In the past five centuries, modern ideological movements — including communism, socialism, liberalism, and even today’s emphasis on capitalism — have all failed to bring humanity true security, spiritual peace, or relief from existential anxiety.

Capitulation refers to an agreement signed between a powerful country and a weaker one, under which the citizens of the powerful country (such as advisors, diplomats, and military personnel) are granted judicial immunity within the territory of the weaker country. In other words, if they commit a crime, the courts of the host country do not have the right to try them, and the case must instead be dealt with in the courts of their own country.

It is not at all surprising that no powerful organization or institution has taken responsibility for pursuing and overseeing the precise implementation of the Seventh Development Plan. In fact, many laws in the Islamic Republic are written merely to exist as laws, not to be implemented. There is a fundamental lack of coordination among the various institutions involved—such as the executive and employment sectors—and responsibilities remain ambiguous.

The 13th of Aban 1358 (November 4, 1979) marks the day when the Students Following the Line of the Imam—a name suggested and approved by Ahmad Agha—climbed the walls of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, forced the armed guards inside to surrender, and initiated the 444-day hostage crisis involving American embassy staff, who were accused of espionage.

Essentially, liquidity (the volume of money and quasi-money in society) is the driving engine of inflation and price increases.

Excessive reliance on academic degrees as the main criterion of competence has become one of the most prominent features of the educational culture, labor market, and even the infiltration of unqualified individuals into governing structures in many Third World countries.

The Sharm El-Sheikh summit is a farcical display of the end of two years of bombing defenseless, innocent people in Gaza.

Iran’s invitation to the Sharm el-Sheikh summit can be analyzed from several perspectives, and it does not seem that this invitation was anything more than a symbolic gesture.

Sharm el-Sheikh is located at the southernmost tip of the Sinai Peninsula, where the continents of Asia and Africa meet. The city overlooks the Strait of Tiran, the entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba, which is a vital waterway for international shipping. This geographical position has given it both strategic and historical significance.
