Editorial Standards

How we report, what we promise, and how to correct us — in plain terms.

Two Lanes, Always Labeled

Reported

When we report, every quote and fact carries its outlet, its date, and a link you can open yourself. If we cannot point to a source, we do not publish it.

Vision (چشم‌انداز)

When we picture the day Iran and Israel cooperate again, we write in the future tense and mark the passage with a small «چشم‌انداز» tag. It is a scenario, never a news report.

No Words in Anyone's Mouth

We quote only what a person actually said or wrote, on the published record. We never invent a sentence, wrap our own paraphrase in quotation marks, or attribute words no one spoke. If it is not in the record, it is not in quotes.

What a Citation Looks Like

Behind every sourced claim you will find the outlet, the publication date, and a link — in this shape:

Outlet name — publication date (link to the source)

Open the link and you land on the exact page the claim came from.

Photographs

Every image is licensed or credited to its owner. Captions say what the picture truly shows — the real place, the real people, the real moment. We never stage, doctor, or re-caption an image to imply something that did not happen.

The Words We Choose

«پیمان کوروش»We call the accords by their Persian name — the name that carries their meaning for our readers.
«جاویدنام»For those killed by the Islamic Republic we say «جاویدنام» — the eternal ones — not the regime's language.
🦁☀️Iran's emblem here is the Lion and Sun, the nation's own symbol — never the Islamic Republic's tricolor.
