When I was detained in Tehran in 1999 in the ayatollahs' prison, I could never have imagined that one could also be imprisoned in the West for the same reason. The day before yesterday, it was announced in the United States that they have a comprehensive plan to fight…

شادباش به همه قربانیان سرکوب و تروریسم، شادباش به بازماندگان و خانوادههای هزاران جانباخته رژیم تروریست اسلامی در ایران، خاورمیانه و سراسر جهان، شادباش به ملت بزرگ ایران سرانجام پس از چندین سال تلاش پیگیر، قطعنامه پیشنهادیم در مورد شناسایی سپاه پاسداران به عنوان یک سازمان…

Good news! My resolution to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of the Iranian regime as a terrorist organization was approved today in the Belgian Parliament. It’s shameful that the PVDA (Communist Party) abstained. The extreme left and Islamism are two…

Today is an important day. In the Middle East, various developments are unfolding at a rapid pace. My resolution, which I submitted in 2024 to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of the Iranian regime as a terrorist organization, is on the agenda of today's…

Met de commissie Buitenlandse Zaken hadden we vandaag de kans om met zes speciale gezanten van de FOD Buitenlandse Zaken gedachten uit te wisselen over verschillende thema’s. We hadden het onder andere over energie, asiel en migratie, het Midden Oosten, de Sahel regio en…



Eerste Belgische Griffon-voertuigen zijn een feit. Vandaag rolde de allereerste Griffon van de band bij MOL CY in Staden. Een nieuwe generatie voertuigen, met Belgische eindafwerking en wapensystemen van FN Herstal. En tevens goed voor onze industrie, werkgelegenheid en…

As someone who was born in an autocracy and grew up there until I was 25, I know better than anyone what a privilege it is to live in a democracy. Democracy is a valuable thing. And even though often it’s a difficult exercise and the outcome is not always what you would wish…




Ashura this year, in London. With the flags of the Islamic Republic of Iran and pictures of Khamenei. While as children in Iran we were forced to chant "Death to England!" every day before entering the classroom, we see that the flag and photo of these Islamists are being…
Zorgwekkend. Een Ashura rouwmanifestatie in Brussel … Ashura, ter nagedachtenis van imam Hussein, de kleinzoon van de profeet Mohammed, zie je vandaag de dag in bijna alle grote steden in Europa, de VS en Canada. Elke jaar zie je het toenemen. Met telkens nog grotere…
Happy independence day to my American friends. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 We celebrate our western freedoms and the strong bonds to protect and preserve them. #Happy4thofJuly

Good news! Our resolution to place the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the European terrorist list has been approved unanimously by the Foreign Affairs Committee. Belgium is one of the first countries in Europe to take this explicit step. We also demand the unconditional…

Goed nieuws! Onze resolutie om de Islamitische Revolutionaire Garde op de Europese terreurlijst te plaatsen, is goedgekeurd in de commissie buitenlandse zaken. België is een van de eerste landen in Europa die expliciet deze stap zet. We vragen ook de onvoorwaardelijke en…

Turkish authorities have detained three cartoonists over a satirical drawing published by weekly magazine Leman. There are people in Turkey who are also angry and taking to the streets because they believe that the cartoon insults the prophet Mohammed. They are also praying…

The regime in Iran is now commanding Muslims all over the world to murder president Trump and Netanyahu. The highest religious authority in Shia islam, Makarem Shirazi, has labeled them as "mohareb" (enemies of God) and has issued a fatwa. Fatwas are valid forever. Is this…


When I grew up in Iran after the Islamic takeover, I never thought that the "collective Islamic prayer" would make it to New York. Praying in large groups on the street isn’t innocent. I know this from experience in Iran and from the Friday prayers of Islamists. It’s a…
Deze week in ‘t Pallieterke: “Met Iraanse ayatollahs niet dezelfde fout maken als met Hitler.” “Iran kan een unieke beschaving worden in het Midden-Oosten.” @PALNWS

'We hebben geen andere keuze dan te investeren in onze veiligheid. Als stichtend lid van het sterkste defensiebondsgenootschap ooit, herstellen we zo ook onze betrouwbaarheid. We doen dat niet voor president Trump, maar voor vrede en onze veiligheid', zegt Kamerlid @SafaiDarya.👇
