Sorry about the source, but it’s hard to beat an open admission.

      All these agencies are terrible and caused many disasters before.

      That being said: Iranian has been suffering for long time. They are sandwiched between sanctions from outside and oppressive government from inside. This is not the first time they revolt.

      I wouldn’t call it manufactured but these agencies are certainly assisting because it suits their agenda.

        Every country has its internal frictions, and these imperialists always take advantage of and hijack those domestic tensions for their own agenda, and when they succeed, the results are far worse than whatever the domestic grievances were originally about.

        Iran no doubt has its problems, but remember that the problems we’ve seen are the ones the imperial propaganda machine wants us to see, which are at best exaggerations and at worst fabrications.

        Iranian while protesting the autocratic regime should be pretty clear that no foreign powers should intervene. It never end well when foreign powers are involved you can simply look to Syria and Lybia

        Iran doesn’t have the luxury to change up their government right now that should be perfectly clear to anyone paying attention. Iranians have been oppressed by the West for centuries. Last time they overthrew the previous guy for the West they got this guy.

        Unless Iran wishes to become Iraq 2.0 these revolutions will achieve nothing the useful idiots rioting want.

        Yea! They’re tired of the last dictator they installed in Iran by overthrowing the government (this one), so now they are ready for a downgrade.

        It’s a complicated situation but what have these organizations ever done that is actually good?
