Where is/was the protests for the dead Iranians???
British-Iranian actress Nazanin Boniadi called out progressive activists for their lack of outrage over the regime’s human rights violations before President Donald Trump conducted military strikes against the nation.
The “Rings of Power” actress appeared on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” Wednesday to discuss the ongoing war against Iran and concerns over the vacuum of leadership in the nation after the U.S. eliminated its leaders.
She agreed with concerns that an ISIS-level threat could take over the country but noted that several human rights activists and organizations did not acknowledge civilian deaths until after the U.S. targeted Iran.

And there is this one HERE from The View when the leftists on there get confronted with the facts of the differences in women’s rights before and after…
This is a situation that has been ignored by the MSM and the left, and I ‘think’ I know why, but I’m going to leave that up to y’all to think about.
The sad part is that 30,000 (possibly a low estimate) have been killed by the IRGC/Basij/mullahs over the last month or so. This whole thing was started by merchants in Tehran because of water issues and the devaluation of Iranian money.
The water issue is literally at the critical stage, with experts saying Tehran will be out of water sooner rather than later, because of mismanagement and a 5 year drought, HERE. When that happens, Tehran will cease to exist as a city, and the capital will move to some other city.
I don’t think there is any doubt that ‘something’ had to be done, and whether you like it or not, anyone that knows the Iranian mullahs know they did not believe they would be attacked and could continue to do whatever they wished. They had gotten away with all the crap they had pulled since 1979, with few penalties, and were determined to get one or more nuclear weapons. They had stymied the IAEA, the inspectors, and bought what they needed from France and Germany since those countries figured they were ‘safe’. And previous administrations went along with this and even gave them money!
There is no doubt in many people’s mind who studied the region and the actual intel, they would have used them on the US as soon as they could, as the US has been the ‘Great Satan’ for a long time! Beirut 1983, torture of Americans in various places, beheadings, and paying for/spreading terrorists world wide and funding them, anybody remember that???
I know I’m really tired of the FB/Google PhDs who suddenly know everything, and know ‘exactly’ what should have been done/should be done who’ve never bothered to actually look beyond the 30 second sound bites they get from the MSM…
Grrr… I’m off to take my BP meds.
I take my BP meds first thing when I wake up to let them take effect before I start reading any domestic or world news articles.
Selective outrage has always been a thing for the MSM. Anything published by them must be viewed through the lens of “What self-serving lies are they trying to get me to believe now?”
Nuke ’em ’till they glow and use their asses for runway lights.
Hey Old NFO,
The Mullah’s have been pushing the envelope for years and getting away with it. They have been relying on the West playing “Nice” and they don’t. You are correct, they would drop/deliver a nuke on a major city in a new york minute to hurt the “Great Satan”. They are relying on the wussiness of the West to go with appeasement rather than vengeance. Trump did the right thing.
Ag- Yep, sigh…
LL- Hell yes!
Bob- No question in my mind!
Am I missing something, or is the crowd that wanted us to go into Ukraine the same crowd that wants us out of Iran?
I’m glad you mentioned the water crisis.
Still little known, but when things settle down, it will be pointed out that it is Trump’s fault.
When the regime decided that death to the great and little Satan were more important than maintaining pipes and dams, they let everyone know their real priorities. The great, world-ending war was supposed to come soon, if they had to start it themselves and force the hand of G-d. (Which plan never seems to work well for anyone, including the people who are 100% certain that they know the day, and hour, of the deity’s return, no matter which deity we are discussing.)
Never heard of the gal, but then I saw why: she was in “De Lawd of dem Blings”, and I never watched that crap.
Ed- Of course…sigh
TXRed- Exactly! The mullahs ‘claim’ to know the unknowable…yeah, right…
TB- I hadn’t either, but I found her statements to be interesting, considering who she is and where she was.
It is interesting to wonder what you would find out if you did a survey of female Iranian PhDs in the United States.
Dunno.
I think events a month in the future might surprise us, no matter how well we have tried to be prepared in our analysis and background knowledge.
Bob- Agreed!
