📕 | The liberation of Amerli is particularly noteworthy. Hadi al-Amiri, Secretary-General of the Badr Organization, spoke about how the Amerli region was freed from ISIS terrorists, stating that the operation succeeded with the support of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF).

Al-Amiri, who was commanding operations against ISIS in northeastern Iraq at the time, emphasized that the Iraqi army and the volunteer forces did not rely on classical methods to liberate Amerli. Instead, they innovated new operational plans.

At the same time, a Western source reported that the strategy to confront ISIS’s advance toward capturing the city was designed by Qassim Soleimani (r), commander of the Quds Force of Iran and Iran’s most important operational leader in the Middle East.

According to the report, Soleimani (r) was personally present in Amerli. Never content to remain in Tehran, he was an operational commander whose success stemmed from his willingness to be physically present during regional crises.

Emil Hakim, an Arab analyst, noted that Soleimani (r) was effective because he was a warrior commander who would enter the battlefield alone and lead from the front.

The report also highlights that Soleimani (r) served as a strategist for Hezbollah in the Battle of al-Qusayr, the most significant urban engagement in the Syrian war. The Amerli battle is considered similarly important, and the Iraqi army described its success there as its greatest achievement. Amerli is located about 100 miles north of Baghdad. This reinforced Tehran’s image as a power capable of halting ISIS advances, a reality that even the United States would eventually have to acknowledge.

The German weekly Der Spiegel also described Soleimani (r) as the most dangerous Iranian commander against ISIS terrorists. The article notes that he is not the type of commander to stay at home while his forces fight on the front lines. He led the Quds Force, the IRGC’s “special operations unit” responsible for extraterritorial operations.

Ultimately, the presence of a military genius like Martyr Soleimani (r) in commanding the ground offensive against ISIS and forming grassroots resistance cells based on the ideology of resistance was Iran’s key strategic advantage against the U.S.-led coalition and its allies in the fight against ISIS. The developments in Kobani also demonstrated the depth of the West’s calculations in countering ISIS.

📕 | Salamah ibn Kuhayl has reported that Ali ibn Abi Talib (A), once, passed by the Holy Prophet (S) next to him ‘A'ishah was sitting. The Holy Prophet (S) then said to ‘A'ishah,
If it pleases you to see the master of the Arabs, you may look at Ali ibn Abi Talib.

‘A'ishah answered, ‘O Allah’s Prophet! Is it not that you are the master of the Arabs?’

The Holy Prophet (S) answered,
I am the leader of the Muslims and the master of the pious ones. But if it pleases you to see the master of the Arabs, you may look at Ali ibn Abi Talib.

🇮🇷 | Hundreds of unwanted foreigners who came to Qom and Mashhad for studies are still residing there after completion without doing any productive and constructive work, and many others can easily enter Qom under the pretext of pilgrimage. Additionally, hundreds of suspicious Turk-Pakistanis-Indians-Arabs enter and carry out whatever they want—from organizing sectarian programs to holding gatherings and running operational channels. It is evident that Iran can never be fully secured under such conditions. Today, there are even reports of riots and tense situations in Qom. It must also be acknowledged that Iran fails in managing many internal issues because of these institutional loopholes.

🇮🇷 | Nearly 400,000 Shiʿa mourners gathered today at the shrine of Haj Qasim Soleimani (r) in Kerman, Iran, to mark the birth anniversary of Imam Ali (A) and the martyrdom anniversary of Haj Qasim Soleimani.

❎ | The constant repetition of news in CIA's OSINTS accounts here and excessive pressure on propaganda lines such as protesters burnt this, chant that against the Islamic government of Iran, or burn statues or posters of martyrs reflects nothing but frustration. Even if, supposedly, 1,000 people are present and all 1,000 are engaged in such acts, it does not matter in any meaningful way. They are rioters, and they are being sent and guided by Mossad to butcher, and provoke. These anti-slogans and symbolic acts carry no serious value. If anyone thinks that such slogans or actions can topple a government, they should reflect on their own countries, because similar chanting and mob actions have not even shaken their regimes that are built on lies and crumbling infrastructure.

