At Breakthrough News we believe in the power of independent media. Five mega-corporations dominate the media landscape - controlling 90% of what we read, watch and listen to. They control the news cycle, to which social media and even most “alternative” media is forced to respond. We are breaking through that cycle.
We tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities - because out of these stories we will construct a different narrative of the world, as it is and in real time.
People’s movements in every corner of the globe are changing history and shifting consciousness. But these movements barely receive any coverage from the corporate media. They need visibility. They need amplification. They need a media arm to break through.
We can be that media arm, but only with your help. Become a Patron and join us on the front lines in the battle of ideas.

It's not 'the people' in general who will engage in mass terror, it's you and your allies if you get to power - precisely b/c you know that there are *many* Iranians who aren't on your side, and that's how you will try to eliminate dissent. I don't see any evidence for the claim that the current Iranian system, objectionable as it is, has 'destroyed millions of lives in Iran and the Middle East'.

I'm really happy they voted for Raisi. I hope his economic and social policy programs work out well for Iran. They tried globalization and negotiation and a kind of neocolonial scale of inspection regime giving up alot of sovereignty and alot of economic potential (sadly and aggravatingly, ultimately in vain and at the coat of 10s maybe 100s of thousands of lives even before Covid). Rouhani, Zarif and Larijani did all they could and the public gave them 8 years and the bulk of the blame goes to imperialist US and E3. The people decided to stay home and/or for a change back to the left de facto.

I've always been fascinated by Iran and that region's history. Studied it in a graduate seminar on comparative political systems and all this lines up with how I understand it. There's no such thing as a benevolent state. All states are an amalgamation of competing and cooperative interests arranged through a filter of history, culture, material and class interests and antagonisms, external forces and so on. With few exceptions, the only thing that makes one state good and another evil is the subjective assessment levied at a particular moment in time.

Outstanding explanation of the western pressures, & yes, genocidal measures against Iran for decades. Interestingly, independent travelers through Iran with KZbin channels have consistently shown Iranian hospitality, bustling markets & generally good spirits. These have been travelers from Europe & USA, & even one Chinese woman making her way home, Overland just after C19. Of course, these are travelers simply making their way through the country following fairly direct routes. Nevertheless, they give ample evidence that Iranian people & culture are friendly, hospitable & NO WAY resemble anything in Western media.

A coup by Sepah seems to be the only remedy for the dying regime...but for how long?...btw... that Harandi dares to mention "free speech" in and of itself is outrageously shameless... being the mouthpiece for a theocratical dictatorship and mourn the death of free speech in the west, is only hilarious...

And also put in place multiple redundancies to keep energy, which includes fuels. That do not need to be imported or taken from by force. Like that which is happening in Syria. Which is being occupied by the US and proxies. With stable energy. Comes stability to be self sufficient in almost everything a country could need. I have one such energy infrastructure plan.

I'm just so sorry to hear how far the BBC among other networks has fallen with regard to Iran. I was especially interested in your account contrasting BBC domestic and World Service output. In the face of the evident crumbling of BBC news in the UK, the myth remains of the solidity of the World Service, presumably from people who do not listen to it, or who are confined to its English language output, and, most of all, are without any other sources against which to evaluate its output. Our domestic BBC has issues in reporting on Northern Ireland accurately, let alone Yemen or Iran! Thank you for this programme and your output, especially on sanctions, and I hope the US don't police you as they have Press.tv.
