Iman Sefati wrote that the mullahs had executed his father. Although he had always said he would never take revenge, feelings of revenge and dark fantasies had arisen in him since the massacre in January. Many Iranians are probably feeling the same way, he wrote. However, the response must be justice rather than retribution. The mullahs should fear the day when the Iranian people will unite and peacefully demand freedom and accountability. The pent-up anger will one day lead to an unstoppable movement, Sefati explained. #Iran #Gerechtigkeit #Freiheit (translated)

Reza Pahlavi Communications published a statement that had reportedly been signed by 133 Iranian political prisoners and activists. In it, the signatories thanked the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom for awarding the Freedom Prize 2026 to the Iranian people and for commissioning Prince Reza Pahlavi to accept it. The signatories wrote that during the protests on January 8 and 9, 2026, people had demanded an end to the Islamic Republic and more freedom. Published reports and estimates indicated tens of thousands of deaths and thousands of arrests. They stated that executions continued and death sentences were imposed in part based on confessions coerced under torture and in unfair trials. The authors referred to Reza Pahlavi as their political representative and supported him in leading a transition to a free, democratic Iran. They wrote that the Iranian people should decide on the future form of government in a free vote. They urged governments and international institutions to prevent executions, release political prisoners, and grant independent observers access to prisons. Additionally, they called for an end to business with the Islamic Republic, for a transparent use of frozen Iranian assets to support the freedom movement, and for better access to secure internet, including through Starlink. The letter was dated October 2026. #Iran #Freiheit #Menschenrechte (translated)

Bernd Kaiser wrote in an ironically toned article that Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi wants to tie the permanent residency right to stricter conditions. According to him, applicants should in the future pay 200,000 yen – a twenty-fold increase in the fee – and prove an income at the level of a normal Japanese household, have their own pension entitlements, demonstrate language skills, and adhere to social rules. Old tax debts could also be a hindrance. Kaiser portrayed the measures as a counter-proposal to a welcoming culture, where immigration costs the local population billions. He wrote that the government is enjoying increasing approval due to a recurring sense of justice and recommended that politicians in Germany take a study trip to Tokyo. At the same time, he criticized that ineffective summits are being lined up here. #Takaichi #Japan #Migration https://t.co/Q5VDYBac27 #Japan #Migration #Einwanderung (translated)

Ahmad Mansour wrote that he had seen a 47-minute film with footage from the terrorists' bodycams. The footage showed children, women, elderly people, and Holocaust survivors who had been cold-bloodedly murdered; moreover, houses with crying children inside had been set on fire. He described the film as the worst thing he had ever had to see and questioned how such acts could be referred to or justified as "liberation struggle." #Frieden #Menschenrechte #Kriegsverbrechen (translated)

Nicole Höchst wrote that Black-Red-Gold provides everyone with a common flag under which they could unite despite their differences; no additional flags are necessary.
