Greetings!
"Latin America is no longer the US backyard," said Ahmad Vahidi, Iranian regime's defense minister to a state-run website,, upon his return to Iran from Bolivia, mocking his international arrest warrant issued for the 1994 bombing of a Jewish centre in Buenos Aires.
"The allegation is so worthless that it is even deemed invalid in a neighboring country," said Vahidi despite an announcement by the Bolivian government that he was told to leave.
There is no doubt that such incidents are completely pre-planned by the Iranian regime. The aim is to punch holes in the tightening grips of international laws and sanctions to render them inefective against the regime. Sanctions are good but only if they are rigorously implemented. The time has come to toughen up on mullahs' regime.
We are delighted to present you with the current issue of Iran Update, a publication of International Solidarity for Democratic Change in Iran (ISDCI).
