The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - The Iran Revolution

00:00:00.000 Okay, and we are live. Welcome everyone to this special episode of TNT Live. I'm Daniel Borman.

00:00:07.280 Why it is not with us this week. Instead, I have two special guests as we're talking a special

00:00:11.780 topic, the Iran revolution. A lot of you asked me, how do you, Whitey McWhite guy from Canada, 0.66

00:00:18.440 get such knowledge about Iran? 80 to 90% of the answer is below me right now. Sia Sufi,

00:00:25.760 refugee extraordinaire. Sia spent time in some political prisons back in Iran during the Green

00:00:32.320 Movement and came to Canada where we met. But that is a nice introduction of him. Instead,

00:00:37.400 I will give his favorite introduction, which he has never had any problems with,

00:00:40.720 is Sia is one of the top 30 traders of 2016, as listed by the IRGC. And with me is also Sanna

00:00:48.420 Ibrahimi, who's working really hard to make the top 30 traders 2022 on the IRGC's list.

00:00:54.280 You'll get there, you'll get there. You'll get there. Sia, Sia's, so Sia and I actually met

00:00:59.680 doing stand-up comedy before we got in to start yelling at the governments, all of them, all the

00:01:05.100 ones we don't like. So still 99% of them. And Sanna has become a minor celebrity in, in the

00:01:12.500 Nyack circles as, you know, I guess the country's number one Nyack hunter and the exposure of 1.00

00:01:18.160 democracy. So Sia, it's nice to see you. While I go and do some administrative work, give us a good

00:01:27.100 background of, I guess, how you got into political activism. And as someone who spent a lot of time

00:01:34.880 in Iran and was part of a revolution there, what do you see as the difference between this

00:01:41.640 and the previous ones? Well, the difference is obvious. Before we get into that, I want to hear

00:01:48.480 about the story of how you basically exposed Negar Murtazavi, if you can get into that while Daniel's

00:01:55.320 doing that thing. Yeah. Negar Murtazavi claimed there was a bomb threat where she was supposed to

00:02:02.280 give a speech. So, um, she was invited for a speech for, it was a talk, um, at the University

00:02:10.560 of Chicago. And when we were informed, we were like trying to, there were, there was like a lot of

00:02:18.580 people, um, who were of course, uh, complaining and we started like sending emails to the university

00:02:26.160 and event planners and saying that, Hey, this is not the right person you want to talk to when it

00:02:33.500 comes to this situation in Iran. And we even sent them like evidence. Here is this talk. Here is that

00:02:40.280 news and all of this. And that's why we don't want her. Um, and, um, what happened was that I think

00:02:50.100 they were completely aware of that. Um, and the university, um, said that, okay, so one of the

00:02:57.440 things, um, that is like very, uh, core value for the university of Chicago, the politics department

00:03:04.400 is the freedom of speech. So they said that, um, we can cancel this, but what we can do is add another

00:03:13.340 speaker, um, with a different point of view and like have a panel, um, add a moderator and then you

00:03:21.560 can ask your questions. Um, and that's what we can do to help you. And we're like, okay, okay. Um, so we

00:03:30.020 can go, we can watch. Yeah. One is enough. Yeah. Um, and this was all promised until, um, the day of the

00:03:40.260 event, which is October 18, um, October 18th, I received an email because I registered for the

00:03:46.400 event. Um, you, you could get an, um, like admission, um, for as like someone who is not, who doesn't

00:03:55.140 have any affiliation with the university of Chicago. So I received an email saying that, um, just in

00:04:02.060 order to have a constructive discussion, we want to move the event to virtual because they knew that

00:04:08.700 like a lot of people are going to be there. Yep. Um, so they moved everything to virtual. And then,

00:04:16.220 uh, they said that we are going to send you, um, an email at three, the event was like at, um,

00:04:22.360 three 30, they said, okay, we are going to send you an email at three and send you a link for Zoom.

00:04:30.380 And then, um, at three, the email that I received, um, was a link that when I clicked,

00:04:37.520 you went and asked me for my affiliation with the university of Chicago. So basically they even

00:04:43.600 eliminated the general admission. So if you're not out of the university of Chicago, you cannot go.

00:04:51.500 And they didn't even let us in. So a lot of people were not allowed to be there. Um, and then, um,

00:04:58.400 well, people were not happy. The only thing that they, they were allowed to do was going there. Um,

00:05:05.480 just be present outside of the building and protest. So, um, of course that day I went there. Um,

00:05:14.720 and a lot of other people, friends, they were there, um, reporters, police, everything,

00:05:20.620 everything sound, seemed very normal. It was like a normal protest. It was nothing called police was

00:05:27.380 there just to watch. Um, and then we went back, um, it was done. Of course, we couldn't even see it

00:05:34.340 because it wasn't even a live video for us, um, to watch. They said, we're gonna put it on YouTube

00:05:41.880 later. So we weren't even able to watch it as like live. Um, so after that, of course, the things

00:05:50.620 that she always say not unexpected, whatever was the first, just to, uh, explain, she is a mouse piece

00:05:59.500 of the Islamic Republic in, uh, Western media. She was the one who said, uh, the flights, uh, that the,

00:06:08.180 uh, IRGC shut down. It was like, uh, uh, first she was, she said it was a technical difficulty and

00:06:15.200 all sorts of things. Basically, she is the mouse piece of the regime in Western media. Well, to be

00:06:20.060 fair, it wasn't technical difficulty. It was technically difficult to fly a plane. Yeah.

