accusations of invaders targeting left-wing activists

The US and Israel have been specifically targeting the homes of left-wing activists in Iran for bombing, according to well-known writer and journalist Tariq Ali. Ali, quoting Iranian sources, said that the rogue states are trying to ensure that there is no competition for their preferred puppet, US-based ‘shah’ Reza Pahlavi, if they succeed in bringing down Iran’s government:

[T]he US/Israelis are targeting a number of known leftists homes in Teheran and elsewhere in an attempt to make sure there’s no opposition to their favoured candidate once they destroy the regime. What this reveals is the degree of penetration by Mossad in Iran. What it also means is that this is not going to be an easy occupation for the US and its Israeli buddies.

Commenters disagreed with Ali for his closing assumption that there will be any occupation of Iran, easy or otherwise. It is to be hoped he is wrong on that and every likelihood he is.

But the US and Israel routinely target the homes and families of their victims. And given the Trump regime’s attacks on left figures in the US and South America, it’s entirely credible – indeed almost certain – that he will be doing the same in Iran in his criminal war.
