The Morality Police were never about hijab. They are the Islamic Republic’s tool to control women’s bodies and public and private life. Each case of violence reveals the State’s reliance on fear.

Why America Became the Great Satan Anti-Americanism is a product of the mullahs' own ideological and strategic calculus.

If you’d like to learn more about the history of the Islamic Republic’s animosity toward the United States, this short article provides some historical background:

Iran's theocracy has waged a brutal campaign on its own citizens for years. Now that the Woman, Life, Freedom movement has stripped the regime of any legitimacy, the mullahs have had no response but to sharpen their instruments of repression.

My latest piece explores the war the Islamic Republic is waging against its own peopleβ€”one and the same war it has also waged against liberal democracies. 1 war, 2 fronts.
It was submitted a few days before the Israel–Islamic Republic war broke out.

At the Abdorrahman Boroumand Center, we work to document the crimes of the Islamic regime. One day, there shall be justice.

Instead of providing assistance and shelter to the public, what remains of the Iranian authorities is preoccupied with censoring, arresting, and executing innocent citizens.

Zelensky responded to the Russian strike on Pryluky that killed three people. A rescuer lost his wife, daughter, and one-year-old grandson when a Shahed drone hit his own home.

"This is already the 632nd child killed in the war," he said, urging action from the U.S., Europe, and the world.

Violating its citizens' right to life has been a constant in the Islamic Republic's history. The relation between State and citizens is that of God and men. Today 3 people, deprived of due process, were executed. In May 125 victims, in 2025 at least 487 victims.