📕 | Companion said — Before the ISIS attack on Samarra, I had not had the chance to see Soleimani (r) up close. That changed around mid-June 2014, during the time of mid-Sha’ban, when ISIS attacked Samarra. ISIS intended to attack on the 8th of Sha’ban, occupy the Samarra shrine, and declare the rule of the Levant from the center of the shrine of the Two Imams (Al-Hujjatayn, peace be upon them). They had surrounded all Shi’a forces and threatened that if anyone moved, they would blow up the shrine.

During the second attack on Samarra, the city was under ISIS control and the shrine was besieged. We were stationed inside the shrine of the Two Imams (peace be upon them) and had no connection with the outside. Occasionally, some forces stationed at the Spiker base, the officer training center in Tikrit, were disarmed, released, and sent on foot to the shrine because the path toward Baghdad was blocked. Reports came in that ISIS had taken Spiker base and Mosul, increasing the fear among the forces inside the shrine. Everyone was waiting for news from Soleimani (r) to rescue them. The situation was extremely dangerous, and everyone asked when Soleimani (r) would arrive to save them. I reassured them, saying that Soleimani (r) was present in the region, and there was no need to worry.

About fifteen days after ISIS besieged the shrine of the Two Imams, Soleimani (r) entered the shrine. Before reaching the Samarra shrine, he diverted to Balad, about 50 kilometers away, due to the darkness. A significant event took place in that city because of his presence. Had Soleimani (r) not diverted to Balad that night, it would have been the night of a massacre of the people of Balad by ISIS. The surrounding date palm groves had become ISIS ambush points, and an operation was planned that night, but Soleimani’s presence turned it into a miraculous intervention, the details of which we will not discuss here.

✅ | The insanity, worsening cruelty, and brazenness of the terror empire of lies—the United States—have revealed their real face at a very early stage of the protests inside Iran, alongside their Israeli wing. This exposure clearly shows their direct involvement in what is unfolding.

The bigger and more uncomfortable question for all those who celebrate the United States as the “temple of democracy” is this: can they answer for these actions? Can they explain how this so-called democratic temple, which recently staged the success of Mamdani to cleanse its image in the post-genocide era, is now openly encouraging violence, incitement, and calls to shoot and target people?

The insanity, worsening cruelty, and brazenness of the terror empire of lies, the United States, have revealed their real face at a very early stage of the protests inside Iran, alongside their Israeli wing. This exposure clearly shows their direct involvement in what is unfolding.

The bigger and more uncomfortable question for all those who celebrate the United States as the “temple of democracy” is this: can they answer for these actions? Can they explain how this so-called democratic temple, which recently staged the success of Mamdani to cleanse its image in the post-genocide era, is now openly encouraging violence, incitement, and calls to shoot and target people?

What we are witnessing is not an aberration, but a revelation. The language of “human rights” and “democracy” collapses the moment it conflicts with imperial interests. The United States does not export democracy; it exports instability, weaponized narratives, and controlled chaos. Its record, from coups to sanctions to proxy wars, stands as an unbroken chain of coercion and destruction masquerading as moral leadership.

The media machinery that shields these actions works in perfect synchronization. Violence is renamed “freedom,” armed disruption becomes “civil resistance,” and foreign interference is rebranded as “international concern.” Meanwhile, any state that resists this order is demonized, dehumanized, and presented as a legitimate target. This is not journalism; it is ideological warfare.

Even more damning is the open convergence between Washington and Tel Aviv, two entities bound not by democratic values, but by shared impunity. Genocide is rationalized, occupation is normalized, and terror is selectively condemned or applauded depending on who commits it. The same hands that claim to mourn civilian lives are the ones signing arms deals, issuing threats, and applauding escalation.

This is the architecture of empire. Silence when allies kill, outrage when adversaries resist; sanctions that starve populations, and wars that are sold as humanitarian interventions. Those who still cling to the myth of the United States as a moral compass must confront this reality, not as propaganda, but as lived history written in blood across continents.

The question is no longer whether the mask has slipped. The question is how long its admirers will continue to pretend they cannot see what is now in plain sight.
