    Media Sides With Iran! “Has The Left Ever Been More Morally Bankrupt?”


    By S. Noble
    December 31, 2017

    We are including this first tweet because we couldn’t say it better. Some in the media are actually suggesting the protesters are the terrorists. The mainstream media is siding with Iran, if they say anything at all. The MSM is protecting the terror nation of Iran as best they can.

    Extraordinarily one-sided report on the Iranian protests in the @guardian, essentially siding with the regime. Has the left ever been more morally bankrupt? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/dec/31/protesters-who-spread-fear-and-violence-will-be-confronted-says-iran?CMP=share_btn_tw …

    Protesters who spread fear and violence will be confronted, says Iran
    Those who disrupt public order should pay the price, says interior minister, as more protests are planned for Sunday
    Iran has blocked Instagram/messaging out of the country, threatened protesters, and murdered three, as the protests continue after three days and nights during which throngs have taken to the streets, torn down Khamenei posters and chanted, “Death to the dictator, death to Russia” while promising a fight to the death.
    ~
    Snip~
    CNN is also doing their part, quoting Iranian front groups like the National Iranian American Council (NIAC), and claiming it’s not a revolution, just a civil rights movement or some angst over economic concerns.
    That is similar to the lie coming out of the International Crisis Group as well. They’re funded by George Soros. It’s nothing, not a movement, not a revolution, it’s nothing.
    ~Snip~
    With their usual amoral ideological stance, the media, except Fox News, is drawing the lines of mortal equivalency, minimizing the horror that is terrorist Iran, and making it about our alleged dictator Donald Trump who is trying to restore the rule of law.

    As the contrarian Alt-Left media is there's no doubt that they support the Mullah's of Iran rather than the citizens. This is mainly because Trump is on the Protesters side so they only have one way to go. I guess it must be professional courtesy on the part of the MSM.
    Ya know, Brothers in Totalitarianism.
    When an Iranian protester holds up a banner saying “THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP!”, the heads of MSMers will explode like Chinese firecrackers.
    Anyway, the MSM is proving itself inimitably despicable beyond belief.
    The Alt-Left and LSM support Islamic hardliners in Iran instead of the Iranian people. But, of course, we knew they would.

    What so stupid about regime change? It's a fact that many of the younger Iranians are more in tune with American ways through the internet even as limited as it is in Iran. I heard that Mullahs are still issuing weekend marriages for those who want weekend privileges. In the meantime many of the citizens want the same things they see on the internet and instagram. Then there's the factor of the high food prices while The gov't continues to throw money and taxes into Qud forces, weapons, and terrorism to include supporting Hezbollah, Houthi's and al Sadr to control Iraq.

    There are different groups of protesters. They are protesting inflation, unemployment, US sanctions and the support of Syria, Hezbollah and the al Houthis.

    They are also protesting the widening gap between the elite and the poor.

    The sanctions on Iran do not include food. Then one must wonder why local food like eggs, chickens, vegetables and milk have risen over 40% in the last months. As far as the elite and the poor, there will always be that gap it's the nature of life.

    BTW. Happy New Year to you and yours. May Peace be with you throughout the year.

    The MSM also has a vested interest in the government of Iran from their full-throated support of the Iranian nuclear armament deal.

    If trump manages to utter anything that is rational and beneficial to the broad masses of people, I will praise him for it. It sounds like this may be one of those very rare moments.

    That, and the MSM can not ever, under any circumstances, side with Trump on any issue, even a human rights one.

    The Iranian citizens are tired of the hate generated by the Mullahs. The changes sought by modern Iranians is more westernized and secularized.

    Then let the people of Iran work out the details. US nation building is a failure. Governments have to succeed because the people of the country back it - not because some foreign government pumps money in to change or prop them up.

    These are just words and there has been no action on our part to change the political scene in Iran. I would not be in favor of US military action against Iran at this time. Let the citizens of Iran create their own course to the future.

    Obama didn’t support the green revolution in 2009 and today the progressives still oppose opposition to the Iranian regime their dear leader Obama tried to deal with.

    We swore off nation building after the fiasco in Iraq.

    What would you have done in 2009? Would you have ordered a US invasion of Iran?

    The Left Democrats are anti Israel, anti free speech, anti capitalist, anti nationalist, and essentially anti western civilization, so no wonder they would tend to support the Iron Fist of Muslim Orthodox Theocracy in Iran, which calls for Death to Israel, and Death to the USA. The radical Democrat Leftists in the USA supported Obamas subversive efforts to that end, and if Hillary Clinton have been elected, the US would be at war with Russia, while ISIS would be attacking Israel, and the US would be having wave upon wave of terrorists finding sanctuary in US Left Democrat cities

    Thank God for Divine Intervention

    Would you prefer the US give Russia the finger and launch a ground war on Iran? I thought we were done with regime change since the Iraqi disaster.

    Divine intervention, my foot.

    ^ Cuckservative thread.

    The same neocons who ruined Irak, Syria, Lebanon, Libya etc now want to ruin Iran. They want to ruin all Shia Muslim countries with controlled revolutions to ensure Israeli supremacy in the ME. And you support them.

    Arab Spring doesn't work. It only benefits Sunni islamists and Israel, and puts Muslim countries in a permanent state of chaos and/or medieval theocracy. It's bad for the West (refugees), and it's terrible for the native population. It's been proven over and over.

    Of course you don't support direct military action. Newsflash : neither do they. Just let the CIA fund the revolution and have the media propaganda promote it, just like they did in Syria. Just like that fake news "feminist" who removed her hijab against the 'oppressive' regime...where it's not even illegal to do that anymore.

    It's Syria all over again. You can stop supporting civil war in Iran anytime now.

    No, which is the reason why I am glad Trump won. And support of protests against a Muslim theocracy, is not declaring a war on Iran.

    Its anti-American to reject regime change?
