Undefeated

People in Iran don’t all think the same — there are a lot of different opinions. But if you divide them into two broad groups, regime supporters and opponents, the opponents are definitely more numerous. The problem is, the supporters have more power because they’re backed by the government. The Ayatollahs have at least three main tools to fool people: 1. Super powerful media. These past couple of days, they’ve been flooding the news with emotional footage — dead little girls, their dolls buried in rubble, that kind of thing — all set to sad music they’ve had ready for moments like this. They also have hundreds of dramatic songs they pair with clips of attacks on Israel, saying, “We’re avenging the children.” 2. Religion. The Ayatollahs twist the Quran to fit their agenda. They pretend to be devout (they’re really not) to win people over. A lot of Iranians are religious, so this still works on some of them. 3. America’s dumb sanctions. These sanctions mostly hurt regular people, not the regime. They’ve caused serious economic pain, and a lot of Iranians resent the U.S. for that. Many think America and Israel are working together against them. On top of that, the regime blames all of its own failures on the sanctions. So yeah — it’s way more complicated than it looks from the outside.

Hello friends, It's 2:30 AM (about twenty minutes ago), and I woke up to the sound of missiles hitting the ground. Several missiles landed in Tehran. Since yesterday, Iran has begun its symbolic attacks on Israel. Some naive people are happy about the Ayatollahs’ attacks on Israel. As usual, the teenagers have fallen for the Islamic Republic’s propaganda. State radio and television are heavily emphasizing the phrase “revenge has been taken.”

Thanks, friends. Unfortunately, this forum loads very slowly for me. I’m not exactly sure what the problem is. It might be that the forum is hosted on a server that restricts access for Iranian users due to U.S. sanctions. Emojis don’t load for me either, so I can’t use them to react to your posts and show my appreciation. Yes, here in Iran we know that the ayatollahs are extremely deceptive and cowardly, and they avoid real war. But the reason is that they know any real war would inevitably draw the United States into the conflict. In reality, they fear America — not Israel. Another reason the ayatollahs avoid war is that they do not have the full support of the Iranian people. They face significant opposition inside the country — people like me, for whom today, with the killing of military commanders and regime loyalists, has been one of the best days of our lives. So in the event of a real war, there’s a real chance it could spark a civil war, and that would mean the end of the regime. On the other hand, Israel wouldn’t have launched such an attack without U.S. backing either, because the Islamic Republic has the potential to strike Israel from several countries. Southern Lebanon, Yemen, Syria, and large parts of Iraq are under the control of Iran’s Quds Force, and the ayatollahs could launch attacks from these regions. Israel has little to no influence in these areas (except for southern Lebanon), so in order to prevent such attacks, it relies on U.S. air power, American influence in the region, and especially intelligence provided by U.S. agencies. It doesn’t really matter whether Trump denies it or confirms it. He’s just as clueless as the ayatollahs in Iran. But like any world leader, he definitely has advisers who tell him exactly what lies to tell. I think it’s time to get rid of the Ayatollahs once and for all. As I’m posting this, the sounds of missile impacts are being heard in Tehran—two loud explosions in quick succession. The internet might be completely cut off soon. For now, goodbye—hoping for freedom.

I was awake last night, reading a book. Around 3:30 AM (near Tehran), I heard the first loud blast. At first, I thought the next-door neighbor was banging something against the ground. I went out into the yard, and then came another sound, and another—several booms in a row. It felt like someone was dropping a massive weight onto the ground. I could feel the vibrations in the walls, and I was getting slightly irritated with the neighbors. I considered everything except the possibility that it could be missile strikes! There’s no doubt the attacks will continue in the coming nights. Israel knows that the Islamic Republic has no real military response capability, and any retaliatory strikes are mostly for propaganda—to deceive the domestic public. Since this morning, state TV and radio have been focused on women and children who were killed in buildings. The head of one hospital said they had received around 50 bodies, more than 35 of them women and children. It's as if Israeli missiles are going house to house looking for women and children, and somehow avoid hitting men! These bastards are unmatched when it comes to manipulating public opinion. The Israeli strikes are still ongoing. They've targeted several cities across Iran. They've bombed military commanders, some nuclear scientists, and nuclear facilities. Of course, ordinary civilians who happened to live near these military and nuclear figures were also killed. What's clear is that these Israeli attacks were carried out with Trump’s approval, and the necessary planning and assessments were made long in advance. The top commanders of the IRGC have all been killed.

One of the Ayatollah's agreements with the US government at the time in the JCPOA was to grant green cards to the Ayatollahs' children. Sources in Iran say that during this secret agreement, several thousand green cards were issued to the children of Ayatollahs and officials of the Islamic Republic (one of the betrayals that the Democrats did to the American and Iranian people). They are now in America, some of them are spying for the Islamic Republic and others are talking sh*t about topics they don't have the slightest knowledge about (Like their Ayatollah fathers) in forums while eating popcorn.

See, the issue is that the Ayatollahs are lying about the Israel's annihilation. I see here that some say that Iran wants to annihilate Israel and some say that it cannot or can. Ayatollahs are lying about this. The presence of Israel (and an enemy in general) in the region helps the Ayatollahs to steal the money they get from the sale of Iranian oil under the pretext of confronting Israel. If there is no Israel, internal pressures on the government will increase. Those missiles that Iran launches are neither to destroy Israel nor even to scare Israel. It is only to deal with internal pressures. How can Ayatollahs be enemies with Israel or America when most of their families and children live in America now?

Every year dozens of Iranians are killed for protesting against the Ayatollahs. Sitting in a free country, what do you understand about strength and bravery? Right now, the government can put me in jail for at least 10 years just because of the content of the previous comment I sent here. You are eating your popcorn and making irrelevant comments.

If it wasn't for the Islamic Republic (the ruling government of Iran), the Arabs and Israel would have made peace long ago. Iranians are neither Arabs nor Muslims (Yes Iran has been a quasi-Islamic country since 1400 years ago but most of Iranians have not prayed even once; and the Ayatollahs just believe in the Khamenei doctrine, not Prophet Muhammad). And Iran not only does not have a common border with Palestine and Israel, but many Iranians do not even know where Israel is exactly. They only know that Israel is somewhere in the Middle East. So why does an Ayatollah from Iran, who is neither an Arab nor an Israeli, neither a Jew nor even a Muslim, involve himself more than any other country in the issue of Palestine and Israel? Despite my terrible English, I think the point is clear.

He medals, we just don't know its color.Will Sidakov be in Tirana?

ٔNot most of them. The difference between you or anyone else who does not live in a Muslim country -like Iran, where I live- and does not want annihilate the state of Israel with muslim people is not in your religion but in your media.
