When do you guys think internet will be restored in iran?

Rouhani is also widely popular 

yes he does have a lot of individual wealth but also extremely respected in Qom and Najaf. He is also believed to be a front runner to become next supreme leader

What could have been?

Apparently, the author has written a couple of books about Iran and then makes the statement in bold. This is what Western propaganda has been about since 1979, and it's a complete lie.

Quote

A different supreme leader — perhaps Ayatollah Hossein-Ali Montazeri, who had been Khomeini’s heir apparent but was sidelined for his independent thinking — would have thrown his weight behind the vigorous indigenous reform movement that flourished in the late 1990s and 2000s. The Islamic republic could have been steered into serene middle age, abandoning youthful thuggishness, accepting Israel’s right to exist and relaxing the Islamic dress code.

Backed by the entire Western world, Israel's right to exist has never been in doubt. What has been in question is the extent to which it can create a local commonwealth in the region suited to its own needs, at the expense of everyone else. That is what the IRI has hindered.

To see an example of how Israel has subdued local superpowers, you only need to look at Egypt. The country has millions of starving Palestinian Arabs on its doorstep and has been unable to distribute food to them. From Azerbaijan to Somaliland, to the UAE and elsewhere, Israel has been trying to extend its economic and political footprint.

Honestly, it's impressive how a country that size, with a population of 10 million, can dominate over hundreds of millions of muslims from many countries.  It's also embarrassing.  The Muslim leaders are so focused on maintaining their money and power that they'll submit to anyone that will give them more of either.

Or Syria.  Likely more like Syria to be honest.  If the Iranian government falls, it would not surprise me if Israel launches a massive bombing campaign like it did in Syria to destroy the entire country's military.  Syria has virtually no planes, tanks, or naval ships left.  And if Iran falls, literally no country left in the middle east will stand up to Israel.  They will be able to expand borders and take whatever they want at will.

"The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The people will soon summon one another to attack you as people when eating invite others to share their dish. Someone asked: Will that be because of our small numbers at that time? He replied: No, you will be numerous at that time: but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried down by a torrent, and Allah will take fear of you from the breasts of your enemy and last enervation into your hearts. Someone asked: What is wahn (enervation). Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): He replied: Love of the world and dislike of death."

They use their intellect for deceiving and evil deeds. Imam Ali (عليه السلام) demonstrated how Mu'awiyah did exactly the same thing the Jews are doing now and back then:

By Allah,[1] Mu'awiyah is not more cunning than I am, but he deceives and commits evil deeds. Had it not been for the reprehensibility of deceit, I would have been the most cunning of all men. But (the fact is that) every deceit is a sin and every sin is disobedience (of Allah), and every deceitful person will have a banner by which he will be recognised on the Day of Judgement. By Allah, I cannot be made forgetful by strategy, nor can I be overpowered by hardships. - Nahjul Balagha sermon 200

There is important footnote [1] to understand something important:

Al-Kulayni, Usul al-Kafi, II, 336, 338.

People who are ignorant of religion and ethics free from the shackles of religious law and unaware of the conception of punishment and reward find no paucity of excuses and means for the achievement of their objects. They can find ways of success at every stage; but when the dictates of humanity, or Islam, or the limitations imposed by ethics and religious law act as impediments, the chances of devising and finding means become narrow, and the possibility of action becomes restricted. Mu`awiyah's influence and control was the result of these devices and ways in following which he knew no impediment nor any obstacle of what is lawful or unlawful, nor did fear of the Day of Judgement prevent him from acting fearlessly. As al-`Allamah ar-Raghib al-Isfahani while taking account of his characters writes:] "His aim always was to achieve his object whether lawful or unlawful. He did not care for religion nor did he ever think of divine chastisement. Thus, in order to maintain his power he resorted to mis-statements and concoctions, practised all sorts of deceits and contrivances. When he saw that success was not possible without entangling Amir al-mu'minin in war he roused Talhah and az-Zubayr against him. When success could not be achieved by this means he instigated the Syrians and brought about the civil war of Siffin. And when his rebellious position had become known by the killing of `Ammar, he at once duped the people by saying that `Ali was responsible for killing him as he had brought him into the battlefield; and on another occasion he interpreted the words 'rebellious party' occurring in the saying of the Prophet to mean 'avenging party' intending to prove that `Ammar would be killed by the group that would seek revenge of `Uthman's blood, although the next portion of this saying namely 'he will call them towards Paradise while they will call him to Hell,' does not leave any scope for interpretation. When there was no hope of victory even by these cunning means, he contrived to raise the Qur'an on spears, although in his view neither the Qur'an nor its commandments carried any weight.

This is what Zionist Isreal do, Saudi MBS do, Egypt Sisi do, Syrian Jewlani do, UAE the Muslims Zionist do,  Qatar, Malaysia, Indonesia etc. They are all with same characteristic and they manipulate their population with materialism, fear and deceiving.

