You are missing the point. I'm sure Mossad etc is on the ground. I wish them luck. But that's not the driving force for the 100s of thousands of protestors on the ground willing to stand against the Mullahs thugs.

They live under a theocratic boot heel and are struggling to get out. They can use all the support they can get.

Sure, just ignore the sanctions applied against the people of Iran by western colonialist countries for decades upon decades. You think that hasn’t had an impact on society there? When my wife and I were planning our wedding here in the US 26 years ago, I spoke with someone in the state department then about allowing her family members to attend our wedding in the USA. They were very clear that, they would not allow that as the goal was to impose US restrictions on the citizens of Iran rather than just the government.

Imagine economic sanctions for much more than 30 years, western spy agencies actively engaged in espionage and injury against your country. What would your economy be like?

Is it any wonder nations are engaged in BRICS to escape American global hegemony?

  • UN votes across decades have officially labeled Zionism as racism. International courts, from the ICJ to the ICC, despite massive pressure (& sanctions) have officially labeled their actions as genocidal & worthy of prosecution.

    (the above are facts, not opinions)

    Yet your comment gets downvoted. And others get to say how Israel is a harmonious place for Muslims/Palestinians/Arabs ... and their posts are ... untouched.

    Even George Orwell didn't envisage this ...

    (and its a sad commentary on those who run this site)

    • Palestinians certainly aren’t in the occupied territories. Nor are Christians. Israel is an apartheid state which legalizes taking farms, homes and whatever else by “settlers “ using violence to steal and murder.
