Legitimate question - why am I not seeing this in the news? This is horrifying but where is the coverage?

The “Iranians that you work with” in the west are highly self-selecting. They’re like Cubans in Florida or Vietnamese—people who fled in the aftermath of the revolution and are extremely antagonistic towards the regime. My family left Bangladesh the year after the dictator made Islam the official religion. My dad is apoplectic about the Islamist parties being unbanned recently after the government was overthrown. By…
How come they blame carter instead of REAGAN over this shit? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980_October_Surprise_theory

What makes you think the CIA/Mossad fundamentally operate differently today? Oh btw, since we're on the topic of false flags: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavon_Affair
It matters less than before. The US is no longer the dominant force it used to be in the 1950s, and the UK (which was part of the anti-Mossadegh plot) is completely gone from the world stage. The world of 2026 cannot be reduced to a CIA/Mossad theatre where everyone else is a NPC and must suffer whatever they cook up there. Other people have agency and do their things. EU, India, China, Iran, Russia, Qatar, all influ…

The question is, how can you be sure anything you see in the (controlled) news is not another instance of covert plots, false flags, and psyops [0]? How, precisely how? [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_operations_(Unit...
How can I be sure that you aren't a bot or vice versa?
Nobody can, that I know of.

I've read a ton of philosophy and something I don't really understand is that one nation killing another is more immoral than when a nation does this to their own domestic population. Sure you will get some nay-sayers who say 'a life is a life', if moral particles existed, they might be correct. But for some reason, humanity doesn't seem to care as much. What makes intra-state politics more acceptable to use violence…
I share your opinion. There's nothing worse than a State killing its own citizens, the ones the state had pledged to protect. But actually, the largest mass killings in history have been always performed by States against their own citizens and not by enemy states: - Great Chinese Famine (CCP): 20-30 million dead. - Holocaust (NSP): 6 million - Holodomor (USSR): 3-5 million - Congo mass killings (Colonial Regime + Pr…
Most dead Jews were not German citizens and neither were the Poles who died.

I am almost sure that every single person who plotted the 1953 coup is dead. Maybe one of them survives somewhere aged 103 and no longer knowing their name. Should Macron be judged by what Napoleon III. (or for that matter, I.) did? Surely there is some kind of continuity between those French heads of state, they even fly the some colors and sit in the same palace.

Did you think that running a dictatorship is a stable endeavor? No foreign intervention even needed when you build your house on sand.

#339I really don’t understand why in the West there is nobody in the streets to protest but there was so many people for Palestine… Where are the people?

#340The source is certainly unreliable, a quick scan of the wiki sources give you that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_International But does the number even matter? Whether its 4000 or 35000 the conduct has been unacceptable. The real question is the solution, is reporting like this designed to be used as the backdrop to foreign intervention? How many people will be killed then? "one death is a tragedy, a million is…
The invasion of Iran by the US is a fantasy. They'd much rather fantasize about invading Canada.
