🧑‍⚖️ Crackdown on Shi'a Muslims and anti-Zionists in the west in parallel to the war on Iran?

At the beginning of the war, Basira Press Editor-in-Chief Ali Salaam was de-banked in the US. He used a smaller credit union (a lesser evil within the US financial system compared to commercial banks) and they informed him in early March that they are closing down his accounts due to being "too high risk" for their institution to handle.

Mr. Salaam is a US citizen and is meticulous in not violating laws such as sanctions. It is only illegal to fund and/or join/recruit for proscribed groups — it is not illegal to take a moral, intellectual, artistic, academic, etc. position in favor of proscribed groups. It is not illegal to publish academic and artistic material about proscribed groups. It's not illegal to wake up to the Zionist media's lies and have a realistic and ethically-sound view of world issues. None of what he has done in life is illegal, even according to the unjust, hypocritical laws of the Satanic powers.

Have any Epstein clients been deemed "high risk" and had their accounts shut down? Les Wexner, Leon Black, and Howard Lutnick? Or should people who oppose the Epstein class be punished by having the basic logistical ability to earn a living and support their families be shut down?

Mr. Salaam is being punished for taking a similar stance as the prophets Abraham, Moses, John the Baptist, Jesus, and Muhammad, peace be upon them all, for standing against tyranny, bloodshed, and corruption. This is an inseparable part of the Shi'a faith and the faith of anyone who wishes to live according to the prophetic traditions.

It is possible other Shi'a Muslims have faced similar scrutiny and arbitrary punishment since the start of the aggression against Iran. They should speak up and seek legal action against the US government and private corporations (who are influenced by the US government behind-the-scenes to do things like shut down bank/credit union accounts).

Basira Press was also targeted in a report by an irrelevant think tank that exists only to provide investigations to intelligence agencies. This report was also issued following the onset of the war.

It attempted to claim that several activist groups are secretly controlled by Iran because *gasp* they retweet Press TV sometimes.

They then tried to accuse some independent media outlets of being controlled by Iran. Their proof? Those outlets have writers who also write for "Press TV, Al Mayadeen, and Basira Press." In that order. They lumped us in next to two media outlets which are much more popular than our humble outlet. Additionally, we are independent and not state-funded.

They are using our name to accuse others of being controlled by Iran, even though we are independent and not state-affiliated. What are we, the IRGC overlords of other independent outlets?

They want to imply that we are agents of the Iranian state. We are agents of the heavenly kingdom of God, you Zionist numbskulls. That is much greater than an earthly nation-state. Wilayat (guardianship with governing authority) is something that is beyond this physical realm and isn't confined to a material entity like a nation-state. We also serve God and His representatives out of conviction and faith, not for the sake of money. We have no ties to the Iranian nation-state, but we and all other believing Shi'a Muslims do have ties to the wilayat of God, the Prophet Muhammad (S), and his successors, the Imams of the Ahlul Bayt (a), in that we are their humble servants who seek to complete their mission of establishing divine rule on earth and eliminating Satanic despots.

🇮🇷 / 🇵🇸 | Condolence Message from Sayyid Abbas Araghchi to Khalil al-Hayya on the Martyrdom of Azzam al-Hayya, His Son, in a Terrorist Act by the Zionist Regime:

In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

“Do not think of those who are killed in the way of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision.”

Respected brother, Dr. Khalil al-Hayya, member of the leadership council of the Islamic Resistance Movement of Palestine (Hamas),

With deep sorrow and regret, I received the news of the martyrdom of Mr. Azzam al-Hayya, your son, in a terrorist attack carried out by the criminal Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip. I extend my condolences and solidarity to you on this great loss.

The Zionist regime, in its false assumption, believes that by committing such crimes it can weaken the struggle of the great and resilient Palestinian nation against occupation. However, it is unaware that such actions not only do not weaken the resolve of the people and resistance leaders, but rather strengthen their determination to continue the path of resistance until the realization of the ideal of the liberation of Palestine and noble Jerusalem.

I pray to Allah Almighty for vast mercy and forgiveness for that noble martyr and for your other martyred children, and I ask Allah for patience and health for you and your respected family.

📌 | Trump only ruined Fujairah and returned!

Without any prior judgment, it is necessary to briefly and clearly review the developments of the past two to three days.

First, Trump suddenly announced an attempt to forcibly open the Strait of Hormuz without Iran’s consent.

On the following day, U.S. military announced its intention to escort vessels through the strait under military protection in order to undermine Iran’s strategic will.

With the initiation of this approach, U.S. destroyers entered the operational phase. However, the majority of commercial vessels, aware of the nature of American posturing, refrained from movement and refused to place themselves in a vulnerable position. At the same time, one or two vessels, due to miscalculation, attempted passage and were subsequently damaged or destroyed.

In parallel, the United Arab Emirates claimed that Fujairah had been targeted through missile and drone attacks. The precise origin of these alleged strikes remained unclear, but the port area of Fujairah was reported to be on fire.

As these developments unfolded, the vessels that attempted violation were disabled, Fujairah was engulfed in fire, and the U.S. destroyers became operationally stalled within the passage corridor. The situation reached a point where the deployed forces themselves appeared uncertain regarding the purpose and outcome of their presence.

Following this, Trump swiftly announced the failure of the operation. Despite this declaration, maritime assets had already suffered losses, Fujairah remained in a state of damage, and the destroyers were left without operational achievement in the field.

Subsequently, the decision was taken to withdraw the deployed destroyers. However, during the return phase, reports indicated that they were exposed to pressure from Iranian naval forces, further complicating their withdrawal.

The outcome of the sequence of events can be described as follows. The destroyers were deployed, became operationally ineffective, and ultimately withdrew. The Strait of Hormuz remained under Iranian strategic control. Only limited maritime assets suffered destruction, and Fujairah, according to Emirati reports, experienced significant damage.

At the strategic level, Washington is attempting to isolate Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz from broader regional negotiations. It seeks to condition any opening of the strait on the lifting of the naval pressure measures it has imposed. Accordingly, all maritime actions taken by the United States must be understood within this broader framework of coercive leverage.

From Tehran’s perspective, however, there will be no compromise over established strategic gains. Iran is not prepared to dismantle its achieved positions or accept arrangements that would prolong the crisis under managed escalation, as Washington attempts to do in other regional files. This includes rejecting any attempt to treat the Strait of Hormuz as a separable bargaining chip outside the broader security equation.

It is confirmed now that the Americans and their allies did not have proper framework to implement control in the case of the Hormuz chokepoint. Their only actions were reckless attempts, which came back and hit them like a boomerang.
