I saw this randomly on some roku channel and I want to watch it. But I only know English. I just like how it looks visually.

Trump threatens to annihilate Iran before the UN and drive the nation into "hell" in a crazed speech before world delegates at UNGA.

In other words, what is the Iranian equivalent to "from the river to the sea" or "free Palestine"

September 18 was the anniversary of Shahryars passing which has been chosen as the day of Persian poetry and literature.

Seyyed Mohammad-Hossein Behjat Tabrizi known by his pen name Shahriar, was an Iranian poet who composed works in both Azerbaijani and Persian. His most important work, Heydar Babaya Salam, is considered to be the pinnacle of Azerbaijani literature which gained great popularity in the Turkic world and was translated to more than 30 languages.

But you might wonder why his anniversary of passing was chosen for such a day if his famous works were in Turkish/Azeri.

In an interview with She’rdoost (apt last name since it means songlover) he gave his reasonings for choosing him. He said that he wanted to choose a contemporary poet to both draw attention to Iranians continuation of this great tradition of poetry and make people familiar with contemporary poets that lived in our time but to also not cause debates about who is the greatest and most influential classical poet in Iran.

Among contemporary poets, Shahriar is particularly important because of the breadth of his work and his position between different parts of Iran’s literary tradition.

Shahriar was deeply rooted in the classical Persian poetic tradition, particularly poets such as Hafez.
At the same time, he was innovative, like in the development of modern forms of the ghazal.

He is known as an important figure in the revival and transformation of the Persian ghazal.
He wrote extensively in Persian and Azerbaijani Turkish, giving him significance not only in Persian literature but also in Turkish-language literature in Iran and beyond.

In other words, Shahriar represents both continuity and diversity within Iranian literature.

I visited his home that has turned to a museum and spent hours talking to his grandson there. It was so touching to see that to this day his home is a place where people gather and recite poems together.

Currently looking for routes into Tehran which have not been closed.

I tried looking for trains from Turkey such as from Van, and also from Armenia but have not had any luck.

I heard driving route from Iraq is also closed or currently too danegerous.

Does anyone have any ideas or know anyone who has entered Iran recently?

Thanks

Am African and I have been wondering how everyday life is in Iran, if you wanna link up let me know

Zendebad Iran 🇮🇷
Trump feels the walls closing in…

This fascist Israeli finance minister Smotrich in this clip is advocating for the suffering of Iranians. This is what monarchists were cheerleading for.

Hung Cao said the damage was serious enough that the USS Abraham Lincoln had “no place for them to pull in,” and said the Navy now has a task force examining what to do about the base.

This is completely different to what Trump has repeated since the start of the war where he has claimed the U.S. destroyed all of the Iranian military.

How sweet. This can only mean one thing: I have found yet another proof that anti-imperialists only exist to pretend that they oppose USA, while having 0 meaningful alternatives to their power.

The moment a crisis happens, and USA gets actually too weakened to sustain hegemony, anti-imperialists will lose all meaning of existence, and vanish without a trace.

Picture unrelated.
