Who is behind the Iran protests?

We'll soon know if $500 million for covert operations in Iran was spent well or wasted. A movie from a year ago.

Quote from monty21:

Thomas Jefferson... the US should remain neutral.

The same Thomas Jefferson who invaded Tripoli?

Hi John,

Correct me if I am wrong: for more than 300 years Iran was not involved in any war / military conflict that Iran started. In fact this is a very defensive country.

Can you say the same about USA?

They are killing US soldiers to this day, they have killed Israeli's, and they have assinated members of the Lebanese government. This has all occured in the last 5 years. Another poorly informed, left-wing, Obama cool-aid drinker.

Yeah. These guys are freakin saints.

"
President Obama called on the Iranian government to allow protesters to control the streets in Tehran. Would Obama or any US president allow protesters to control the streets in Washington, D.C.?

There was more objective evidence that George W. Bush stole his two elections than there is at this time of election theft in Iran. But there was no orchestrated media campaign to discredit the US government."

Western establishment media organs are tripping over themselves to broadcast tragic footage showing the death of a young Iranian woman allegedly at the hands of pro-Ahmadinejad forces in an effort to rally international opinion against the government of Iran, a stark contrast to their complete and total refusal to broadcast footage of the hundreds of thousands of innocent women and children killed in Afghanistan and Iraq by U.S. and UK troops.

Neda Agha-Soltan has become a poster child for the CIA-sponsored color revolution in Iran after tragic and shocking scenes of her death were uploaded to You Tube the day after she was gunned down in Tehran on Saturday.

Soltan is being hailed as a "martyr" and "the face of the Iranian protests" by major western media outlets in emotional news reports such as the following CNN piece.

The hypocrisy is almost impossible to stomach. Hundreds of thousands of innocent women and children have been slaughtered in similar fashion by coalition forces during the bombardment and occupation of both Iraq and Afghanistan, and many of these deaths have been caught on camera. And yet the establishment media has blindly refused to broadcast any of it. Indeed, it could be claimed that the footage of Neda's death has already been broadcast more times by the corporate media than the thousands of victims whose deaths were caught on film in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last eight years.

There's no doubt that Neda's vivid and shocking death is tragic to witness and a terrible loss for her family. However, the repercussions of the video circulating the globe via You Tube and its propaganda-driven exploitation by the west to demonize the Iranian government could have tragic consequences for many more innocent Iranians in the years to come.

The propensity for western governments to manufacture or exploit intensely emotional stories such as Neda's death, and tragic events involving young women and children in general, in order to hoodwink populations into supporting phony wars of "liberation" has been proven time and time again.

One of the stunts used to sell the invasion of Iraq to the American people was the alleged capture and mistreatment of young female POW Jessica Lynch, who the Pentagon claimed went down in a blaze of glory in an attempt to throw off her captors and was subsequently "rescued" by U.S. forces. Lynch later revealed that the Pentagon concocted a Rambo fable around her image and that she actually never fired her weapon and was treated very well by Iraqi doctors who released her back to the U.S. military without incident.

The first invasion of Iraq was preceded by a similarly manufactured fable perfectly designed to tug at the heart strings and create a sense of outrage that won over a hesitant population into supporting a war.

Following the (US approved) Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990, an American PR company called Hill & Knowlton was paid $10.7 million by a Kuwaiti front group to devise a campaign to win American support for the war. Stories soon began to emerge of brutal Iraqi soldiers removing babies from incubators in Kuwait hospitals. A firestorm of outrage spread across the western media and the population demanded that something be done, completely unaware of the fact that the whole story had been completely manufactured with the intention of creating that exact reaction

So let me get this straight. A Canadian is saying that the US should mind its own business without noticing a bit irony.

So America can't tell others what to do, but Canadians can tell America what to do. Hypocrites.

Where are they killing US soldiers and Israelis? When did they assasin members of the Lebanese government? Just curious.

Do you see some similarities between coup in 1953 by CIA in Iran and today?

Can a left-winger do any research for themselves? Come on, the Iran link to countless acts of violence across the Middle East is pretty well known. Do a little research for yourself. Having to spoon feed information to the statist, left-wing, Obama maniacs is really getting old.
