“Information trickling out of Iran on Tuesday suggests that a crackdown by authorities to end more than two weeks of widespread anti-government protests has likely been far more deadly than activists outside the country have reported,”

    Bombshell report is right. This report was literally made to precede bombs.

    Western media always gets played by the cia, state department, israel, et al.

    There might be protests, they are associated with the west, on issues the west exacerbated the problems of for this purpose, helped in Iran, but also agent provokateurs to stir up violence.

    Protesters are pawns, media is a bishop perhaps, in fomenting another iran war. If we can use a chess analogy when one player lacks major pieces.

    If you think the us and israel are going to make anything better, it explains how we got into our own political position.
