IRAN -Dempsey: Iran may use sanction relief for its proxies

General Martin Dempsey

General Martin Dempsey, the U.S.’s most senior military officer, 

said on Tuesday that if a nuclear deal between the Iranian regime and the world powers was reached that led to sanctions relief for the regime, it would likely spend newfound resources on its military and its surrogate groups in the region.

Dempsey told a small group of reporters in Jerusalem that 

Washington would work to mitigate Iran-related risks, with

 or without a deal.

As the June 31 deadline for an agreement on Iran’s nuclear programs draws closer, there are no signs that Tehran is ready accept the terms of the international community, writes Alejo Vidal-Quadras. it’s high time for Western leaders to support the democratic opposition and permanently unseat the mullahs from power, he argues.

Alejo Vidal-Quadras was Vice-President of European Parliament from 1999-2014. He currently chairs the Brussels-based International Committee in Search of Justice (ISJ).

The Iranian Foreign Ministry is fuming this week as 220 members of the European Parliament released a statement supporting the democratic opposition to the regime and demanding that a possible international accord over Iran’s illicit nuclear program include provisions for inspections of its military sites.

If you’re paying attention to the Middle East today, you’re paying attention to Iran. The Islamic Republic has its hand in a number of regional conflicts, in addition to its long-standing support for Middle Eastern terrorist groups. And of course this comes at a time when Iran could also be on the verge of potentially inking an agreement with six world powers which would give it relief from sanctions related to its work on nuclear weapons technology.

MARJAN

The fourth sequel in the Al Arabiya TV program “Hellish Era” was devoted to an interview with Ms. Marjan, a movie actor and a singer.

Ms. Marjan: My name is Marjan. I was a movie actor and a singer before the [1979] revolution. After the revolution, all such activities were banned as Khomeini’s Islamic regime came to power. This regime was against artists and was adamantly against women. Music was foreign to it and it considered music religiously forbidden. Thus musical instruments were banned as well. Anyone who had musical instruments at home, such as guitar, violin and piano, it would be confiscated.
