POMPEO I am pleased to release the State Department’s new report detailing the scope of the Iranian regime’s destructive behavior at home and abroad on the eve of the Islamic Revolution’s 40th anniversary. On May 8, 2018, President Donald J. Trump announced his decision to cease U.S. participation in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly referred to as the Iran deal. The Iran deal was proving to be a failed strategic bet that fell short of protecting the American people or our allies from the potential of an Iranian nuclear weapon. The futility of entrusting our long term security to an agreement that will quickly expire was underscored by the recent bombshell that Iran had secretly preserved its past nuclear weapons research after the implementation of the JCPOA.

  • In the Name of Allah Introduction
    In the name of Allah Introduction The expansion, and all forms of developments in various aspects of cultural activities, have a transactional relationship with culture oriented industries, and technological advancements. In modern times, different cultures are heading towards homogeny, whence, the role of cultural industries has become more pronounced. The essence of intercultural relations is based on the axis of cultural industries, the most important element of which is publication; an industry that is always and everywhere readily available, and is the most effective form of delivering a message. The efficient utilization of this tool in cultural relations, between the people and governments, can have progressive, and constructive results, whereas, the improper use of it will result in destruction, delusion, and misunderstanding. The role of translation in cultural interactions does not go unnoticed by authorities. The concept of translation, in relevance to cultural interactions, must be viewed as inclusive of cultural activities, and the effects of pri- 2 vate institutions, and organizations that present new angles and avenues. Thus, cultural local- ization, in the globalization process, can be better understood, and we can recognize why the more culturally localized works are also more global. It has, even, been proven through experi- ence, that, the works of many authors, have become globally renowned, because they had been culturally localized. The project to support the translation of Persian works to other languages, also known as TOP (Translation of Persia), with the objective of outsourcing the task of trans- lation and publication to other countries, has been a progressive step towards breaking free of the formalities of international publication, vis-à-vis the selection of books by this charter, and the starting point in evaluating Persian works of Iran, which will, hopefully, proceed towards perfection.
