❗️According to Tasnim News Agency, US-Israeli attacks on the Pardisan neighborhood in Qom early Friday morning killed 18 residents, including an entire family of 9, with victims ranging from a one-year-old child to individuals over 65.

The strikes caused extensive damage to residential buildings: nearly ten homes were completely destroyed, about forty-five required full reconstruction, and roughly two hundred nearby units sustained minor damage.

Venting

I'm posting this to express the brutal costs of empire, of what the imperialists do in their dying cling to relavence. Each one if these people's lives are worth 1000 times more than all the blood soaked riches the West has stolen. Pahlavists see these people as sacrifices for the sake of healing their wounded egos, an arrogance that was stung by Iran standing on its own merits and principles. The monarchists are cowards who can’t fathom anything besides shivering under the puts of the powerful, like rats that subsist off the rotten meals of humans. They are terrified to look within themselves and see that their theory of humiliation for a fragment power was proven wrong by the Islamic Republic weilding power without submission to anyone.

And the imperialists are of course lashing out because they have nothing else they can do. They destroy families, tribes, entire peoples, all for the sake of a meaningless goal.

If there is one thing I want instilled in Western leftists, the thing that is probably the most difficult for them to understand, it's that the Iranian government is sacrificing everything in an effort that will eventually allow the people of the US to free themselves. The retreat of imperialism leaves the US ruling class with less access to the means which they use to maintain power, and Iran is valiantly fighting for that future.

I'm sick of hearing about "theocracy" and other excuses that western leftists use to denigrate the Iranian struggle. They need to accept that the popular struggle in Iran has taken the form of the Islamic Tepubluc and that the IRI is unquestionably one if the most morally upright nations on earth due to their sacrifice for the tangible liberation of West Asia.

This family was not sacrificed on the alter of Iranian capital or Iranian theocracy or Iranian bourgeois nationalism or any other dismissive rhetoric. This family was martyred in their people's uncompromising struggle to free their entire region. Their blood was spilled by Western empire who only seeks to consume for the sake of consumption in an endless glutinous rampage.

I urge my comrades to remember their faces to the best of your ability.

I saw this picture and thought "ah, what a lovely family spending time together." Fucking hell. I am shaken with sadness, pain, and fury reading that they've been killed. By the fucking imperialists. It never stops and I feel so sick to my stomach that this continues. My hatred for my own country grows and grows with each day. I'm so tired of seeing families like these just absolutely destroyed while the bourgeois rapists, cannibals, and murderers sit in their ivory towers. I want to see every last one of them hang just like Mussolini. I hope we spare not a single one of these bastards. May Allah keep this lovely family in his grace, benevolence, and comfort, along with the countless others who have been martyred by the evil regime. May the Islamic Resistance's resolve be ever hardened and absolute in its endeavor to depose Western tyranny.

Death to America.
