    West DELUSIONAL About Iran Protests: US, Israel DESPERATE for Unrest | Ehsan Safarnejad


    Description:

    President Trump is doubling down on his threat to attack Iran amid ongoing protests over the state of the economy and the Iranian currency plunging to record lows. Israel has wasted no time in looking for ways to fuel the unrest, with Mossad bragging that its agents are “in the field,” as some demonstrations turn into riots.

    Iran-based Geopolitical Analyst Ehsan Safarnejad noted that media in the West are disingenuous about the scale of these protests, as they look to capitalize off of the claim that Iran is on the verge of collapse at any moment.

    He pointed out that while Iranians do have legitimate concerns about their nation’s economy, these protests of “negligible” compared to the demonstrations Iran has seen in recent years, and the Iranian public continues to back its government… especially in the face of a possible next round of attacks from the U.S. and Israel.

    Iran seems relatively quiet compared to that inside job on the judge. They executed a Mossad and in Ilam, someone attacked a few bags of rice.

    Huge loyalist gathering in Isfahan:





    Things are relatively normal while Lebanon is being bombarded and SDF again clashes with HTS in Aleppo.

    I would tend to speculate that if the SDF is not all that important to the US any more, it can do nothing but relapse into Rojava nationalism, which makes it hated by Turkey. And, sadly, that was a success of the Ba'ath, in the sense they relinquished dominance and allowed the Kurds to go autonomous. It was one of the few political shifts you see that seems fair and made something that might work better.

    The recurve from Israel towards Iran appears to be complied with by the United Arab Emirates.

    They have claimed a few islands and approved an Israeli base and are probably entangled with force projection into Somalia. Sounds like a poodle, even if they don't have much besides oil money. I think it's one of those places where the workforce is mostly foreign immigrants, because, you know, Emirs don't have time for that sort of thing.

    🇷🇺🇮🇱 BREAKING!! Circulating claims on social media allege that Russia has conducted three urgent evacuation flights in the past 24 hours to repatriate embassy staff and family members from Israel, based on flight-tracking data.

    The aircraft referenced include Russian-registered government or military-linked jets operating on non-routine routes, with short ground times and limited public disclosures.

    No official statement from Moscow has yet verified an evacuation order. Diplomatic movements can reflect contingency planning rather than imminent escalation.

    That said, when embassies quietly move families, it is often a signal that governments are preparing for uncertainty, even if they are not publicly acknowledging it.

    The UAE is now completely in cahoots with Israel and has got it's fingers in all sorts of pies.

    Mohammed Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan intends to quell political Islam. (At the behest of Israel)

    Is now also at odds with Saudi MBS over Yemen since MBS ordered strikes on two cargo ships carrying arms headed to Yemen to replenish UAE backed mercenaries.

    UAE has also bought equity stake in Fauji Foundation Conglomerate (Pakistan's largest welfare trust) to convert debt to equity. Analysts predict this will ramp up pressure on Pakistan to recognize Israel.

    Iran has gotten a few more minor messes, and the one that may be legitimate is Kurdish separatists.

    Otherwise, you mostly have foreigners and foreign-backed agitprop making sabotage attacks right at the police, military, or other obvious government property. So far, nothing big, although discovering workshops makes it apparent there could be something big. It is really a very small number of actual Iranians whose concept of "reform" is revolutionary to the extent of re-installing the Shah or something.


    The UAE was brought on board by the Epstein network, and now the problem apparently is that UAE -- Israel can become its own axis independent of the Saudis and even of the United States.


    This Orwellian statement:

    Quote US President Donald Trump has repeatedly voiced support for protesters, warning that Washington could attack Iran if what he described as “peaceful protesters” are harmed.

    is mirrored by the fact that he endorses his authorities killing Americans.

    Pseudo-Iranians going around with knives and rifles are obviously not "peaceful", so these situations are very different.

    This should be predictable:

    Quote In Tehran, 40 individuals were arrested for using artificial intelligence (AI) tools to create and circulate fabricated images and videos of unrest.

    That's a lot of outside work, while the legitimate Iranian complaints are almost all a result of sanctions.

    So, if you see stuff going over there -- and I saw two big birds going up fast -- the point of contention is that Iran's clerical policy of restraint may give way to the military policy which will be pre-emptive strikes.

    It's on the table. If you see bases someone has projected around the world, and, you see them loading more hardware which is aimed at you, that is just like Ukraine. In the same way that I understand Russia's "aggressive" move, the same thing would be understandable here.

