انقلاب در ایران

 آیا ایران به یک انقلاب احتیاج دارد، و یا رژیم حاکم بر ایران می‌بایست کم‌کم رنگ ایرانی‌ بخود بگیرد و در جامعه تحلیل شود؟ این پرسشی است که بارها توسط سررشته‌داران و اندیشمندان در این رشته تجزیه و تحلیل شده است. مبارزه با چنین رژیمی‌ بسیار دشوار است. چرا که این رژیم ددمنشی است که انقلاب را دزدید، سپس هر کسی‌ را که در ایران به طریقی به رژیم سابق وابسته بود با بیرحمی کشت، و چنانچه دستش به آنها در خارج از ایران می‌رسید، بر سر آنها جایزه گذاشت و آنان را نیز ترور کرد. سپس هر جنبشی را که بوی مخالفت از آن بر می‌آمد در گلو خفه کرد.ا

Iran’s latest internet blackout extends to phones and Starlink

January16, 2026
The Iranian regime’s internet shutdown, initiated on Jan. 8, 2026, has severely diminished the flow of information out of the country. Without internet access, little news about the national protests that flared between Dec. 30, 2025, and Jan. 13, 2026, and the regime’s violent crackdown has reached the world. Many digital rights and internet monitoring groups have assessed the current shutdown to be the most sophisticated and most severe in Iran’s history.

Right Message, Wrong Messengers: A Brief History of Oil and U.S. Empire in Iran

January 14, 2026
Eric Ross
Multiple things can be true at once. The Iranian people are engaged in a legitimate popular struggle against an entrenched political elite that has failed to meet their material needs and has answered demands for freedom and dignity with unconscionable violence and repression. At the same time, the U.S. has no political, legal, or moral basis to intervene in Iran. The dire state of the country, as is true of Venezuela and Cuba, the two other nations targeted by the latest neo-neoconservative regime change enthusiasts blinded by imperial hubris and a fetishization of military power, is in significant part the result of Washington’s own policies.
Since 1979, the U.S. has pursued policies aimed at ensuring the failure of the Iranian Revolution. In the decades that followed, and with particular acceleration under the Trump administration, this effort crystallized into a sanctions regime designed not to promote democracy or human rights but to drive ordinary Iranians into a state of immiseration. This strategy, deployed against governments that Washington unilaterally deems problematic, occasionally for defensible reasons but far more often for refusing to subordinate themselves to U.S. imperial and corporate power, has been linked to an estimated 38 million deaths worldwide since 1971.

جنبش در ایران

می‌گویند بزرگترین، و در واقع تنها خدمتی که جمهوری اسلامی به ایرانیان کرد شناساندن اسلام بود. در نتیجه پس از حدود نیم قرن دزدی و ارتشائ زمامداران این سرزمین به نام اسلام، گروهی‌ به مطالعهٔ تاریخ اسلام و چگونگیِ به وجود آمدنِ این دین پرداختند، و فجایع آن را در کتب تاریخی‌ مشاهده کردند. شاید این باعث شود که اکثر ایرانیان کنجکاو شوند و بهترین تاریخی‌ که در مورد اسلام به نگارش درآمده، یعنی‌ تاریخ طبری، را مطالعه کنند. همچنین، شاید این آغازی باشد که خوی به اسلام و ایراد اصطلاحات اسلامی و عربی‌ نیز از گفته‌ها زدوده شود.ا
