— ☢️🇮🇷 BREAKING: The Iranian parliament has approved articles of association for 'SEPAND', Iran's Organization for Defensive Innovation and Research

'SEPAND' is Iran's agency responsible for developing advanced weaponry, including the alleged research and development of nuclear weapons. The parliament has approved the following articles:

Article 1: 'SEPAND' is established as an advanced weapons research entity, permitted to develop advanced weapons to match the weaponry of the enemy.

Article 2: 'SEPAND' will be an independent weapons research entity as a branch of the armed forces, under the Ministry of Defense, and it is exempt from following regulations on transactions reporting, financial or other audits.

This is a major step.

However, Iran itself denies that SEPAND is in charge of nuclear weapons research, and claims there is no such program.

We'll have to see what happens. But the reality is, everyone knows what SEPAND is for. Nobody will admit it openly.

— 🇺🇸/🇵🇸/🇮🇱 Meanwhile in the United States, a wave of pro-Palestine / anti-Israel protests is sweeping the country's college and university campuses

In several instances, police have been dispatched to the campus grounds, making hundreds of arrests, despite the protests being completely peaceful.

When the young intellectuals start protesting, that's a sign that your regime has utterly failed. Almost every major revolution in history started in the universities.

Some people have asked me, so I will be transparent:

Yes, I support Russia. No, I don't believe Ukraine should exist as a nation state.
