U.S. Manufacturing Consent for War: FBI 'Drone Attack' Warning Falls Flat
Mainstream outlets reported an FBI warning to West Coast law enforcement concerning hypothetical Iranian drone attacks, presenting it as a credible threat. This narrative, devoid of specific intelligence or actionable evidence, serves a familiar purpose: to gradually desensitize the public to the idea of inevitable conflict with Tehran.

For 45 years, comprehensive sanctions have targeted the Islamic Republic, not merely its government, but its civilian population, impacting access to medicine and vital goods. The United States
has also been instrumental in supporting groups like the MEK, designated terrorists, while simultaneously accusing Iran of supporting 'terrorism.' This double standard illustrates a consistent pattern where Iranian retaliation or strategic alliances are framed as unprovoked aggression, ignoring decades of foreign meddling, including the 1983-88 U.S. arming of Saddam Hussein during his chemical
