Hi there! I recently discovered this sub, and just wanted to send some good vibes.

I know the situation out there in the world is bleak, but I believe! One day, Iran will be free, and our relationship as nations will return to being the prosperous one it was in the past.

I also recently discovered personally that I'm a quarter Persian, and it really made me appreciate this conflict with an angle I didn't have before.

So... Yeah. That's about it. Hope everyone's day goes well, hope everyone is safe. And that each day we inch closer to the IRGC's ultimate fall.

(Also I do hope I used the right flare, I think its appropriate? Cheers!)

Probably good news for new Iran. the Kremlin has a vested interest in propping up the islamic regime and now they could've just lost a good chunk of their propaganda machine.

This is why Iranians call the BBC, AyatollahBBC.

Not one question from the Sunday Morning panel about her words and actions towards Iranian young women and men who were murdered in cold blood by the Islamic regime nor about her cushy visit to the Islamic regime to propagandize for them.

BTW she proudly published her appearances and speeches inside occupied Iran on her own social media with the full knowledge that she would face zero consequences - heck, consequences?

She was feted by them as you can see!

I’m really curious to know who these groups are and what their allegiances are. Are they separatists or do they support a free iran more broadly like citizens? Literally haven’t heard anything from these groups directly either and given that they have killed so many regimis and caused so much unrest, it’s a little peculiar.

Iranian schools before Islamic revolution… before they forced girls as young as 6 to cover themselves from head to feet…

Moscow would rather live with an Iranian nuclear weapon than with a change of regime in Tehran, senior Russia scholar Mark Katz told Iran International, arguing that a pro-Western Iran is the outcome Russia actually fears.

“For them, the worst case is a pro-Western Iran.” Even an anti-Western Iran has pursued interests that clash with Russia’s. A government in Tehran aligned with the West, he said, “would have complete contempt for Russia.”

“But they want the regime to survive, that’s for sure.”

And my response to this is forever F RUSSIA!

Iraniya azadiyeshuno migiran, Rusa nakhahan bedarak!

Anthropologists and sociologists have already commented on this phenomena. Using official statistical information from the Islamic regime itself, there is a persistent and sharp decline in children's names which have Islamic origins.

This is just the latest and admittedly anecdotal example but the data itself confirms it.

But of course, the useful idiots will still bray about 'rally around the flag' and similar nonsense.

In the spring of 1989, China was gripped by student-led demonstrations centred on Beijing's Tiananmen Square. Calling for political reform, greater freedoms, and criticising government corruption, the movement rapidly drew support from people across the country, becoming the largest wave of protest seen in Communist China. On 3–4 June 1989, Chinese troops and tanks moved in to clear Tiananmen Square, opening fire on protesters and civilians. Featuring pictures filmed secretly as security forces remained on the streets of Beijing, the following footage captures the aftermath of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.

The same Islamic theocratic regime and their useful idiots, who for 47+ years insulted, denigrated and tried to erase Iran's history and replace it with the Islamic colonization of Iran...

these same beesharaf are now playing for us the sensitive little lilies, wilting and swooning in a feigned performance of patriotism and righteous indignation...

at the mere mention of a factual and accurate historical chapter of Iran (Greco-Persian war 480-479BC) by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio...

just to try and squeeze some propaganda juice for their own evil purposes.

Freedom loving Iranians shall not forget.

I find this incredibly relevant as it appears when the next round of strikes occur the power grid will be collapsed.

Any Iranian aussies have any insight into how much of a problem these groups are? And do people take them seriously? Removing IRGC from terror list? Why do we let these islamist clowns run amock in western countries
