Don't get me wrong there's definitely some issues in Iran. But it's pretty obvious to anyone with a functioning brain the Israeli mass rape torture prisons are far far worse.
Newspapers will always focus and magnify issues of an adversary America "needs to liberate". They use the manufactured consent and dehumanization of the target country to bomb the entire country to rubble. Destroy all the infrastructure. Thousands or millions starve to death.
Another tried and true classic is lying about mass rape like our media recently did for Israel. That has actually happened quite a few times in the past when consent needed to be manufactured to invade a country and murder a population.
'2011 Libyan rape allegations'
'Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court Luis Moreno Ocampo said "we have information that there was a policy to rape in Libya those who were against the government.'
And afterwards:
'Investigations by Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch[1] and Doctors Without Borders[2] did not find evidence that mass rapes had occurred.'
