Majority in US House of Representatives backs resolution calling for Regime Change in Iran

— A majority of members of the US House of Representatives have declared their support for a bipartisan resolution calling for a nuclear-free Iran and regime change in the country.

The Organization of Iranian-American Communities, a group opposed to the regime in Tehran, hosted a meeting in the Capitol to announce that 222 members of the 435-member House now back the resolution, which was introduced on Feb. 7.

It supports the establishment of a secular Iranian republic and condemns human rights violations by the Iranian government."

BRUSSELS — The European Union is working on a law that would force nongovernmental groups, consultancies and academic institutions to disclose any non-EU funding as part of a crackdown on foreign influence in the bloc, three sources confirmed to POLITICO.

The planned legislation, which is in very early stages, echoes similar laws in Australia and the United States. In the U.S., the Foreign Agents Registration Act has required lobbyists working on behalf of foreign governments to register with the federal government since 1938.

Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio:

- Brazil, which is the largest country in the Western Hemisphere to the south of us, has concluded a trade agreement with China, according to which they decided to trade from now on in their national currencies. Bypassing the dollar. These countries are creating a parallel economy, completely independent of the United States. In just five years, we will no longer be able to dictate anything to anyone with sanctions, because by that time there will be so many countries trading with their own money, and not the dollar, that we simply cannot impose sanctions on all of them.

Mouanes: The current system of selling oil and transferring 100 percent of those revenues to the US Federal Bank – under the pretext of protecting Iraqi funds – is unsustainable. We need to develop real economic foundations to advance our country and break free from the dollar’s hegemony.

It is clear that Iraq is economically dominated by the US, and our government does not truly control or have access to its own money. This is evident in the new banking restrictions on Iraqi dollar bank accounts, any and all banking transactions in dollars, and America’s imposition of an electronic platform to register all Iraqi currency exchanges.

Vremena se promijenila. Nekad su mogli nekome zaprijetiti samo jednom i ovaj pjeva kao Jandroković US veleposlaniku. Danas kad Amerikanci pokazuju najveću silu ikada to više ne mogu.
Nikad se više stvari neće vratiti na staro, to je otišlo nepovratno. Samo ne znam koji mali narod će krvavo platiti ovu američku dugu pauzu između ratovanja. Uskoro će jedan narod uništiti potpuno u "mirovnoj vojnoj intervenciji".

Blah...blah...sere mi se....

The United States would like to develop rules for the use of artificial intelligence in the military sphere together with Russia and China. This was stated by US Deputy Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security Bonnie Jenkins.

“We think these are issues that all countries should think about, that [they] should take into account, in terms of how they view the use of AI in the military. So we are not excluding anyone at this stage. We really want to see what [other] countries think about this ," Jenkins said.

The waiting game: How the US sabotages Lebanon’s energy security
In an exclusive interview with The Cradle, Lebanon's Energy Minister Walid Fayyad addresses the country's energy shortage dilemma: Receive Iranian oil and risk US sanctions, or wait indefinitely for a purposely delayed US-backed initiative.

“For almost 30 years, Lebanese authorities have failed to properly manage the state-run electricity company, Électricité du Liban (EDL), resulting in widespread blackouts. The decades of unsustainable policies and fundamental neglect, the result of elite capture of state resources, alleged corruption, and vested interests caused the sector to completely collapse in 2021 amid the ongoing economic crisis, leaving the country without power through most of the day.” – Human Rights Watch, March 2023

Over 600 days have passed since US Ambassador to Beirut, Dorothy Shea, pledged to deliver a much-needed solution for Lebanon’s dire electricity crisis, which has forced most of the population to rely on costly private generators for their basic living needs.

The ambassador’s phone offer came on 19 August, 2021, mere hours after Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah broke the US-led siege on Lebanon by announcing the imminent arrival of Iranian diesel to the country.

Shea’s response to Nasrallah was to announce an ambitious, World Bank-funded initiative that called for the transport of Egyptian gas and Jordanian electricity – via Syrian territory – to Lebanon.

But as is all too often the case with US promises, the White House now refuses to provide the four Arab countries with sanctions waivers. Washington claims that helping Lebanon receive energy via Syrian territory will undermine US Caesar Act sanctions against Syria.