00:06:23.900 Yeah. Yeah. This is sorry. Go ahead. Um, she even like, uh, continued with praising the IRGC for being

00:06:33.260 so transparent and sending out an explanation. God bless him. Yeah. Um, after that, it was like

00:06:41.960 October 18th, we were mad. We were upset, but like it ended and we're like, okay.

00:06:46.620 Can we lose Santa for a second?

00:06:52.260 What happened?

00:06:53.620 I think Negar Mortazavi got into the computer into this. So in layman's terms for, you know,

00:06:59.420 the Canadians watching, we'll let you continue. But the, the, the Islamic Republic has a very

00:07:05.100 complicated propaganda network in the West. They have a, let's say they're id, like they have press TV,

00:07:11.500 whose job is it to be like the Islamic Republic is great. The Taliban is great. Everything that's 1.00

00:07:16.540 that, that is wrong. Yeah. Press TV is the official organ of the Islamic Republic, but they have people

00:07:23.200 in New York times. They have people in, uh, Nyack in the independent in many other Reuters.

00:07:31.100 Reuters. Yeah. Reuters. Facebook, a lot of Facebook, uh, middle management fact checkers. And, uh,

00:07:39.640 yeah, I'm still shadow banned. Twitter. From the day after the revolution started,

00:07:45.780 I got shadow banned for a post in 2020 and I'm still. Okay. Send out, send out, send me a message

00:07:55.360 later because I have friends at Facebook that I can connect you with. Okay. Okay. Ooh. Okay. Yeah.

00:08:01.940 So to, to say like, yeah, there's the crazy regime kills, the press TV ones, like, like everything is 0.98

00:08:07.960 the fault of the Jews. The Islamic Republic is great. We're going to bring apart the, the, the, 1.00

00:08:12.320 the apocalypse. Imam Mehdi is coming back. It's going to be a great time. No singing and dancing, 1.00

00:08:15.900 but then they have their suit wearing faction. The Nyack, Quincy Institute, Trita Parsi,

00:08:21.700 Negar Marta Zavi, these people whose job it is to say, as people who want peace and stability,

00:08:29.260 and we're anti-imperialist. Um, here's why we want to give the Islamic Republic billions of dollars

00:08:36.880 to the Iran deal. And a nuclear weapon. Basically what they do is they water down what the regime 0.59

00:08:42.700 officially says. Okay. The regime officially puts a clock in the middle of a square in Tehran that

00:08:49.140 says this is the clock to destruction of Israel, 20 months. And then they come on TV, Negar Marta Zavi

00:08:56.940 and her friends come on TV and say, yeah, these are just symbolic acts, just trying to show that

00:09:02.760 they're not afraid. And it's because Israel is probably going to attack. That's how they talk. 0.87

00:09:07.940 That's how they flip the script. That's all they do. Yeah. That's, that's essentially what we're,

00:09:15.420 you know, we're dealing with is, is the thing. So what we got back to this one at the height of the

00:09:19.960 revolution, this woman, Negar Marta Zavi, who pretends to be this exile journalist, which is another

00:09:25.700 game that regime plays is they'll arrest certain people in their country. Oh, it took us years to

00:09:31.540 figure that out. Yeah. So they can have this sort of cover of like, oh, this was a dissident journalist,

00:09:37.860 right? So they arrest you, then they release you, you come to the West and you have this clout of,

00:09:44.500 I'm an exile journalist. Listen, as a critic of the regime, I say we need to give them billions of

00:09:50.380 dollars. And there's a few people who play this game. That's so Negar is one of them. And so yeah, 0.82

00:09:56.620 so she had scheduled this event to be an expert of the revolution. And people were of course upset

00:10:02.460 because she is not on the side of the revolutionaries. She's quite, I mean, her career has been

00:10:08.320 propagating. Disgusting. Now, sorry, continue. 0.99

00:10:11.420 So everything, when everything was normal, on October 19, in the morning, Negar Marta Zavi

00:10:21.340 tweeted something. And her reference was like a link to a student magazine. There was an article

00:10:28.380 saying that there was a bomb threat yesterday at the Institute of Politics. And that was the reason 0.98

00:10:38.700 that the event went virtual. And Negar Marta Zavi started like attacking Iranian diaspora. It was like, 0.63

00:10:45.900 oh, this is how educated people are. They're threatening me to like kill me, this and that. 0.87

00:10:52.060 This is a like campaign, harassment, whatever, whatever. 0.95

00:10:57.980 Low is me.

00:10:59.900 They like playbook.

00:11:02.140 I'll translate it for the, for the Americans. Negar Marta Zavi would be their equivalent of 0.99

00:11:06.860 Taylor Lorenz, Canadians, Rachel Gilmore. It's the, all criticism of me is not.

00:11:11.500 Bubba Wallace.

00:11:11.980 It's harassment.

00:11:12.620 Right?

00:11:13.420 Yeah.

