Iran threatens ‘hostile media’ as ‘potential military targets’

“Media outlets like BBC, Iran International, and Radio Farda are directly connected to [and supported by] Mossad, the CIA, and enemy intelligence organisations,” Shekarchi said.

He said individuals employed by these organisations “can even be included in the list of potential military targets because, in our view, these are not media outlets”.

“These pseudo-media outlets are the source of promoting, advertising, and spreading violence in the world, and they have disrupted the mental wellbeing of humanity,” he said.

Irgendeine Gruppe oder Fraktion hat die StaatsfĂŒhrung des Iran ĂŒbernommen, in deren Interesse nicht der Iran selbst, sondern die FortfĂŒhrung des Krieges auf unabsehbare Zeit steht. Welche Rolle dabei der Sohn des in der ersten Angriffswelle auf den Iran am 28. Februar ermordeten „Obersten FĂŒhrers“ („Supreme Leader“) Ali Khamenei, Mojtaba Khamenei spielt, erscheint völlig unklar. Bisher ist er nicht in der Öffentlichkeit aufgetreten. Ausgerechnet ĂŒber israelische Medien wird gestreut, dies werde so bleiben bis zum unabsehbaren Ende des Krieges. Die formal dem „Obersten FĂŒhrer“ unterstellten Revolutionsgarden agieren gegen die iranischen Interessen. Gewinner des Krieges sind u.a. Ölmagnate, Kriegsproduzenten und der internationale geheimdienstliche Komplex, nicht zuletzt in der Russischen Föderation, sowie der zum Machterhalt auf Krieg und externe Bedrohung angewiesene Machthaber in Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu.

Dabei ist das Interesse der Kriegsgewinnler auf allen Seiten den Westasienkrieg insgesamt noch auszuweiten.

About the West Asia War

You are an idiot. And you‘re not alone with that. Even a small group of people out of the eight billion people on Earth could have stopped the West Asia War; the onslaught in Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Iran and even in Israel. But not a single parliament, lawmaker, NGO, journalist, or whatever-movement on Earth, not even the Good Guys, have been digging into the core of the issue; of what really happened.

And I can prove it.

US considering creating ‚Board of Peace‘ for Ukraine, modeled after plan for Gaza, FT reports

(January 17, 2026)

The potential plan is reportedly modeled off U.S. President Donald Trump‘s plan for the post-war reconstruction of Gaza. The details on a potential Board of Peace for Ukraine were not immediately clear.

Trump initially announced his Gaza Board of Peace on Jan. 15 in a post on Truth Social, signalling the start of the second phase of the U.S.-led plan to establish long-term peace between Israel and Palestine. The board, chaired by Trump, is likely to take temporary charge of Gaza’s administration and reconstruction efforts.

Trump wants nations to pay $1bn to join Gaza ‚Board of Peace‘: report

A draft charter for the group, seen by Bloomberg, establishes Trump as its inaugural chairman, who would have a veto over membership.

The document stipulates that states‘ membership will be limited to three years, unless they “contribute more than USD $1,000,000,000 in cash funds to the Board of Peace within the first year of the Charter’s entry into force“, guaranteeing them permanent membership.

The charter opens by stressing the need for „a more nimble and effective international peace-building body“, adding that lasting peace requires „the courage to depart from … institutions that have too often failed“.

The language has prompted concerns that Trump is seeking to build a rival to the United Nations.
