This fully mirrors the narrative the Islamic regime is trying to create, that this recent uprising was conducted by terrorists supported by Israel and the US. This is an attempt to tarnish these protests and justify the regime’s brutal response to it.
You don’t think there are reactionary elements within this movement being supported by foreign interests?
The foreign interests literally said that they were supporting this lol.
Yeah, that’s why I asked them the question. It’s not even covert anymore. Do I think there is real rebellion happening against the Ayatollah? Yeah, I do. Do I think opportunists and reactionaries will use this to reinstall the Shah or some other western aligned government? Yeah, I absolutely do. I don’t know enough, do not have enough sources, or connections, to know what the character of the movement is on the ground. I don’t know if the Anarchists are organizing broadly, or if the Communists are forming any kind of vanguard to rally the masses, or if there is even a left popular front leading this movement. What I do know is that imperialism never sleeps, and never misses an opportunity to capture a movement.