00:11:14.620 If you criticize me in any way, you're harassing me. That's basically what she says. So I saw that

00:11:23.340 and this started like going viral. And I was like, how is that even possible? Because

00:11:29.740 as someone who lives here as a student, anything that happens in Chicago, especially related to the

00:11:36.860 university, we receive a message, receive a text, receive an email based on what you choose, saying

00:11:46.540 that, hey, this time and this place is not safe. So don't go there. We will keep you updated. And then

00:11:53.660 they will like update you. And this goes like something as simple as, oh, there is this liquid

00:12:00.940 on the ground in that street. Don't go there. Or like, there's a cable on the ground. It could be

00:12:09.260 dangerous. Don't go there.

00:12:10.380 Yeah. So like for something like a bomb threat, they would evacuate a building, inform all the

00:12:19.420 students, all the staff. And this would go viral on like all the local news stations.

00:12:27.660 Yeah.

00:12:28.380 But I noticed like I started looking it up nowhere, absolutely nowhere covered such a, such news

00:12:38.780 about like UChicago. And I started asking students who were at UChicago, I was like,

00:12:45.500 hey, did you receive any message yesterday? They said no, nothing. I was like, they say there was a

00:12:53.100 bomb threat. And everyone was shocked. Like, I was communicating with people at the University of

00:12:59.580 Chicago. And we were all shocked, not only because we were there that day, and no one like nothing seemed

00:13:07.820 abnormal. They didn't like, tell us, hey, evacuate this place. This place is dangerous. It's a, it's a threat.

00:13:15.100 How did you figure it out though? How did you figure out that it was a hoax? Absolutely.

00:13:19.980 Okay. This made me very suspicious. And I was like, okay, there is no way, no way that this happened,

00:13:29.900 especially that the email that we received was like, hey, to have a constructive discussion. And,

00:13:35.900 you know, I noticed this pattern of like, oh, she tweeted something. And after her,

00:13:42.620 Nayak, everyone, they started attacking Iranians. Oh, these are like, see, these are the people who 1.00

00:13:49.020 are protesting. These are like the people like war, they are, they are warmongers. They are like

00:13:54.220 violent, they're this and that. And I was like, you know, no, there's no way. And I even tweeted,

00:14:00.060 and I even coded her tweet. And I said, hey, I know that you're lying. And I promise that I will prove it

00:14:09.020 to you. And I started like talking to friends at UChicago following up. And this happened, this went on

00:14:18.060 for like, one or two days. And then I was like, okay, it doesn't hurt. Let me just call the university

00:14:26.620 police. Because these are public information, they have to tell you. I was like walking to school,

00:14:35.100 I called and I was like, hey, this is like, and this is, is this what happened on October 18th

00:14:42.540 around this, like this time? Did you receive like a bomb threat call or something like that?

00:14:49.820 And the officer was shocked. Like, she was like, what? Bomb threat? And I said, yes. She said,

00:14:58.300 okay, wait a second. And then I was on hold. And then she came back. She was like,

00:15:03.340 no, there was no such a thing. There was no bomb threat, man.

00:15:08.460 Chicago, for some reason, it seems like there's something in the water. People want to do hoaxes there.

00:15:14.940 Yeah, I mean, what I like that. That was one of the first memes I made. You would have been

00:15:18.860 probably made a Negamortizavi meme of like, what was it? And then they came like,

00:15:24.380 there I was leaving near Chicago at 2am, you know, and then like two monarchists came up behind me.

00:15:33.580 And they yelled, this is Pallavi country. And like, I was scared.

00:15:37.420 So yeah, so this is, I put, I put, I'll just make an administrative thing. I put it,

00:15:41.660 I put the article about this bomb threat hoax in the chat. If you're watching on Twitter,

00:15:46.140 I can't, you can't do that on Twitter, but I did in Twitter, put in the chat, a link to the YouTube

00:15:50.460 where you can go watch it there and get that and comment along. So on that theme of comments that

00:15:55.900 we should take seriously from people, um, June D Jensen asked, what about the 50,000 protesters

00:16:01.660 about to be executed? Apparently the government just voted yes to this. Is this true? I think CSU

00:16:06.220 you understand, explain to me how the government works. I think you can. Yeah. The parliament

00:16:11.020 doesn't vote to execute anybody. Okay. That was just a show of solidarity that all of the parliament,

00:16:19.020 there is no, basically the chance that people were always, no reformist, no fundamentalist.

00:16:25.900 They're all the same. All of the parliament came out condemning the protests and said, basically,

00:16:32.540 the regime should, uh, capital punishment, the harshest punishment possible. They didn't say

00:16:39.900 how many people they, they just said basically, but with people who are doing this stuff, the rioting,

00:16:46.300 the regime should punish them harshly. And, but the parliament doesn't order executions.

00:16:53.020 It was just a show of solidarity. Um, what I think is that, well, see the situation in Iran,

00:17:01.340 the government in Iran is not a normal government. It's not like you think, oh,

00:17:06.220 it's going to be the court. And then they go through this legal process, this and that. No,

00:17:12.060 this government is a government that has executed thousands, thousands of people back in the day.

00:17:20.380 And it is capable. It is capable of doing that again.

00:17:24.700 Oh, absolutely. I'm just saying this 15,000 people that the parliament,

00:17:31.100 the news came out that the parliament said, execute them. That's not how it goes.

