Trump in 2020 said he would target "52 Iranian sites, some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian cultureβ
A gift to the ayatollahs...

"Virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back"...?
Trump π€ 47 years of barbarous mullah regime
I really hope the coach of the Iranian womens' national team is safe.
The pride on her face... π
The guy just loves trolling Iranians:

They survived 47 years of the most barbaric, destructive regime. They can't go now because of one man's desire to destroy cultural heritage π₯
With Ali Qapu palace, 4 of Trump's shortlist of 52 Iranian world heritage sites are now damaged by airstrikes.
These sites are not just Iranian, they are the shared heritage of humanity civilization. This is akin to the Taliban's actions with the Buddhas of Bamiyan.
Their colleague, Yasaman Farmani, calls these lionesses "traitors".
She is the wife of professional footballer Ali Gholizadeh.
π¨ 5 players from Iranβs womenβs national football team have successfully sought refuge in Australia & declared support for Iranβs revolution
They left the teamβs training camp and sought safety abroad
The players are
Fatemeh Pasandideh
Zahra Ghanbari
Zahra Sarbali
Atefeh Ramazanzadeh
Mona Hamoudi
3 of Trump's list of 52 Iranian world heritage sites now damaged by airstrikes.
Will the others on his shortlist also experience his 2020 promise..?

The stunning Chehel Sotoon Palace in Isfahan, a third Iranian UNESCO world heritage site damaged by airstrikes π₯
On January 4th 2020, Trump tweeted that he planned to target "52 Iranian sites, some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian cultureβ
He spoke his truth...
I note that Trump and his gang have only ever openly supported MEK, and he uses the same language as with Machado for Pahlavi.
I personally like Reza Pahlavi, & have no issues with him becoming transitional leader, especially if that's what the people in Iran overarchingly want, which seems to be the case
But RP's most recent advisors, & certain cohorts of supporters, are a different story. These mid-20th century vibes β¬οΈ
How was this person ever allowed to look after other peoples' kids? π€―
He is like a God-King to them: everything from territorial breakdown, allies cosying up with MEK, re-naming of the Gulf...
They will never ever wake up.
The amount of doublethink being implemented by Trump supporting Iranians really needs to be studied in future generations.

Great interview with the legend/ostoreh of Iranian cinema, Jafar Panahi
Covers the power of art and cinema in protest
Star of the show is that translator performance - spot on π―

A lot of Iranian Diaspora in particular are about to get very disappointed, after the high/catharsis of recent kotlets
He has become a sort of Messiah figure, I don't know why they think he will be different to Iran compared to his approach to other countries in the world...
Exactly the same things he said about Machado, he keeps saying about Reza Pahlavi... Same tone, same content.
Trump looking to get his Delcy RodrΓguez. He even prefers guys like Jolani...
*converts*
A pox on this blasted autocorrect
The likely "full-time" successor to Khamenei (assassination notwithstanding), Larijani is into Kant.
The temporary "supreme leader" of the IR, Arafi is from the Laki tribe of the Kurdish people.
Interestingly his family are only recent concerts from Zoroastrianism to Islam...
I absolutely despise the barbaric IR regime which has caused so much death, destruction, and decay to the proud and ancient people of Iran for 47 years.
But they could still do something which I would neither condone nor condemn... β¬οΈπ€·π»ββοΈ
True words re: folk who have suddenly become Iran experts, lecturing Iranians and their offspring with "we care about you, but this isn't going to end well"
We know revolution from within is more organic
We know Western intervention rarely ends well
Don't lecture us, especially if you've been quiet
