Sometimes home is the best place to fight.
Thank you for covering this. I hope that one day my parents get to go back home to a free country where you can be any religion you want or not religious at all. A country free of the mullahs. All we ask is that other countries simply stop dealing with the mullahs. Stop buying their oil and recognize them as terrorists.
🔷راه عبور از نظام جمهوری اسلامی
🔴اگر افراد مشهور و فرهیخته مخالف جمهوری اسلامی 85 نفر باشند
💚هر کدام از این فرهیختگان 10 نفر را کاندید کنند
🤍سپس این 850 نفر انتخاب شده با رای از بین خود فقط 10 نفر شایسته را بعنوان شورای موقت رهبری تا برگزاری رفراندم انتخاب کنند
❤بدیهی است که 10 نفر منتخب مییابد با 850 نفر معرفشان در ارتباط باشند و اینها نیز با 85,000 نفر زیر مجموعه شان و آنها به ترتیب با 8,500,000 و بهمین روال با کل مردم ایران 85,000,000 در تماس باشند تا هم نظرات دریافت شوند و هم همه در انقلاب سهیم و موثر باشند
#مصادره_اموال_بستگان_رژیم_بنفع_ایران
کشورهای غربی بجای تظاهر در شبکه های اجتماعی بهتر است دارایی رژیم و بستگان نظام را که بیش از 5400 نفر در غرب هستند را به نفع مردم ایران مصادره و سپس آنها را اخراج کنند
رژیم در 44 سال گذشته باعث جنگ و مرگ بیش از نیم میلیون و مهاجرت بیش از 5 میلیون و آسیب رساندن به زندگی بیش از 80 میلیون ایرانی شده است
🔴جمهوری اسلامی باید به زادگاهش عربستان برگردد
Face coverings/masks/ muzzles are for dogs.
Iran will prevail against those demostic terrorists, and western confirmist dogs.
And America soccer team return home amid high gas prices 😂

We Love Iran from Pakistan 🇵🇰
1:54 '…the ball is round'. 😳
Iranian supreme leader ,Khamenei , calls the protesters as cockroaches and weeds
the soccer team is clearly a better team than the political management team that the iri currently have
there is a video of a guy in qatar going around and asking from Americans to aurtalians, to saudis, Brazilian, europeans, africans, chinese, etc. to choose the country they like from the 2 flag he hold. one was US flag and the other was Iran flag. everyone choose the iranian flag, even the americans went there. The hatred people of the world have at US is being filtered. Not only US, but israel got worse. Their reproters and spectators were harrased and attacked and even the security there almost thrown them out. when people found out they were israeli, they would get attacked verbaly. so israelis and even their top official clothes as regulat man hid his identity there and was on Israeli tv talking about the world hatred of Israel and their love for palestine. these videos are also filtered by MSM.
So you wanted them to go where????🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
And the Americans aren’t? While the main stream media neglect to show all the protests going on in the United States, we still have massive political unrest here.
And like Iran women still don’t have equal rights here in America. Maybe America should clean up its own filthy yard before point fingers at other people.
Non sense propaganda which makes any iranian or anyone that knows about Iran laugh.
It was hilarious to see that Iranian reporter ask Tyler Adams how he feels playing for a country with such oppression as the U.S. Are they out of mirrors to look into in Iran? Lol, what a joke. How about the slave labor it took to build all the facilities for the World Cup? Where’s the outcry? Business as usual I guess when the first game starts. Bottom line, if you watch or support this World Cup, you should keep your mouth shut about any oppression anywhere.
they received a great welcome with kisses and hugs and flowers showering's and even high officials visited them and the supreme leader thanked them and welcomed them back as heroes for all iranians. the nation was in full of joy with people and police officers giving people flowers and spreading sweets to the drivers and pedestrians and it was unbelievable, but these will not be shown MSM. Only what is dictated and reversed will be shown to the non-Iranians in the west.
just as predicted. Now the same protests and violent and the same methods that were used in iran riots by West (US) is now happening in china. the same exact methods. Will russia be next?. Remember west has 3 enemies. Iran, China and Russia. For Iran project the title was mahsa amini (hijab), in China is Covid-19. heck even chinese social medias are displaying making fire-bombs how to and use weapons and all the same things Iranian social medias were doing it. In Iran project US spend 887,000,000 dollars of tax payers. I wonder how much is being spend on China project? How much will be spend on next Russia project?
NBC will you be firing more of your reporters for telling the truth? If one of your reporters were to report on the twitter reveal will you be firing them for reporting this? You really are just another msnbc type of twisted one sided pathetic so called news channel, eh? America is fully aware of what you are.
USA has no credibility! BlackLivesMatter protests reveal so much US hypocrisy! GOP is quick to support protestors in Iran but tries to diminish American grievances & calls protestors criminals! Hypocrites!
Our hypocrisy is shameful/endless! USA/We've placed illegal/inhuman sanction(economic warfare/collective punishment)on a nation with 80M people making it difficult 2 buy food/medicine during a pandemic. We've interfered in Iran's domestic affairs 4 many years(1953, CIA-assisted coup overthrows government of Iran), & provided military support 2 Sadam during Iraq-Iran war killing millions of Iranians. USA has no credibility!
This is a propaganda campaign against Iran. Inciting deadly riots, burning police officers alive, burning schools/buses/hospitals are not protests. There is a different between protest & violence.
Iranian players should have protested against police brutality & racism by kneeling on one knee while the U.S. national anthem is played!
US players should have been banned from playing in the world cup for altering Iran's flag! According to section 13 of FIFA rules, any person who offends the dignity or integrity of a country, a person or group of people … shall be sanctioned with a suspension lasting at least ten matches or a specific period, or any other appropriate disciplinary measure.
Iran should have promoted the match by replacing the US flag with the Confederate one!
LOST to the U.S.? Have they been EXECUTED yet???
So you protest some parts of your religion, but adhere to others???
Ah selective religion…. makes total sense.
that's the last time anyone will ever see them or their families again. and these are the guys obama wanted to help build nukes
Im Laufe der Jahre hat die Kommunistische Partei Chinas unbewusst alle Bereiche und Regierungsstellen in den Vereinigten Staaten infiltriert, um das amerikanische Volk allmählich zu lähmen und zu zersetzen und zu versuchen, seinen Kampfgeist vollständig zu zermürben.