00:17:36.620 The system goes in a different way, but they, they have killed before they have killed thousands in 0.53

00:17:43.740 weeks prisoners. So it's not that they won't do it. It's just that that news came out. And then a lot of

00:17:51.340 regime mouthpieces jumped on it that, oh, it's a hoax. It's a hoax. And it was like,

00:17:56.140 no, it was just badly reported. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Because like,

00:18:00.700 okay, there are almost 15,000, if not more people arrested, and we know that they're capable of

00:18:09.100 doing this. And now that like, they are saying all together that you're going to execute them,

00:18:15.740 there is a chance that they actually do it. So yeah, basically, that that show of force was like,

00:18:23.900 there is not a single division. There is nobody that says in the within the regime that says,

00:18:33.020 well, maybe there's nobody, we're all in it to win it until the end.

00:18:38.300 Yeah. And it's for people like, see, I did a great job explaining this to me back in the day,

00:18:43.900 you were talking years ago, like, the whole thing is, is a complicated, you know, fake democracy.

00:18:49.500 Anyway, it's a Ponzi scheme.

00:18:51.020 Yeah, it's a fun. But it's all controlled by the Supreme Leader anyway, and the Ayatollah,

00:18:56.300 through, you know, a mechanism called the Guardian Council, which he appoints himself. So there,

00:19:01.740 you know, it is one organ in like, so when we talk about fundamentalists or reformists,

00:19:07.820 this is the two sides of the propaganda they use, right? Prestige, as I mentioned,

00:19:13.420 that'd be fundamentalists, whereas Nayak, Quincy Institute, Negar Morte Zavi, all these names are

00:19:18.540 ringing up. They're the reformists. They're the mullahs in a suit, let's say. Yeah. And for a long

00:19:23.980 time, the way they've tricked the Western world is they've installed hardline government presidents,

00:19:31.420 like the current one, Raisi, who was part of the mass executions in 1988. So he's done it before.

00:19:37.740 Versus Rouhani, who is a reformist, oh, so benevolent and peaceful. He only executed a few

00:19:44.460 thousand. The head of the regime's security for 20 years, Rouhani, is now a reformist.

00:19:54.140 Okay. Yeah. But yeah, but that's the interesting thing, though. I look at these protests. The first

00:20:01.660 question you asked about what's the difference? It's gradual. Okay. It's like dipping your toe in the

00:20:08.780 water. Okay. First we had in, what was it, 99, we had the student movement in Tehran. There was riots,

00:20:16.700 there was shootings, but it was just the university. It didn't spread out to society at all. The

00:20:25.100 society didn't know what was going on. And then it was the teachers, then it was the workers, then it was

00:20:31.660 different groups, different times came out and started basically protesting. In 2000, I would say

00:20:39.500 16, 17, it was the first time that it became kind of national a little bit, suddenly spread out. It was

00:20:46.940 supposed to be a controlled protest by the regime against Rouhani, by the other side of the regime,

00:20:55.260 that just basically it's a table that they're fighting over. It's not like, oh, who's going to help

00:21:00.380 the people? No, it's just the table they're fighting over. I want to have more. So some

00:21:06.220 groups in the regime started a protest against Rouhani, but it got out of control and it just

00:21:13.580 spread. People were like, oh, there's a protest there and nobody's shooting them. And it just went

00:21:18.540 crazy. And then 2017, it happened, 2018, 2019 was the biggest, 100 cities, small towns with like 20,

00:21:27.980 30,000 people had like four or five killed. And it was like, what? They never come out.

00:21:35.420 Everybody. And 2019 was the last one. They chanted all the stuff that we're supposed to.

00:21:43.180 Reformists, fundamentalists, your game is over. No to Gaza, no to Lebanon, my life for Iran,

00:21:50.300 every and no to Islamic Republic, every single foundation of the regime. They attacked it in 2019. 0.95

00:21:59.500 So when 2022 came. I basically like it, like basically people came out in the street.

00:22:08.620 They looked at each other and was like, yeah, yeah. All right. We're doing this because they know they're

00:22:15.100 going to get killed. A lot of them are going to get killed. So when you get in it, you have to get in 0.99

00:22:19.500 it. And this is not going to go away. Yeah, I think that's a good. Yeah, that's that's a pretty

00:22:28.140 good explanation of of the evolution of this. And and the what I've been really like, well, what's made

00:22:34.620 it sort of like, OK, it's go time for me is is the videos of unarmed protesters, you know, charging

00:22:41.500 armed with guns and being like, all right, well, yeah, that first time ever. That's when the base

00:22:49.580 the regime's authority crumbles when people are not running away from the guy with the gun.

00:22:57.340 There's like a video. It's like Benny Hill, like 40 agents running that way. And like 10, 15 seconds

00:23:04.940 later, 40 of them are running that way. And people are like, you should have just put a play of music.

00:23:10.780 Yeah, exactly. Like that's exactly what I feel is the biggest difference. See, like I moved to the

00:23:20.620 US three years ago. So I was like, I saw a lot of things there. And then when I moved here right after

00:23:28.380 that, bloody November happened. But see, that was like the first time that the government started like

00:23:36.540 shooting like that at people and killing them like that. That was the first time. And the lowest count 0.81

00:23:43.100 is 1400 in three days, the lowest count. Yeah, yeah, in minimum. And then, um, but still people were not

00:23:52.860 like people who would try to defend themselves, but they wouldn't attack. You can attack exactly.

