US-Iran War: the reforging of the Islamic Republic
For over a month, Israeli and US strikes have targeted every major city and province across Iran. As of 13 April, the Iranian Red Crescent has confirmed 2,076 deaths, overwhelmingly of civilians, but the real figure is much higher as many are buried under rubble. Despite claims by Israel and America that they are only targeting military assets and regime facilities, over 924 schools and 30 universities have been damaged or destroyed.
Iraq-Iran war: the forging of the Islamic Republic
Seeing an opportunity, on 22 September 1980 Saddam Hussein invaded Iran.

Imperialists and Pahlavis - hands off Iran!
The western imperialist vultures are circling the Iranian regime. Donald Trump has already threatened to intervene in Iran three times since the protests began. Meanwhile, the Israeli state has sent ominous messages through Mossad’s Farsi X account, including: “Let's come out to the streets together. The time has come. We are with you. Not just from afar and verbally. We are with you in the field as well”. Western imperialism is the most reactionary force in the world.
Iran: President Ebrahim Raisi is dead - reject imperialist hypocrisy! Death to the Islamic Republic! For a socialist Iran!
The death of President Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash was celebrated by hypocritical imperialist governments and newspapers in the West, who gloated at the end of the ‘Butcher of Tehran’ – while preserving harsh sanctions that subject millions of ordinary Iranians to hardship, and continuing to support Israel’s butchery in Gaza. The communists make no common cause with these characters, who are themselves murderers representing the same vile capitalist system as the Mullahs ruling Iran.
