U.S. Considers Provoking Coup in Iran, Again
📰 THE STORY: Al-Monitor, citing Reuters, reports that Donald Trump's administration considered targeted strikes and actions against Iran's security forces and leaders, aiming to 'inspire' protests and achieve 'regime change,' despite skepticism from Israeli and Arab officials about air power alone. 🔍 WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU: Historical Context: This isn't inspiration; it's a rerun. In 1953,
the CIA openly admitted to orchestrating a coup to overthrow Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, installing the Shah and setting the stage for the 1979 revolution. For over two decades, Israeli PM Netanyahu has repeatedly claimed Iran is 'months away' from a nuclear weapon since 2002 – a claim used to justify endless saber-rattling and sanctions that devastate ordinary
Iranians. Double Standard: When Western-backed 'protests' erupt in countries targeted for regime change like Iran or Venezuela, they are hailed as movements for 'freedom and democracy.' When legitimate mass protests erupt in countries allied with the West, like France (pension reforms) or the US (George Floyd), they are quickly framed as 'riots' requiring police suppression or martial law. The
death toll for any such 'crackdown' in Iran is immediately inflated to 'thousands' by unverified opposition sources, while the 40,000+ documented deaths in the Gaza genocide are routinely minimized by the same media as 'conflict casualties.' Follow the Money: War with Iran would mean a bonanza for the military-industrial complex. Defense stocks soared by 23% after the October 7th attacks. Lobbying