00:23:59.660 Exactly. When they would grab somebody, people will be like, hey, don't kill him. Don't don't like

00:24:04.380 Exactly. Exactly. Because killing is hard, man. Killing takes away something from you when you decide,

00:24:11.740 okay, I have to. It's a huge step for a people to decide. We have to I guess. So until 2019,

00:24:21.660 they were still like, hey, don't kill them. Don't attack. I can't say like, still, I think I until

00:24:29.980 2019, like before bloody November happens, there were still some people who believe that reform can

00:24:38.460 happen. But then that happened. They were like, okay, no way. No, that ended it. Yeah, that completely

00:24:47.420 it was an end. And then now the people who are coming out are the people who have seen

00:24:54.380 and experienced bloody November. And with all that they decided to come out. This is not this,

00:25:01.420 this is huge. And I think knowing that you can get killed. Yeah, that's one of the problems I have 1.00

00:25:08.460 with people online who keep sharing these sad stuff with sad music. And I'm like, yeah, yeah,

00:25:15.260 I get that you're in pain. And you're here and you can't do anything. But they need anger. They knew

00:25:23.660 they were gonna get shot. Okay, everybody who goes there knows it. They don't need sympathy and sadness.

00:25:31.820 They just need you to push them and give them your anger and help them with your anger.

00:25:37.980 Yeah, that's why I that's why I started the besiegi lives don't matter movement. 1.00

00:25:41.980 Yeah, to help push the things look. Yeah, I'm gonna go to this from the chat,

00:25:48.380 because if I answer this one, we're going to be here for another 57 hours. But can one of the two

00:25:54.060 of you explain the left's unwavering support for the Iranian government often?

00:26:02.860 Would you like to take it or should I?

00:26:04.380 Okay, okay. The thing about the left, the revolution in Iran happened because socialists

00:26:15.180 in Iran taught the fundamentalists how to organize and how to demand a revolution. Fundamentalists in

00:26:22.940 Iran didn't want revolution, didn't understand them. Khomeini until 73, 74, never mentions, never says

00:26:33.180 a bad words against Shah. Even he still calls him his majesty. Why? Because he didn't have that.

00:26:41.420 Then some socialist students go see him, talk to him. They say no, we can do revolution,

00:26:46.700 you have network and everything. So socialists love a good revolution as we all know.

00:26:55.500 And Michel Foucault famously called Islamic revolution, the first postmodern revolution.

00:27:04.140 Yeah, we're moving past it. But that's the thing. The left in the West mistakes two things.

00:27:13.260 Some of them have woken up to the bad stuff that's going on in the West, a lot of the bad things that

00:27:19.500 are happening, a lot of the nasty things that the West has done to other countries and within its own

00:27:26.780 country. So a lot of people have become very cynical against their own government. And indirectly,

00:27:35.260 any country that attacks their countries, the West, they kind of feel sympathy for, for some reason.

00:27:44.220 I've talked to a lot of people and they say, yeah, this is true. This is true. And I'm like,

00:27:48.540 yeah, maybe these things are true. But there's also all of these that they don't talk about.

00:27:54.860 So there is that sympathy that they are, this revolution came from the coup,

00:28:02.540 that joke, that it came from that coup, even though the fundamentalists hated Mossadegh,

00:28:10.780 the religious hated Mossadegh and this revolution. They didn't allow a street after Mossadegh's name

00:28:17.340 until like, what? 15 years ago. Can we debunk the Mossadegh coup? Because a lot of people still

00:28:23.660 like believe. Oh, you want to get me killed? All right. I'll get me killed. Okay. 0.98

00:28:31.260 So sidebar, a lot of you have heard that, and I call this my general theory on the left and

00:28:36.860 totalitarian regimes. It's the Noam Chomsky theory, where Noam Chomsky is the founder of the

00:28:41.900 left-wing White Lives Matter movement, or white power movement, essentially. This is what I call 0.93

00:28:47.900 left-wing white power. What I mean by this is the way you determine the mental state of any of 0.79

00:28:53.420 the brown people or non-white people in the world. You go back in history and you say,

00:28:56.700 whenever there's a white person in that country, that is a determining factor in everything that

00:29:01.660 plays out in that country. And the number one example of white power when it comes to the Chomsky 0.85

00:29:06.620 is the coup against Mossadegh in 1953, which is blamed for, you know, if when the regime like

00:29:14.220 kills children and you take this to a socialist to say, well, the reason they're doing this is in

00:29:18.700 response to British and American interference in 1953. However... No, Khomeini started his movement

00:29:25.100 in opposition to women voting. Yes. He didn't start to avenge Mossadegh. Okay. So Mossadegh wasn't

00:29:32.620 elected. He was appointed by the Shah, right? Like, what do you think? Do you think the Shah just came out of 0.91

00:29:36.460 nowhere? Like the Shah came into like Reza Shah, the original came into power around the first world 1.00

00:29:41.340 war. His son is the one we're talking about here in 1953. Do you think he just like left and then

00:29:45.820 like Mossadegh was elected and then he rode in on a horse because he didn't like socialism and the

00:29:49.500 Americans sold him to? No. Mossadegh had nationalized the oil industry without the means to support a

00:29:54.700 nationalized oil industry. So the country went into poverty. People don't like... The economy crashed

00:30:00.220 crashed. It crashed hard. And what happened was the same parliament that voted Mossadegh into office 0.98

00:30:08.700 as the prime minister, this... He wanted more power because people were protesting in the streets

00:30:14.460 and he wanted... He asked for more power from the parliament and the parliament said no. So Mossadegh

00:30:20.540 famously comes out of the parliament, Baharistan, comes in the middle of the street and says that's not the

00:30:25.260 parliament. This is the parliament. Very Ahmadinejad move. But so it's the same parliament that voted him

00:30:31.500 in, that made him prime minister. So he dissolves the parliament and until the next election. So what

00:30:40.540 happened is in Iranian constitution at the time when the prime minister dissolves the parliament,

00:30:50.300 the king has the right to remove the prime minister, install an interim government until the election.