Well, you need to consider the 'chain of power'.

It starts with the United States' members of Congress displaying Israeli flags outside their offices. Then there's the almost religious supplication to the wailing wall by western politicians.

Once you have that level of allegiance from the world's leading powers, everything else is much easier.

There is also the small matter of recalcitrant Muslim leaders being deposed and assassinated.

Mehdi Hasan had incorrect views about Iran and the resistance before he became so famous. He was heard criticising them at least 20 years ago.

I think he has some Western liberal biases and it's not because of the things you mentioned.

It's probably a little bit of both... incorrect views and he decided to go where the money is... dollar, dollar bill y'all

Looks like the more severe ways of punishing those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) mentioned in the Qur'an – crucifixion and cutting off an arm and the leg from the opposite side – now need to be opted to make an example of these terrorists so that the traitors are taught a lesson.

David Miller writes

He used to be a professor at a prestigious UK university but was hounded out by Zionsist because of his pro-Palestine position.

His position is different that of Varoufakis and other Palestine supporters since Miller understands what the resistance is.

Quote

It's not a coincidence that the recent Mossad terror operation on 8th and 9th January in cities across Iran targeted Basij and military headquarters, as well as police stations and ambulances. It was an intelligence-based and intelligence-gathering operation, as well as being kinetic and psychological.

- The operation was intelligence-based: see, for example, the recent UANI report on Tharallah bases in Tehran, which just happened to be published immediately *after* Mossad cells in Iran had acted on the information therein (on the 8th and 9th January). UANI published on 14th January.

- The operation was for the purpose of intelligence-gathering: it was designed to assess the emergency-readiness of domestic security forces and first responders. Operatives in each site will have been dedicated to observing how long and with what resources emergency services can respond, just as the Zionists have assessed in the early phases of the genocide in Gaza and the war on Lebanon. - The operation was kinetic: it was designed to cause maximum casualties in the shortest time, while also damaging the most essential state resources that would allow for resilience in the imminent Final War (ambulances, police stations, Basij and military posts, municipal authorities).

- It was a psychological warfare operation: while the world is saturated in lies and hysteria about what happened, the Zionists are able to terrify and polarise Iranians; whip up diasporic fascists into frenzies of orgiastic violence and aggressive lobbying for war; and are seeking to normalise the idea that we are in the final days of the Islamic Republic. They want to exhaust and demoralise Iranians, Shi'a, Muslims more generally and anti-imperialists. The idea is that if they can't win you over to their Islamophobic ramblings about 'mullahs', 'the regime' and 'the Ayatollah' (how many leftists even know what an ayatullah is or what level of philosophical training it takes to become one?), they want to give you the impression that the Islamic Republic is so exhausted that it's not worth moving to save it.

The Zionists have done a number on the international left to stop it mobilising like it did against the invasion of Iraq. They are also working hard to create a sense of state collapse among Iranians. Don't buy it. Don't do their job for them. Free Iran from Zionism. Free Iran from counter-revolutionary liberalism. Free Iran from the shadow of American and Zionist bombs. The path is total unity, total rejection of imperialist propaganda and total support for the Islamic Republic in its defence of civilisation against the barbarian Zionist hordes.

no the punishment for Muharb one who poses the government of God, his messenger, his deputy or the scholars for those who believe in guardian ship of the jurist is the right arm, cut off the left leg, cut off to crucify and some time safe, the person also had committed apostasy then behead, the body and or burn it, and scatter the ashes to the four winds and some wild burial

It’s literally at the level of the curse they put on emote in the mummy movies when you wanna talk about a cinematic comparison it’s the worst punishment for the worst of the worst. That’s why many scholars considered the baddie should be burned in the ashes scattered because such a person like an apostate is not even worthy of burial.Although again that’s controversial like whether the female apostate should be executed or not.

Qur’ān 5:33-34

إِنَّمَا جَزَاءُ الَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَيَسْعَوْنَ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَسَادًا أَنْ يُقَتَّلُوا أَوْ يُصَلَّبُوا أَوْ تُقَطَّعَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَأَرْجُلُهُمْ مِنْ خِلَافٍ أَوْ يُنْفَوْا مِنَ الْأَرْضِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ لَهُمْ خِزْيٌ فِي الدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

إِلَّا الَّذِينَ تَابُوا مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَقْدِرُوا عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

Translation:

33) The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive to spread corruption on earth is that they be killed, or crucified, or that their hands and feet be cut off on opposite sides, or that they be banished from the land. That is disgrace for them in this world, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.

34) Except for those who repent before you overpower them—then know that Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Thanks very much for providing this-i dont know why i was attributing it to the Pharaoh or malik .ive read the Quran 15x so far, once a year since my conversion. I dont know how i made this mistake..
