Caitlin Johnstone: "Why Don't You Criticize Iran??" (open.substack.com)

I don’t criticize Iran because I do not want to feed into an imperial war propaganda campaign for a horrific agenda that I do not support. I want to focus my criticisms on the power structure under which I actually live, because that is what one does when one is not a groveling bootlicker, and because the power structure under which I live happens to be the most abusive tyrant on the world stage.

What we are seeing is a return of the "muslim bad" psy-op from October 2001. You'd have to be nuts to participate in it.

Some Muslims are ok, if they do our dirty work and funnel our business men plenty of money.
