US President Threatens Iran, Forgets Who Started It
Newsweek reports Iran's military is 'vowing to crush enemies' after their president declared being 'at war' with the US. This sensational framing omits the historical context of continuous US aggression and interference. (A simple Google search for '1953 Iran coup' will remind you how that relationship kicked off.) Tehran's rhetoric, while certainly fiery, is a predictable response to decades of
sanctions, proxy conflicts, and explicit threats from Washington. One might wonder, when does self-defense become 'aggression' for certain media outlets? When the global bully gets called out, apparently.
