Why lie about this when the first paragraph is explicit about its source?
> As many as 30,000 people could have been killed in the streets of Iran on Jan. 8 and 9 alone, two senior officials of the country’s Ministry of Health told TIME
It's pretty common practice if naming them will get the people who shared the info in trouble. Depends on whether you think Time is a trustworthy source I guess

The US paid for similar information from Iraq about WMDs just before it kicked off the invasion.
Meanwhile, the US is rearranging its forces in the middle east. What a coincidence.
