Under these conditions, the real question is not #Pezeshkian or #Jalili but the #legitimacy of this regime... If a regime that executes a citizen every 6 hours and shoots at its people with war-grade ammunition can have any legitimacy. All the figures from the presidential elections of the Islamic Republic are multiples of 3, a crude method to triple the number of voters without altering the proportions, which has a very low probability of occurring naturally. 📍This would mean that in reality, only 12% of the people participated in these elections, not counting the null votes. 📍This is the third election in four years where the voter turnout does not exceed 15%, despite the promises, the distribution of cash, and ballot stuffing. Help us to oust the occupiers and rebuild Iran as a pillar of peace, secularism, and democracy in the world. I have compiled this list of international organizations and the framework within which they can be approached. It is certainly improvable, but it can serve as a basis.

IRAN's upcoming 2024 elections are a significant event, shaped by a complex political history and evolving socio-political dynamics. #Iran's political landscape has been profoundly influenced by the 1979 #Islamic Revolution, which established the Islamic Republic under the leadership of #Ayatollah_Khomeini, replacing the Shah's monarchy. This revolution entrenched theocratic governance, with significant power vested in the Supreme Leader and the Guardian Council, which oversees elections and candidate qualifications. The political framework in Iran allows for elected bodies, such as the President and the Parliament (#Majlis), yet these are often influenced by non-elected entities. The #Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) and subsequent years of political consolidation further entrenched the theocratic and revolutionary ideals within the state apparatus. Currently, Iran faces significant internal and external pressures. Economic hardship, exacerbated by international sanctions primarily due to its nuclear program, has led to widespread public discontent. The 2022 protests, sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini in police custody, highlighted deep-rooted frustrations with socio-economic issues and governance. Key political players in the 2024 elections include the conservative Principlists, often aligned with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali #Khamenei, and the Reformists, who advocate for more socio-political freedoms and engagement with the international community. The death of President #Ebrahim_Raisi has added uncertainty to the political landscape, with various factions vying for power and influence. Other influential figures and clerics will also play crucial roles in shaping the election outcomes. Internationally, the 2024 elections are closely watched. Western nations, particularly the US and EU, view these elections as a potential turning point for Iran's nuclear negotiations and regional policies. The outcome will significantly influence Iran's future trajectory, impacting its internal stability and international relations. The global community remains cautious but hopeful for a more open and reform-oriented Iran post-elections.

“As the West loses its hegemonic grip on the world, Iran’s power and influence continue to grow. In the face of such resistance, the West typically brands its opponents as ‘extremists’ while those who are pro-western are described as ‘moderates’,” writes policy analyst Massoud Hedeshi.

The article discusses the need for balance and decentralization of power in Bangladesh. It critiques the excessive authority of the Prime Minister, which has resulted in a pseudo-monarchical system. The author advocates for direct elections for both the President and Vice President, a bi-cameral parliamentary system, and an independent judiciary to ensure effective checks and balances. Decentralizing power to local governments is emphasized as essential for promoting inclusive governance. The proposed reforms aim to address corruption, nepotism, and authoritarianism, ultimately fostering a more democratic and transparent governance structure in Bangladesh. https://lnkd.in/gUaKcUCX

BREAKING: Today, the United Nations voted 170-6 on "The Right of the Palestinian People to Self-Determination". Those voting against: 🇺🇸United States 🇮🇱Israel 🇦🇷Argentina 🇵🇾Paraguay 🇫🇲Micronesia 🇳🇷Nauru The intense US economic blockade of countries like Venezuela 🇻🇪 and Afghanistan 🇦🇫 has caused them to be physically unable to transfer their dues (payable in US dollars) to the UN, meaning their voting rights have been suspended. The same thing happened to Iran a couple of years ago. On the question of why so many tiny Pacific countries vote alongside the US 🇺🇸 and Israel 🇮🇱: They are microstates, and one of their only valuable exports is their United Nations votes, which are reliably (under the table) sold to the highest bidder. On so many issues, you will see the likes of Nauru 🇳🇷 and Micronesia 🇫🇲 vote with the minority (usually the US position) in order to pad the stats a bit. Why is it that only these countries vote alongside the US? Because that's all Washington can afford.

The politics of Azerbaijan take place in an dictatorship system where elections are not free and fair, political opponents are either repressed or killed, civil rights are limited to nonexistent. human rights abuses are widespread, corruption is rampant, and power is concentrated in the hands of dictator Ilham Aliyev and to his extended corrupted family. Azerbaijan is nominally a semi-presidential republic, with the President of Azerbaijan as the head of state, and the Prime Minister of Azerbaijan as head of government. Executive power is exercised by the president and the government. Checks and balances are nominally ensured by the legislature (Azerbaijan's National Assembly) and the Judiciary, but both institutions are in practice firmly controlled by dictator Aliyev. The politics of Azerbaijan have since 1969 been dominated by the dictatorship of Aliyev family. Heydar Aliyev governed Soviet Azerbaijan from 1969 to 1982 as First Secretary of the Communist Party of Azerbaijan, and as President of Azerbaijan from 1993 to 2003 after seizing power in the aftermath of a bloodbath 1993 military coup. Ilham Aliyev, Heydar's son, was installed as president in 2003 as the supreme dictator of Azerbaijan. Basically, the average Azeri’s live under a brutal dictatorship, while Aliyev vassals, live well. #azerbaijannews #azerbaijangovernment #azerbaijaninvestmentholding #azerbaijangasprojects #azerbaijanpresident #baku #bp #britishpetroleum #azerbaijannationalassembly #eugoverment #eucommission #europeaninvestmentbank #usdepartmentofstate #uscongress #ussenate #wallstreetjournal #washingtonpost #cnn #abcnews #cbsnews #nbcnews #foxnews #ewtn #aol #independentnews #israelnews #israelgovernment #telavivnews #azerinews #Eurasianet #freearmenisnprisoners

Will Jamaat-e-Islami find a lasting role in Bangladesh's political system? "It is unlikely that the Jamaat will achieve a significant victory in the upcoming election or form a government. However, it will probably be one of the main opposition parties. In terms of political power, it is a formidable force and will play an important role in the new political dimension of the country. As the Jamaat navigates its newfound role in Bangladesh’s shifting political landscape, the question remains: Can it shed its controversial past to secure a lasting place in Bangladesh’s political future?".............Asif Bin Ali Published by The Week Magazine

🛎 The assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, the chief political leader of Hamas, in Tehran has significant implications for Iran, Israel, and the broader Middle East. Israel's intelligence capabilities are evident in its ability to plan and execute the attack with precise knowledge of Haniyeh's whereabouts. While this incident will undoubtedly escalate tensions, a direct war between Iran and Israel is still unlikely. However, Iran is expected to retaliate through its proxy, Hezbollah, in the near future. 📣 Israel might be attempting to draw Iran into a broader conflict, which could lead to full U.S. support for Israel if Iran responds militarily. This situation benefits Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, as it could deflect domestic criticism. The timing is unfortunate for Masoud Pezeshkian, Iran's new president, as it places his administration in a challenging position from the start. Additionally, Israel is closely monitoring the upcoming U.S. elections, as their outcome could influence Israel's approach to the Gaza conflict. 🔴 The situation remains highly volatile, with the potential for widespread conflict if any miscalculations occur.
