CIA, Mossad have orchestrated recent violent riots in Iran: Analyst |
2018-01-04 |
[PRESSTV] The recent protests in Iran were partly orchestrated by American and Israeli intelligence agencies, with clear signs of Western interference in the ensuing violent riots, says a political analyst and author in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,... "Everyone should be suspicious when something like this happens, especially when the western media and western officials, especially [US President Donald] Trump jump all over these things, and bash Iran, blame Iran for mistreating its people and so on and so forth," Stephen Lendman told Press TV on Wednesday. "I believe what is happening is the protests were orchestrated by the CIA, I believe complicit with Israel’s Mossad," Lendman said. The violence is "a clear tip-off that foreign interference is behind what’s happening," he added. Since Thursday, groups of Iranian protesters have staged demonstrations in several cities over rising prices and economic hardships, which are partly the result of years-long illegal US-led economic sanctions against the country. The peaceful protests turned violent when groups of participants, some of them armed, vandalized public property and launched attacks on cop shoppes and government buildings. Over a dozen people have been killed in the ensuing violence, according to state media reports. In a series of tweets on Wednesday, Trump again expressed his support for rioters in Iran, saying they are finally taking action against the country’s government. |

#7 And of course, the regime's own heavyhandedness and corruption have nothing to do with it. That is the problem with bad fiction, it makes it hard to suspend your disbelief. |

#5 Economic mismanagement and corruption never seems to be the problem. Give the Chinese credit, they occasionally make a show of (ineffectively) cleaning up corruption. It's good theater for the masses. |

#4 A 'rounding up of the usual suspects'.... it's a universal theme. |

#1 Mr. Lendman acquires evidence for his claims from his vivid imagination. In reality Israel is the country of the Middle East in which Arab citizens have the most rights the most freedom, and enjoy considerable prosperity. In Lendman's mind they are helpless abject persecuted victims. His evidence for the claims in this article have the same source: his boundless hate. |
