members of victims of Iranian terror, including the daughter of an Iranian journalist who died a political prisoner and the brother of a US Navy Seal tortured and killed on TWA Flight 847 by Iranian proxy Hezbollah, will also address the thousands of New Yorkers expected to attend the rally.
.

 The Stop Iran Rally message is simple: "Vote No to a Nuclear Iran."  Simple, "Yes",  UNLESS you are a soc/commie/prog.

 To them, what is simple can be so BIZARRE!

Red China, "The People" & Buying up a America”

August 16, 2015.  Going through some old pictures files from 2011, that I hadn't posted on The Peoples Republic of China, left me asking, "How are things in China since the 1989 murders in Tiananman Square?

"How is that New (Communist) Economic Model working out?, for "The People", and for the U.S. Are we concerned? Should we be?

 

US Abandons Waldorf-Astoria UN Tradition After Chinese-Owned Company Buys Hotel - Breitbart    

 "According to current news reports the Chinese are making major acquisitions in the U. S., even with their stock market concerns. New York's Waldorf Astoria hotel n midtown Manhattan has been sold to a Chinese insurance company company for nearly $2bn... causing some concern amongst the UN as well as the US government." (Worried about 'hacking of emails? Spying. Eavesdropping on phones?)

Part One -  Is There Hope For "the People" in this "Free" Market?
.

With the Chinese people in mind, I revisited more files taken with my circa 2011 cell-phone (the cell-phone that skipped). Files from  June of 2011.

Chinese students (just like those murdered by the Chinese government in 1989) gathered in Times Square for a memorial on the Red Steps of Duffy Square because they CAN'T in Red China. 

Remembering those murdered by the Communist Chinese; massacred in Tian An Men Square on June 4, 1989.

 

1989 was a very Big Year. The Fall of the Berlin Wall - a big fail for The Hammer and Sickle - giving HOPE to so many, including the students in Red China. But, the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) autocratic rule shut their student protests down. Quickly. Murderously.

Whether in 2011 or 2015, the CCP continues to rewrite history, Communist-style. Today. Every day. Denying the massacre at Tiananmen ever

" Six weeks of protests (in 1989)  ended with the Beijing massacre.

 

The exact number of fatalities is still disputed. Some say a few hundred, others say a few thousand."

 ..."the 25th anniversary... 

(and) we're still not allowed to speak. It's despicable. It's because they're guilty and afraid," said activist Zhang Xianling, referring to the Chinese authorities' attempts to contain her dissent ahead of the 25th anniversary in 2014." 

 The Peoples Republic of China has effectively erased this 'embarrassment', their Crimes-Against-Humanity, from the collective consciousness. With government control of the history books and the media:  Obfuscating. Denying the murders in Tiananmen)

 

The Chinese students gathered in Times Square were calling for "FREEDOM of Speech", "Freedom of Conscience", "FREE INTERNET", Freedom from a despotic government, just like the students in 1989.

I couldn't understand the speeches, almost all were in Chinese, but near the end, the man in the wheelchair also spoke and must have been a student in 1989.


As a young man, his legs were probably crushed by a tank in Tiananmen Square.

(You can see in the video that one of the hosts gestures towards  his "legs")

No Google allowed in The Peoples Republic. (Google is where I easily looked for this book, that recorded the TRUTH about Tiananmen.)

A book, "The People’s Republic of Amnesia: Tiananmen Revisited" By Louisa Lim. Oxford University Press; 248 pages; $24.95. Amazon.com, 

ON THE night of June 3rd-4th 1989 the Chinese army unleashed its tanks in the centre of Beijing to crush a protest that had begun seven weeks earlier against the Communist Party’s autocratic rule. Ever since, Chinese officials grow nervous in the run-up to the anniversary of the crackdown..... a new generation of young Chinese has since grown up that knows little of what happened, and appears not to care. The party’s memory-eradication campaign has been so effective that only 15 out of 100 of them correctly identified  the iconic photograph of the man standing in front of a column of tanks ... many young Chinese see today’s prosperity as justification for the crackdown.

 From the mother of a murdered student:

"The students were peacefully protesting on June 4. They loved their country. However the government is choosing to ignore the facts, using lies to cover the truth," said Zhang, who is now 76 years old.

Zhang's 19-year-old son Wang Nan was shot in the head on June 4, 1989, while taking photographs of the clash between students and soldiers on Chang'an Avenue. Almost three decades later, Zhang is still waiting for answers to her son's death.

Part Two - Still No Hope For Some

The Chinese Communist Government has destroyed the lives of millions. Murdered millions. The Tibetans, Falun Gong. The Citizens of Shanghai and Hong Kong.  I have seen them desperately protest the despotic policies of the Communist Chinese Government. Here. In The U.S. (Where they CAN protest) They want Freedom from Tyranny.

The Falun Gung is a post from UN -Friday, 23rd of September, 2011.  Protesting at the very racist Durbin 3 (aka “meeting- of-tyrants”) at the very corrupt U.N.

From their brochure, “A traditional Self-Cultivation Practice to Improve Mind and Body.” The Falun (Dafa) Gong (are always quiet)


 Their peaceful demonstrations are very ….yoga-like…

.
Yet  the Chinese Communist government is imprisoning them; murdering them with the intention of eradicating them.
                                       
 I saw a  FREE Tibet protest on 42nd St (walking from the U.N. to Chinese Consulate)

Bhod Rangzen! (Independence from China)












 "Tibet was a fully functioning and independent state before the Chinese invasion in 1950."

 "Foreign Military Invasion by China is Not “Peaceful Liberation”

               In Conclusion - China's investing in the U.S. (good or bad)

The Chinese take Manhattan: replace Russians as top apartment buyers

For the first time, the Chinese have become the biggest foreign buyers of apartments in Manhattan, real estate brokers estimate, taking the mantle from the Russians - Wealthy Chinese are pouring money into real estate in New York... as they seek safe havens for their cash and also establish a base for their children to get an education in the West. "They're looking for trophy properties,"

Does Chinese Land-Banking Activity Pose A Threat To The US Housing Recovery?

The motivation for purchasing by Chinese buyers appears to be driven by a need to ‘park’ cash in an appreciable asset. Buying land in high quality property markets is akin to keeping savings in a bank, thus ‘land-banking’ is a term often used to describe the activity... the underbelly of China’s high net worth investment industry.

It’s Time to Stop Pretending Beijing Is a Partner 

 

Chinese hackers penetrated the U.S. government’s personnel files in 2014, potentially gaining access not only to the files of nearly every government employee, but also to the sensitive and private information of Americans holding government security clearances. Some believe that American intelligence has been gutted by this invasion. 

China has been hacking US officials’ Gmail for 5 years

Chinese cyber spies have been accessing the private emails of top US national security and trade officials since April 2010, according to an NBC News report on Monday, citing a U.S. intelligence official and top secret document...

the US official... said it was still going on... saying all top national security and trade officials were targeted.

The targeted officials were not publicly identified. (but...) The hacking coincides with Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email account as secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.

Really? In 2010... 2014 ... and we're only just hearing about it?  And now that the Chinese are moving in to the Waldorf-Astoria.... Perhaps we should start solving the China problem.