00:31:00.140 That's a right of the king in Iranian constitution at the time. You can search it. It's there.

00:31:08.220 So king does that because the country was going to crap. So he sends an officer to Mossadegh's office, 0.82

00:31:18.300 to house and delivers the thing to him that you are hereby removed from your office. And so Mossadegh orders

00:31:25.740 that guy to get arrested. He throws that guy in jail, the messenger. And tomorrow he goes to his office,

00:31:34.140 calls the cabinet and says, yeah, this has happened. I have been removed, but I'm not going.

00:31:40.140 And several of his ministers just leave, including minister of justice who was like, yeah, this is illegal.

00:31:53.180 And several others, but several other hardcore, basically people who were around them were like,

00:31:59.020 no, we're going to stay. And that's the story. Mossadegh took power illegally, 0.63

00:32:06.140 basically refused to give power illegally away. And for the three days,

00:32:12.700 it was Mossadegh's coup that was in power. And Iranian army removes Mossadegh. Yes,

00:32:21.500 there was one American involved helping with the logistics strategy. Okay. You basically helping with

00:32:30.460 the thing, but Iranian army generals did everything and they were planning it from way before Iranian

00:32:38.460 generals, because they knew what was going to happen. So that's the real story, but it doesn't serve any

00:32:45.900 narrative. So yeah, this is often used. Yeah, this is, this is usually an excuse. Yeah. So this is what,

00:32:53.180 like a, let's say reformist would use as an excuse to say, oh yeah, we all do things. And yes, the IRGC

00:33:00.620 might be interfering in Yemen, but remember when the Americans and the British overthrew the

00:33:06.140 democratic, radically elected government in Iran, which everyone loved, they just lied. Right. And 1.00

00:33:11.340 this is a common lie that perpetrates every university, every Noam Chomsky lecture. But a lot

00:33:18.380 of people on the right. And I'm not saying the West hasn't done crap to Iran. They did a lot of 1.00

00:33:23.180 Guadalupe go search Guadalupe where the president of France sits down with the president of the United

00:33:31.980 States Carter at the time and Margaret Thatcher and convinces them that Shah has to go. Yeah. And

00:33:40.380 Khomeini is a liberal who's going to go into his office and teach religion to people. Yes. Back when

00:33:50.460 the world was a lot more nice. They did this to us. And Carter was a moron. If you read CIA's report

00:33:58.220 on Khomeini at the time, go find this and read it. It's like a teenager with emotional problems wrote it.

00:34:06.940 Like Shah's really bad. And like Khomeini sounds like a good guy. And it's like, who I honestly,

00:34:16.060 like before these, like in the past few years, my mind really shifted on CIA and all the, like,

00:34:24.940 I thought they knew everything. And then I read the reports and I'm like, what?

00:34:29.500 Yeah. People often are, I find that's the biggest, the biggest red pill to me is when you find out the

00:34:37.900 feed, like the people in charge of the deep state, aren't that smart. Like when you're like, what's

00:34:42.220 it like, this is why I don't take much of the people yelling at the deep state too seriously

00:34:45.820 is because they're like, they're going to do this. And they know, and Justin Trudeau's in on it.

00:34:50.300 These people are morons. These people are morons. And, and if you think Justin Trudeau's in on it, 1.00

00:34:54.780 then there's a plan concocted by Justin Trudeau. So I'm not scared of it. Like, yeah, they still

00:35:00.300 want you to eat bugs and use solar power. I get that. But like, you're, you're like, you're not

00:35:05.980 dealing with like, you know, some sort of super genius. You're doing. And France's reason was the

00:35:12.940 same as the reason they removed Gaddafi energy and money because Shah was the one who started OPEC.

00:35:21.020 Yeah. In, in 1978, I think, or six.

00:35:26.300 Um, no, it would have been 60 because the OPEC oil crisis is 73, 74 over the, okay, early, early 70s,

00:35:33.020 I think. I'm not good with dates. It was early 70s. But he starts late 60s, early 70s would have

00:35:38.460 been its start because it was the crisis was triggered by the war. It was a direct response 0.81

00:35:45.020 to, uh, the Western technology monopoly and how they would sell. Like there's an interview.

00:35:52.140 Shah actually talks about it. That is like, Hey, you're deciding the price of oil. And he was like,

00:35:56.700 yeah, but any technology we're buying, you choosing arbitrary prices on it and selling us like several

00:36:03.740 times more than it, it actually should be. So this is our way of basically leveling the playing field.