    That's aside from the guillotine called the Strait of Hormuz.

    If you are one of these force projecting countries, and, you expect your citizens to go along with it, that's not going to happen. This regime is a total disaster that can never be allowed back in any form.

    In the three months since the US unveiled a 20-point Gaza plan, more than 400 Palestinians have been killed and thousands injured in near-daily Israeli attacks. Gaza has been fragmented, with Israel controlling over half its territory. Is this "peace plan" truly about peace?

    The process of burning some trash bins and the fire trucks that might have helped, has caused "Against Sabotage" to float to a major theme in the moderate rallies. Moreover, Mossad's ringleader has been exposed:


    Quote In a statement, the group identified the individual as Mehrdad Rahimi, saying he served as the guiding officer of Iranian agents of the agency.

    According to a statement released by Handala, Rahimi was responsible for coordinating networks of operatives, managing the logistical infrastructure of riots, and channeling clandestine financial support to anti-government ringleaders.

    Handala asserted that while Rahimi operated under the belief that he was a secure strategist directing clandestine cells, he was in fact under total surveillance for months.

    "Mehrdad Rahimi... attempted to play a major role in organizing and directing networks behind the unrest inside Iran," the group stated.

    "However, all of these operations were under Handala’s constant surveillance and influence, casting doubt on Rahimi’s effectiveness and operational independence."

    The group said it has hacked Rahimi’s secure phone, gaining access to the officer’s communications, allowing them to map out the identities of individuals connected to the riot networks.

    The group also released surveillance footage recorded outside Rahimi’s residence, suggesting that it also had physical surveillance over him.

    The group described its actions as a defense against a "dark cult" involved in money laundering and manipulation.

    "Tell them that the era of deception and staged productions is over," the group posted. "You are a dangerous and dark cult... but your time exploiting the label of anti-Semitism has come to an end."

    Handala also predicted an internal reckoning for Mossad, saying that "Jewish people are awakening" and will eventually turn against the organization’s "deceitful" methods.

    At the very least, that entails a depreciation of that asset class.

    I find it odd that no one on Project Avalon Forum is mentioning the revolution occurring in Iran. Your silence is deafening.
    The thought that the people in Iran are actually being oppressed is a bitter pill to swallow. The Iranian government has been a prime driver of Israel-hatred as a means to unify internal support and justify their policies. This makes discussions surrounding mass protests extremely sparse.

    The idea that the protests are genuinely organic and that the Iranian people are actually malcontent is hard for people to accept. There is also a segment of the Iranian population that has expressed a desire for normalization with Israel. The narrative seems to be that Israel is behind the protest and Mossad is actively involved. I am sure that Israel is attempting to agitate the Iranian people; I am also just as sure that the Iranians are attempting to do the same thing within Israel.

    These protests run the length of Iran and have hit virtually every sector of society. Discontent cuts across classes and professions, from merchants to professors, which indicates an extremely broad movement. Can you only imagine the courage it takes to protest in the streets? Punishment is death. Most people probably would like to protest but are too afraid to participate. I would suggest that the vast majority of Iranian people support the cause, which does not guarantee success, but it does reflect the severity of the discontent.

    At least 36 people have been killed during ongoing protests in Iran, as merchant strikes and street demonstrations spread to 285 locations across 111 cities in 31 provinces on the eleventh day of unrest. What started as an economic protest has now turned into a political protest in almost every town and city in the country.

    This is beyond horrifying.

    New data shows Israel has killed over 680,000 Palestinians in Gaza.

    Among them:

    • 380,000 infants under 5
    • 99,000 children over 5

    That’s 479,000 children murdered by Israel.

    Israel isn’t “defending itself.”

    It is wiping out Palestinian life.

    Ralph Nader

    Saturday’s Washington Post reports a person close to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, said, "Trump views it 'in the national interest to make sure there’s not a wholesale slaughter of civilians' in Iran." -R

    I guess he does not apply that level of concern, month after month - before and during the phony ceasefire - to the wholesale slaughter of civilian families, mostly children and women, in Gaza, or to the increasing violence and land seizures in the Palestinian West Bank. -R

    The question remains: what is Netanyahu’s hypnotic power over Trump, and why can’t the mainstream media get to the bottom of this strange control of the U.S. government by a small country in the Middle East ruled by a genocidal government? -R
