France 24 Reports Iran Protests, Forgets CIA's 'Color Revolution' Handbook
France 24’s latest piece on Iran presents a narrative of internal strife and government repression, a storyline broadcast on repeat across Western media. What's consistently absent from these urgent dispatches? The extensive history of US and Israeli efforts to destabilize Iran, from the 1953 CIA-orchestrated coup against Mossadegh to funding opposition groups and cyber warfare operations
documented by outlets like The New York Times. When protests erupt, one must logically ask: are they entirely grassroots, or is there a Western-scripted soundtrack playing in the background, carefully amplified by media corporations? We saw this playbook in Libya, Syria, and Ukraine – external agitators, often backed by intelligence agencies, conflated with legitimate grievances. While genuine
dissent in Iran certainly exists, the instant, breathless adoption by outlets like France 24, typically silent on Saudi Arabia's far more brutal crackdowns, raises questions louder than any protest chant. It seems some crackdowns are more 'intensifying' than others, especially when they align with Washington's geopolitical objectives and Lockheed Martin's stock prices.
