A brief review of what's actually been happening the last decade or so in Iran for those who are just tuning in. 

Yeah the lies about Russia didn't work so well anymore, especially since the Ukraine genocide Russia's big existential threat to the world turned out to be nonsense. Plus Trump loves Putin so Iran had to be talked up to be the existential threat to the world.

US and Israel and Europe as well now need a foreign bogeyman, existential threat to keep the population backing their corrupt governments. There's always China, but China makes all our stuff... And since Netanyahu already has talked up Iran as Israel's perceived existential threat, US and Europe can now take over those talking points to make Iran an existential threat for the entire world. Just to defend their nonsense foreign policies, backing Israel no matter what to keep lining their own pockets.

Iran can certainly be a much better country and the people there deserve a better regime. But that simply doesn't happen under the strictest sanctions with continuous assassination attempts by Israel. 

Progress and revolution come from stability and prosperity. Sanctions only support the stranglehold of the regime in power. And bombing a country only makes the people rally around the flag.

But that's exactly what Netanyahu wants. He can't have a moderate Iran as that would erase his power as well as the reason for Israel's existence... 

Geopolitics haven't changed in over 2,000 years, divide and conquer, bread and circuses
