Iran’s Revolutionary Guards vowed on Sunday to target ‘Israeli’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as the war with ‘Israel’ and the United States continues.

“If this child-killing criminal is alive, we will continue to pursue and kill him with full force,” said the Guards on their website Sepah News.

      Acknowledging that Iran killed forty thousand protesters makes me a Zionist? I’m not sure I follow.

      It took months for Israel to kill 40,000 Palestinians when they were bombing Gaza, how can you believe that Iran could pull that off in days? Israel wasn’t able to hide what they did either because Palestinians have phones, so where’s the video evidence coming out of Iran? They disposed of 40,000 bodies and we can’t see it from satellite images or phones? It’s nonsense.

      If you swallow the Zionist propaganda that Iran is somehow even more bloodthirsty than Israel, you’re a Zionist.

      Iran likely killed somewhere between Iran’s official count of 3,000 people and the HRANA count of 7,000, a lot of them rioters that were armed by CIA/Mossad and were shooting cops and burning down government buildings. There were certainly unarmed people who were also shot, but the situation on the ground was chaotic and it’s hard to distinguish armed targets during a riot.

      The “protests” were the original US/Israeli plan to overthrow the government, and they failed. This war is the backup plan.

          Compare again to the sub-10 number of protesters killed in Minneapolis.

          There weren’t hostile enemy nations arming the protesters in Minneapolis, and they weren’t hunting down cops and soldiers. 209 government-affiliated military and non-military personnel were killed during the riots. The situations are not so easily comparable.

          This wasn’t protest, it was attempted color revolution. Was Iran supposed to let them overthrow the government?

          I think it’s unnecessarily conspiratorial to lay it all at the feet of the US.

          We know Mossad was involved, because they openly admitted it. Mossad’s official Farsi X (Twitter) account posted: “We are with you. Not only from a distance and verbally. We are with you in the field.” Mossad Director David Barnea’s gave a statement following the June 2025 strikes, warning that Israel “will continue to be there [in Iran], as we have been there.” Mike Pompao came out to say; “Happy New Year to every Iranian in the streets. Also to every Mossad agent walking beside them." We also know they helped distribute satellite internet connections for Starlink to evade media blackouts, and operated social media channels to help coordinate the riots.

          CIA is less obvious, they actually have OpSec and know not to brag that they have agents in the streets. It’s hard to believe that the CIA left Israel on its own to conduct this operation, though. Also, the rioters got their guns from somewhere.

      Nobody except Zionist trolls are claiming “40000000 dead protesters!”
