Broken feet, ripped-out hair and now a death sentence: the fate of twin sisters jailed over Iran protests

The twins were 19 and still in high school when they were taken from their beds in the dead of night by masked men later identified as being sent by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.

After four months of desperately seeking news from hospitals and state institutions, their mother, Marzieh Nourmohammadi, finally learned their fate. Taraneh and Romina Rahimi had been seized over their decision to join millions on the streets of Iranian cities during the January protests against the regime. The twins were unrecognisable by the time of their mother’s prison visit in May.

Blundering Canadian officials gave millions of taxpayer cash to son of Iranian vice president who helped Islamic Republic develop MISSILES

Canadian officials shelled out millions of dollars worth of contracts to the son of a former Iranian vice president even as they were investigating allegations he helped develop missile systems for the Islamic Republic.

Mohammad Reza Ghafouri Fard, 45, founded two companies in Alberta, Edmonton under the name ‘Sal Ghafouri’ that have received more than $2 million Canadian dollars [$1,446,370] in federal contracts, including from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Department of National Defense, Global News reports.

He was even reportedly part of an official Canadian trade mission to Latin America, received a federal business grant and was invited to ‘propose legislation’ to the Alberta government.

World Famous Canada!

I think the Mullahs are running the government.

Iran’s Covert Weapons Supply Chain Runs Through Canada and China—Fueled by Trade-Based Money Laundering: Analysis

OTTAWA – An Iranian immigrant living in Vancouver spent more than five years buying American missile-testing equipment and drone cameras for Iran’s Department of Defense, routing the goods and the payments through front companies in China. A Seattle court sentenced him to 42 months in prison in 2018. He was arrested not by Canadian police but by an American agent, at the border crossing in Blaine, Washington.

Poilievre invites Iran’s exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi to visit Canada

OTTAWA – Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has invited the former crown prince of Iran, who is pitching himself as the best option to lead Iran back to democracy, to visit Canada.

Poilievre told a crowd at an event in British Columbia on Saturday that in addition to extending the invitation, he would also be meeting virtually with Reza Pahlavi, whose father ruled over the country as Shah until the 1979 Islamic Revolution pushed the family into exile.

Cuba’s Hidden Proxy Network: The War Against America

The world knows all about Iran’s proxies; Hezbollah, Houthis, Hamas, and other groups which conduct terrorism and other military operations throughout the Middle East for the IRGC. But there is less awareness of an even more vast and sophisticated proxy network managed by Iran’s ally and possible mentor which lies far closer to U.S. shores.

Canada says IRGC welcome

Canada says immigration applications are assessed individually in response to cases of Iranians who completed mandatory military service with the Revolutionary Guards receiving letters warning they could be deemed inadmissible on security grounds.

In a statement to Iran International, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) said “membership in the IRGC and service in the IRGC are distinct considerations” for assessing inadmissibility.

The UN and EU’s Horrific Appeasement of the Iranian Regime’s Tyranny, Betrayal of the Iranian People

The number of executions in Iran has surged dramatically in 2026, accompanied by widespread human rights violations: torture, sham trials, and the systematic repression of dissent.

Iranian authorities have carried out hundreds of executions so far, and it is only August. There were more than 100 in June, with the total climbing past 420 by late July, according to Iran Human Rights and other monitors. Recently a gallows was erected in Isfahan’s public square. Many of these executions appear to be politically motivated, targeting participants in the January 2026 protests that challenged the regime.

On the Iran War, NATO Chief Agrees With Trump — The Media Buried the Lede

Why do so many Americans oppose the war against Iran?

The biggest reason is that they do not believe Iran was close to obtaining a nuclear weapon. If Iran was nowhere near a bomb, President Donald Trump’s decision to use military force looks unnecessary, even reckless. But if Iran was close, as Trump claims, the debate changes dramatically.

That is why NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte’s recent assessment should have been a major news story.

Iranian Regime’s Insatiable Drive to Wipe Out Jews, Christians, Minorities: World Turns a Blind Eye

Despite sanctions and military setbacks, Tehran’s ideological commitment to the destruction of Israel, and targeting Jewish, Christian, Baha’i and other worldwide minority communities, remains a core pillar of its foreign policy and proxy strategies.

In Iran, far from being “just” rhetoric, this antagonism is daily seen in a pattern of terrorist operations, including plots against synagogues, Jewish sites, Christians, Baha’i and other “infidels,” which exposes the regime’s transnational reach.

When, however, anyone says that Iran is doing this, the so-called international community and United Nations are completely silent.

Noah Shack: Iran’s terror-crime nexus is a growing threat to Canadians

On July 18, 1994, a suicide bomber drove an explosives-laden truck into the Jewish community centre in Buenos Aires, killing 85 people and injuring hundreds in the deadliest terror attack in Argentina’s history.

In the devastating aftermath, Argentina’s Jewish community — the largest in South America — was left questioning its safety and future in their country. Deepening that sense of fear was the fact that those responsible remained unidentified for more than a decade. Prosecutors ultimately identified the suicide bomber as a 21-year-old Lebanese member of Hezbollah and concluded that the attack had been directed by the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The Islamic Republic of Iran’s War on Christians

A new 2026 annual report, “Scapegoats: Rights Violations Against Christians in Iran,” published by Article18 in partnership with Open Doors, Christian Solidarity Worldwide and Middle East Concern, sheds an alarming light on the persecutions of Christians in Iran.

According to the report, at least 21 Christians have received custodial sentences in 2025 related to their alleged involvement in the distribution of Bibles in Iran, in addition to other forms of punishment, such as fines, exile, and social deprivation.

Iran may have ‘directed’ recent attacks in Canada, intelligence report says

Iran’s intelligence services may be behind recent attacks in Canada, according to a top-secret government report obtained by Global News.

The threat assessment said it was a “realistic possibility” that Iran had used local criminal networks to target Canada’s Jewish community.

The report said “actors who may be directed by Iranian Intelligence Services” were also suspected of threats to the Israeli and Iranian communities and interests.

As U.S.-Iranian relations thaw, Ottawa must remember the Islamic regime is not our friend

Last week, the United States and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding meant to end the war that began in February. It extends a ceasefire, reopens the Strait of Hormuz and, most consequentially, clears the way for Iran to resume oil sales. The nuclear questions that started the war are intended to be addressed over the next two months. What Tehran gets now is a reprieve, a free hand to crush dissent at home, a nuclear program left intact for now and money. What Tehran will do with that money should concern us all.
