Russian attack on Kyiv tonight.
Home to several million people.
Children. Elderly. Families, just like yours.

[WORLD NEWS @_MAGA_NEWS_]

WATCH: Crown Prince of Iran Reza Pahlavi dropped a bombshell warning to the Islamic Regime's collaborators, informants, and looters: "YOUR DAYS OF CRIMES WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES ARE NUMBERED!" Justice is coming. A free, prosperous Iran is on the horizon.

[Throwback Iran @Tarikh_Eran]

The regime in Iran attacked hospitals

The regime in Iran used machine guns to mass murder protestors

The regime in Iran used chemical weapons against civilians

Here is your proof!

🚨 This Lego video is circulating supposedly telling you “how the Iranians, the real ones” feel. The AI video with AI rap says “I don’t want the politics, I don’t want the war, I just want to know their names, say their names”.

My first thought: “at last, the people inside Iran speak out!”

But no. It is a regime sponsored video, a sinister one too because it’s subtle. I don’t blame this lady at all. It pulls at the heart strings. But it’s a regime video. How do we know?

Firstly this differentiation between Iranians and “real Iranians”. They want you to see a divide. Now there are Iranians outside the country, and inside. Even the ones inside are split between white Sim card holders who can communicate with the world, known as ‘regime supporters’ and there’s the vast majority of people who have no Internet, known as ‘anti-regime protestors’. In this video “the real Iranians” are the ones holding the crab-like regime flag of Iran (2nd image) thus it’s regime sponsored. A regime that hates America. So anything in the video glorifying America is utter nonsense trying to manipulate.

Also the video only calls for the names of the “168” children in Minab. Where there has still been no independent investigation of the school bombing tragedy, where evidence is coming to light from the parents - currently being silenced - that there were two schools side by side, one with the children of IRGC commanders evacuated just in time, and the other which got hit had its doors purposefully locked from the outside. The intention being pupils from the Baluch minority (traditionally staunchly anti-regime) would be sacrificed by the regime to start a propaganda war. Propaganda the parents were forced to participate in.

This is coming from inside Minab covered by the intentional press. Which is exactly what we said would happen if a war started: the regime would sacrifice innocent Iranians, woman & children, anyone, to stay in power.

Of course the names of these children must be remembered - but in the correct context.

The video has ZERO mention of the daily executions of teenage protesters. ZERO mention of the enforced internet black out (now entering day 71) and ZERO mention the 40,000 slaughtered by the regime. This is the crucial context which the video conveniently leaves out.

If you are “legitimately choked up” by this video then here is news for you: you’ve completely fallen for the propaganda of a terrorist regime. Propaganda that seeks to appeal to the ONLY thing that will keep them in power:
American public opinion.

The way to end the war is to end the regime. The only thing that will bring peace to the entire region is to end the regime.

Anything less and the world is keeping a regime in power who have vowed to punish their own people, 14 million of whom were protesting, which got the attention of the world in the first place, and vowed to continue to export their ideology of hate and inflict even more tyranny on the world.

America. Stop VALIDATING the regime in Iran. Your validation of these videos is supporting the biggest terrorist organisation the world has ever seen.

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

This image of the regime washing blood off the streets after they massacred protestors in January in Iran is intensely symbolic

The "international community" is whitewashing the regime all over again

[Dr. Sheila Nazarian @sheilanazarian]

I studied Islam at Columbia University because I needed to understand what it says in the Quran that forced my family to flee Iran under gunfire after the Islamic revolution.

I’ve read the Quran. I know what it says to do to Jews. And no one can deny it to me because I studied it. And here’s the truth: Sharia Law is not compatible with the West.

[Omid Djalili @omid9]

Important to add that any voices you hear from inside Iran are “white SIM card” holders which by-pass the internet blackout for the rest of the country. These are the regime supporters and affiliates who are able to talk to western media and give a false impression there is massive support for the regime and represent about 0.05% of the country. We now enter day 41 of the shut down, unprecedented in scale and duration, violating Iranians' rights to communicate and stay informed ⬇️

[Omid Djalili @omid9]

Islamofascist mass murderers make last ditch propaganda appeal to save themselves to their number one ally: American public opinion. Shameful post by Iran’s so called “President” stuffed full lies which will go down in history as the final throw of the dice before the inevitable downfall. #IranIsraelUSAWar

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

Hooray !

