The silver lining here, i think, is that this seems like they put a ton of resources and activated a lot of assets for this. With its failure, I wonder how long it'll be before the US and Israel can try such a thing again

What were they getting paid?

It depends on what the terrorist reported to their handlers -> https://lemmygrad.ml/post/10382120

This is an example:

  • 500 million tomans for killing each person
  • 200 million tomans for burning each vehicle
  • 80 million tomans for burning police stations
  • 15 million tomans for any form of harassment or disruptive action

I was a little dubious that this was completely real, but that channel 14 tweet really confirms it

It is not very hard to believe the iranians though. As long as you were able to check historical references and stay up to date with similar events, this pattern of destruction has been shown in plenty of other countries under imperialist siege and it is known as the Gene Sharp manual for color revolutions.

With that in mind and through endless dehumanizing propaganda financed by the West, westerners and some people from the global south have been trained through repetition to skeptically dismiss the version of the countries and populations like the Palestinians suffering a brutal siege from the imperialists. We have seen this repeatedly. Over and over again.

First, it was the Palestinians where the Israelis used whatever accusation to make the Palestinians as "inferior" beings, then we latin americans are seeing the same with our Venezuelan and Cuban brethren, and now the Iranians. Same playbook. Before the Palestinians, there were numerous other examples and the result was the same. The imperialists want the masses to feel apathetic, distrustful or downright hateful to the oppressed. That makes it easier for the imperialist to exterminate all of us.

Edit typos 😭
