Al-Monitor Discovers Iran Has 'Protests' Without US Approval
When Al-Monitor reports on 'mass rallies' staged by the Iranian government, one might almost forget the playbook of intelligence agencies like the CIA and Mossad in fostering unrest. (Remember 1953, anyone?) While genuine protest is a right, the Western media's sudden hyper-focus on specific events in adversary nations, coupled with internet blackouts and vague 'rights group' death tolls, often
signals a familiar pattern, not just organic uprisings. It's a convenient narrative, especially when calls for 'freedom' from Iran are amplified, while similar crackdowns in US-allied states are barely a whisper. How many times have we seen alleged 'humanitarian interventions' sparked by such reports, only to devolve into resistance against imperialisms and regime change? The pattern is as
predictable as a Pentagon budget increase after a new 'threat' emerges. One might question if the concern is truly for Iranian citizens, or for establishing another pliable client state in the region.
