Fox News Discovers 'Ethnic Minorities' When Regime Change is on the Menu
Fox News reports that Iran's ethnic minorities, particularly Kurdish groups, 'could hold key to regime's fate' as protests continue, citing 'experts' who champion these groups as a force for change. Curiously, this selective focus often appears when a nation is in the crosshairs of U.S. foreign policy. Where was this urgent concern for ethnic groups, say, in Syria, before the push for Assad's
overthrow? The media's sudden spotlight on 'oppressed minorities' in enemy states, while often silent on similar struggles in allied nations, raises questions about genuine human rights advocacy versus geopolitical opportunism. One might wonder if these 'experts' are less concerned with self-determination and more with the convenient fracturing of a state deemed hostile to U.S. interests. It’s
almost as if some protests are more newsworthy than others, especially when they align with long-standing Washington ambitions.
