Intelligence minister: US leaving region in disgrace

The US is ignominiously leaving the regional countries under its occupation one by one following admitting consecutive humiliating defeats and despite its deafening fake media campaign, said the Iranian intelligence minister.

Commenting on the occasion, he noted that the day, known domestically as 13th of Aban (the eighth month of the Iranian calendar), is the national day of fighting the global arrogance and a golden page in the glorious history of the revolutionary people of the Islamic Iran.

-- Vienna Talks to Fail Without U.S. Guarantees

Negotiations to revive Iran’s 2015 nuclear agreement will fail unless U.S. President Joe Biden can guarantee that Washington will not again abandon the pact, the head of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said on Wednesday.
“The U.S. President, lacking authority, is not ready to give guarantees. If the current status quo continues, the result of negotiations is clear,” Ali Shamkhani said in a tweet.
Iran is expected to give an exact date this week for the resumption of talks, scheduled for end of November according to Iranian top nuclear negotiator Ali Bagheri-Kani.

-- The Event that Ensured Iran’s Independence & Progress

November 4 or the 13th of the Iranian month of Aban is a Red Letter Day in the history of the Iranian people. It is the anniversary of three important events in the contemporary history of Iran on which plots against Iran and the Iranian people badly boomeranged on the US.
Whenever the harebrained policy-makers in Washington have tried to bare their fangs on this day they received a teeth-smashing blow.
In 1964, on November 4, on the orders of the US, the British-installed Pahlavi regime exiled the Father of the Islamic Revolution to Turkey on the delusion of turning Iran into a permanent American satellite, little knowing that 15 years later Imam Khomeini (RA) who in the meantime had shifted to holy Najaf in Iraq, would return in triumph to Tehran to end once and for all Uncle Sam’s hegemony.
Interestingly, on this day in 1978, three months before the victory of the Islamic Revolution, students at Tehran University Campus calling for return home from exile of their beloved leader, were brutally attacked by the Shah’s forces on the orders of the US, resulting in the martyrdom of several of them.
