Israel & CIA Now BRAGGING That Mossad Controls Iranian Protests! w/ Max Blumenthal (Jimmy Dore)

A growing body of evidence suggests that Israeli and U.S. intelligence agencies, particularly Mossad and the CIA, are actively takin part in Iran’s unrest by supporting and arming violent protest groups. Jimmy and The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal cite statements from figures like Mike Pompeo and reports from Israel’s Channel 14 to claim foreign coordination and messaging meant to embolden anti-government actions.

The two contend that Western media falsely portrays the unrest as mostly peaceful while ignoring attacks on Iranian security forces and infrastructure. They frame the situation as a long-running regime-change strategy driven by sanctions, covert operations, and geopolitical pressure rather than organic popular revolt.



The same tactics, of arming insurgents/protesters, was used to kick of the war in Syria. At the start of that conflict innocent protesters, along with security personnel, were killed by insurgents to create headlines and have both sides attack each other. In Syria the protest movement was then overrun by (foreign populated) extremist groups that the media kept calling pro democracy rebels.