00:36:12.300 And OPEC was one of the reasons he did. And yeah, he was really changing Middle East into something 0.96

00:36:19.420 else. Yeah. It's, it is a real shame that we got, you know, Khomeini. Although his writings on 0.97

00:36:25.100 when to fornicate with a camel are very enlightening if you're wondering. Yeah, dude. 1.00

00:36:28.860 Yeah. Don't, don't knock it until no, no, no. I mean, where else do we get the wisdom that after

00:36:33.900 you, after you have sex with the camel to not sell that meat in your own village, but a different 0.98

00:36:39.340 village. 40 kilometers, 40 kilometers, 40, 40 kilometers. See, if I, I would have thought just 0.99

00:36:45.740 20, but that's why I'm on this evil. That's why you should read, Khomeini. No, I should read books, 1.00

00:36:52.380 man. Read books. Guys, go on amazon.com, read the Ayatollah's book, learn which animals you

00:36:58.540 should and shouldn't have sex with and how, um, yeah. The traditions, the rituals before and after,

00:37:05.420 but see like, what is so astonishing to me is that how they changed the narrative completely

00:37:14.940 and then started brainwashing children at school since like the beginning. Yeah. That's how, like,

00:37:23.260 I did not have any idea about like a lot of things that I know now by the end of my high

00:37:29.420 school because I was completely brainwashed. I was completely brainwashed to think that like,

00:37:35.180 oh, Mossadegh was such a loved person and like Khomeini was so... Nobody came out in his support.

00:37:42.380 Nobody came out in his support. Nobody talks about it. Two years before when they removed him,

00:37:47.020 hundreds of thousands came into the streets. Yeah. When they removed him second time, not a single

00:37:52.300 person came. And he had declared martial law, by the way. But yeah, go ahead. Like, no one thinks that

00:37:58.780 there were, there were a lot of groups. Like, one of the things that I think it's underrated, um, is how

00:38:10.220 MEK affected this whole revolution. Because they were the first group who started like the whole 0.87

00:38:17.580 armed conflicts, like killing people like against Pallavi. And they had a lot of influence on this.

00:38:26.060 And then Khomeini, what he does like right after comes to the office and like takes the power,

00:38:31.980 completely eliminates all of them. Bye. Yeah. Thank you. Bye.

00:38:37.420 Yeah. I mean, like we don't like Khomeini, you know, the only good thing he did is he did kill

00:38:44.300 all the socialists and MEK people. Hey man, come on. But, uh, no, the thing is, dude, 0.81

00:38:52.300 a lot of the MEK kids, they were like 14. They were arrested for passing out flyers. They weren't

00:38:58.780 ideologues. They didn't know shit. They arrested them. They kept them in their prison. And in 88, 0.99

00:39:05.020 they were just like, Hey, you know what? These ones need to be executed. 0.99

00:39:11.100 4,000 lowest count. 4,000 lowest count in a span of a summer. Prisoners who never, 1.00

00:39:18.860 none of them had death sentence. So yeah, but Khomeini, what they did was in three years after

00:39:25.980 the revolution, they completely emptied the country of every politically active group.

00:39:33.420 They shut down the universities immediately for three years for cultural revolution. So all the

00:39:39.420 students are gone. They, uh, shut down, uh, Mujahideen MEK, and they started to go after socialist

00:39:47.020 groups and socialist groups, one by one would sell each other out to get closer to the regime in the

00:39:54.220 hope of, yeah, they're going to keep us. And it's like, no, they're not. They're just going to get

00:40:00.300 rid of you. And, uh, so that's why you see a 10 year silence, absolute silence in Iran space, because

00:40:07.660 they killed everybody or they escaped and the rest went to war and died, all the youth. 0.95

00:40:12.620 Yeah. And they used the cover of the Iran Iraq war to execute more people. So, I mean, it's,

00:40:19.980 it's, it's nearly impossible to get an official body count on who died because of what, because,

00:40:25.500 you know, you, you use the cover of one of the most brutal wars in human history to, to execute

00:40:31.260 your own people. Pretty easy to then fudge the numbers and say they died in the battlefield.

00:40:35.900 Um, you know, especially in the pre-digital age, um, you have, you know, you have these problems.

00:40:42.140 So let's, let's, let's fast forward.

00:40:43.420 Are you saying Sana, sorry, you wanted to say something.

00:40:45.500 Yeah. I want to say like, they mostly killed them and at night, nighttime, and then they're

00:40:53.100 buried, they're buried their bodies. Um, like all together, they mess, they.

00:40:58.220 Without telling their parents.

00:41:00.060 Yeah. They killed them all like in a group and then buried their bodies. And, um, like, you think,

00:41:07.500 we know, but a lot of people, um, non-Iranians, they think like this has just started, but that

00:41:16.220 has been like this since the beginning, like the torture in jail.

00:41:20.780 It was just such a horrific shock to people that it basically, as I said, and they killed

00:41:27.420 so many of the youth that it just went silent, but that horror remained and people never forgot.

00:41:34.460 They charged those parents for the bullets, by the way.

00:41:39.340 That was the coolest part.

00:41:40.540 Yeah. I mean, this is, it's standard, I mean, horrifying, but it's totalitarian takeover.

