  • this does not justify a military intervention in the country.

    But it does. That’s why these lies are done. To justify the military intervention.

    This is similar to the 40 beheaded babies and Hamas raped women hoaxes. Western propaganda makes up false stories because the real stories aren’t sobby enough (and the US is basically doing worse to black people on a daily basis). Then when the truth eventually comes out people have already internalized the propaganda.

    Sure Iran has its problems but there’s a reason why writers need to make up stories to really get the demonization going. Recently we had the US-backed terrorist attacks in Iran during the protests where Iranian think tanks made up crazier and crazier numbers of casualties to justify US imperialism.

    The latest US economic sanctions are actual mass terror against Iranian civilians but we’re not going to get any Guardian sob stories over that


  • Between 2013 and 2014, he also worked with IranWire.

    Just FIY almost every English site with 'Iran" in its title are paid US propaganda think thanks. Iranwire is no exception. Just pure US propaganda slop of people making up stuff and the medium publishing everything uncritically.

    Of course they have to write some bad excuse of why he returned and came clean. The biggest problem with Iranwire is this part from TheCanaray’s article.

    But she (Mina Ahadi) has posted a screenshot of Deghani’s confession. In the accompanying caption, she says that Deghani had already confessed to her in 2010, and that he had begged her not to expose him in case he was sacked and sent back to Iran.

    Which means even the accomplice says he CONFIRMED to have been lying all the way back in 2010 but he was afraid to be thrown away by the US propaganda machine and sent back to Iran if she outed him (at least that’s the excuse)