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

ZELENSKYY to BBC: We went through difficult relations with Iran. We did nothing to them. They shot down our plane, killed our passengers and crew, didn’t admit it, and didn’t let experts in.

Then the full-scale war started. They handed Shahed drones to Russians to kill our civilians. I asked them to stop. They promised there would be only one batch. They lied and kept supplying weapons.

That’s why I consider them accomplices of Russia.

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

36,500 protesters slaughtered by a regime supported by many Western progressives

🚨BRITAIN IS BROKEN: AFGHAN ASYLUM SEEKERS R*PE 15-YEAR-OLD GIRL WHILE SHE SCREAMS FOR HELP ON CAMERA! 😱😡

The Footage Was So Horrific That Barristers Warned It Could Spark Riots If Released To The Public 😤

What have our politicians done to this country? Two 17-year-old Afghan asylum seekers, Jan Jahanzeb and Israr Niazal, small-boat arrivals housed by the taxpayer, lured an intoxicated 15-year-old British girl into a park in Leamington Spa.

They dragged her away from her friends, forced her into a secluded spot, and r*ped her while she desperately screamed "help", "please let me go" and "I want to go home".

Her own phone footage captured the nightmare: cries for mercy, a hand clamped over her mouth, explicit protests, all played in Warwick Crown Court.

It was so shocking that one of the defence barristers warned the public seeing it could lead to riots. Yet these monsters only got 10 years 8 months and 9 years 10 months in youth detention, with a mere recommendation for deportation.

This horror could have been avoided.

Our leaders have long pushed unchecked mass migration through both illegal crossings and expansive legal pathways, putting our daughters and communities at risk every single day.

They now talk tough on immigration and claim to be cracking down, yet huge numbers of migrants continue to arrive, whether slipping across the border illegally or entering through still-active legal visa and parole programs.

All the strong rhetoric amounts to little more than lip service when the overall flow of people keeps coming without real, sustained reductions in both categories.

How many more innocent girls must suffer before they actually do something serious to stop it?

[Andrew Fox @Mr_Andrew_Fox]

New campaign just launched to ban the Muslim Brotherhood in Great Britain.

Must follow

[Kosher @koshercockney]

Leftists in London marching with the Islamic Regime flags.

A regime that hangs gay people and bludgeons women’s faces in if they don’t wear a hijab.

But yeah let’s pretend these people care about “Human rights”

[Goldie Ghamari | گلسا قمری 🇮🇷 @gghamari]

This convoy isn't meant to fight the USA or Israel.

It's meant to murder Iranians who try to rise up against the terrorist Islamic Republic.

This is what we Iranians have been dealing with for the last 47 years: terrorists that have taken over Iran.

[Heidi Bachram @HeidiBachram]

If your anti-fascist march has people holding the image of the Ayatollah who slaughtered thousands of peaceful protesters then you’re on a fascist march.

[Kasra Aarabi @KasraAarabi]

Fanboys of the Islamic regime lead the “march of love and peace” in London

For context: the Islamic regime massacred 40,000 protestors in Iran in January; executes gay people; treats women as 2nd class citizens; seeks the annihilation of Jews; & is plotting terror in Britain.

Flashback: What got this man arrested? A placard that said “We stand with Britain’s Jews”.
In Britain it is now forbidden to offend Muslims. Anything that makes Muslims feel subjectively offended, upset, unhappy or uncomfortable is treated as a “hate crime” called “Islamophobia”. This completely strips non-Muslims of their most basic human rights and turns them into persecuted targets of the state.

Flashback 2020: An Iranian girl was attacked by a regime agent for wearing jeans and improper hijab.

This is how women are treated under oppressive Islamic laws in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Women in Iran have no freedom, no human rights, and no autonomy over their own bodies.
