Tony Peter 
Excerpts of remarks by Tony Peter Clement - MP from the Conservative Party of Canada
Despite their claims of being more moderate, Iran is firmly controlled by its hardliners. We must continue to oppose the Iranian regime. The facts do not lie. Executions are up by 30 per cent. Iran's state support of terrorism has been widely acknowledged.
The regime has used terrorism as an essential component of its foreign policy and military strategy. 
The regime incites tensions across the Middle East, including in Saudi Arabia, and Yemen, Bahrain, and they are threats to peace and stability in the region. And Iran continues to prop up the murderous Assad regime in Syria and call for destruction and complete elimination of Israel.
Despite claims of moderation the last election did not bring change in Iran. This was clearly demonstrated recently as Iranian students celebrating their graduation were arrested and given 99 lashes for simply attending a coed party.
I am pleased to be counted as a harsh critique in Canada of this brutal regime. In 2012, our conservative government suspended all diplomatic relations with the Islamic Republic. And we must continue to denounce and bring attention to the actions of the Iranian regime. We must not forget the victims of their crimes against their own people and in other countries.
While we are hopeful that Iran lives up to the commitments it has made to the international community, including the P5+1 and the International Atomic Energy Agency, we remain highly skeptical of Iran's real intentions when it comes to its nuclear program. The regime in Tehran has said many things about its nuclear program, but we will judge them by their actions not by their words.
And I want to commend you on your fight against this brutal regime and we in the conservative party of Canada will continue to be your ally in your opposition to it.
Thank you and all the best as you gather to denounce the brutal dictatorship in Iran.

MARYAM RAJAVI: THE IRANIAN REGIME WILL COLLAPSE FOLLOWING ASSAD’S LEAVE FROM POWER
MARYAM RAJAVI

Maryam Rajavi interview with daily Asharq Al-Awsat on Sunday, 17 April 2016

Huda Al Husseini
Paris-Maryam Rajavi, President of the “People’s Mujahedin of Iran” party, said that the Iranian regime is founded on three main pillars for it to prevail.

The three principals are assembling a nuclear deterrent, absolute oppression of the interior and the export of terrorism and extremism to the outside.
Rajavi, in an interview with Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper, said believes that Tehran’s strategy is established on the extent of interference it manages in affairs of other countries, the incitement of war and the exporting of terrorism; however, all the regime’s plots have failed after the Decisive Storm.
“The Iranian regime can be defeated once and for all in Bahrain if it was confronted with a decisive alliance formed by regional countries,” Rajavi said. She mentioned that the Iranian regime is close to drowned in the swamps of the Syrian civil war.

                                                                                  
Rajavi clarified the connection entailing that the Iranian regime would collapse consequentially should Syrian President Bashar al-Assad be toppled, which is why Iran has been stretching out an arm’s length for keeping Assad in rule.
“If Assad falls out of authority in Damascus, then the Iranian regime will evidently follow and collapse in Tehran,”Rajavi said.
“It’s dying,” Rajavi used to express the current state-of-affairs on the Iranian regime; “It has faced defeat in Yemen. Fronts in Syria and Iraq are in effective escalation, the regime has sent 60 thousand Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) soldiers and affiliated militia to fight in Syria,” Rajavi added.
When asked about nuclear danger looming in the horizon, Rajavi explained that the Iranian regime has only “temporarily” lost its ability on manufacturing a nuclear arsenal and will soon resume what it had long planned for.
“The Iranian regime is skilled with the art of keeping to its confidentiality and vagueness of its activities. It hasn’t revealed all its cards, and one must say that the international community was not firm enough, because the international community could have taken away everything from the regime,” Rajavi said.
On the topic of the recent ballistic missile activities and violations, Rajavi clarified that all corners to the Iranian governing system are the same, seeking internal oppression of the people and terrorizing regional nations.
The missile program, according to Rajavi, is an attempt for establishing missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads, as a part of a plan on frightening the region and raising the morals of its supporters.