00:41:45.900 It's, you know, you, you start a new regime. And yeah, in, uh, 80, I think 81, 80, late 80,

00:41:55.420 I think, or 81, uh, was the mandatory hijab that came with, uh, Ruhani, President Ruhani,

00:42:03.820 the reformists started it in government buildings and pushed it. And gangs, uh, started to roam the

00:42:11.740 streets and whoever didn't have a hijab, they would just attack. And the chant was,

00:42:17.340 Yoru Sari, Yatu Sari. Basically either a hijab or a smack in the head. So that's how they did it. 1.00

00:42:25.420 So, yeah, I think because a lot of people, I think it's a good point to sort of extend it today,

00:42:30.300 because a lot of people, um, are going to dishonestly sell this anti-hijab, uh,

00:42:36.700 rally that is going right. Whereas, you know, I think a lot of us try and say like, no, no,

00:42:42.780 no, it's full on revolution. Um, but there, there is something to the, the people in the streets

00:42:49.500 started literally two weeks after started to chant, uh, hijab, basically hijab is just an excuse.

00:42:59.980 The regime is the target people in the streets of every city started chanting and they still were

00:43:05.420 going outside. Yeah. Hijab and the women. Okay. Yeah. That's the apologists who say,

00:43:11.580 look, Oh, this is Islamophobia. Oh no. Yeah. Oh, the Islamophobia argument was pretty. And that 1.00

00:43:19.900 the same thing is the reason why a lot of the Arab countries in the region are silent.

00:43:24.940 They're kind of worried. They're kind of worried on, on that too. I mean, one of the propaganda

00:43:30.060 things from the beginning was Islamist would defend the revolution, not by saying I side with

00:43:35.820 what the regime is doing there. They would do the, what about ism and the classic one about ism is 0.88

00:43:39.580 like, if a, why are so many people only mad when Iran enforces the hijab, but not mad when countries

00:43:46.220 like France or India do things against the hijab, like, right. So it's like basically saying, you know,

00:43:52.300 laws in France and laws in Iran are the same, but you're Islamophobic for only supporting one side of

00:43:57.260 it, which is like, it's obviously absurd, um, on, on its face. The one thing I do want to get,

00:44:03.900 get into maybe for a bit of sophistry here, but do you think the regime could survive if it took the

00:44:10.940 mandatory hijab law away? Because it already has, it already has the regime after the win against Wales, 1.00

00:44:18.140 the official, uh, uh, uh, Irna, the, uh, Iranian, uh, the government's news agency, right. The two of

00:44:27.020 the, no, that's the state TV and radio, uh, their official news agency, uh, published a few photos,

00:44:35.580 like people celebrating in the street for the world cup win. And in some of those photos were women

00:44:43.340 without hijab. So the regime is already signaling, see, see, uh, hijab. There's no hijab. Like, no, 0.90

00:44:52.140 not. Yeah. Okay. So because I mean, the, the argument there would be that, um, the hijab is such

00:44:59.020 a visible symbol of the regime. It's also a functional symbol of totalitarianism. It gives the

00:45:03.980 excuse, um, for the regime to be in every aspect of your life, to dominate your women, um, and provide 0.95

00:45:10.380 subservience to them that, yeah, but that's, yeah, exactly. That's one of the arguments that's been

00:45:15.980 made. Sorry. Continue. No, I, I think that was near the end. It's like, this is the sort of. Yeah. I

00:45:21.820 heard some, uh, some ladies say something really discussing was like, yeah, men in Iran have been,

00:45:28.380 uh, basically accessories to this. They've basically said nothing as if men in Iran were happy when their

00:45:37.020 sisters or mothers or daughters were being taken away and they can't do nothing in the face of a

00:45:42.940 19 year old with a gun. Like men were happy. And also I remember getting my jeans, uh, razored.

00:45:53.660 Boys would get arrested for short sleeves in the street. They would get arrested for wearing jeans.

00:46:01.340 They're every, every once in a while, there was a period that they would just throw these crazies in

00:46:07.900 the street and they would attack and grab anybody. If you had a weird hair, they would grab you and take

00:46:15.740 you everything. Everybody took it from this regime. Women on a different level also. Like to this day, 0.98

00:46:24.940 men cannot wear shorts in the street or like, yeah. Like they can't. Yeah. It's like, yeah. It's sort of

00:46:37.580 like, I was, I was thinking like, I was writing something the other day and I was thinking about

00:46:42.380 this. That's exactly how it is. Like they, this is a symbolic, like this is symbolic. They use women 0.91

00:46:51.020 to like show their power, show their control over people, but that's how it is for everyone. Like for

00:46:58.700 every human being in Iran, they are, they are oppressive for towards anyone, like no matter, 1.00

00:47:06.700 regardless of your gender. But like I was lashed. Okay. For walking in the street with a girl lashed. 0.97

00:47:17.100 Okay. It's ridiculous when you think about it. But yeah, that's why I was able to write jokes and 0.97

00:47:27.500 stuff about it because otherwise you go crazy. But it's the stupidity of thinking it was just 1.00

00:47:34.300 one sided. Like, oh, this ethnic group or that ethnic group or that religion or this religion or 1.00

00:47:40.780 women or everybody in every way imaginable, anybody who wasn't exactly on the same payments

00:47:49.180 as the regime was taking it every day. Yeah. That's, that's, no, that's a good point. All

00:47:56.220 right. So let's, let's bring this to where this is sort of important to the West and plays into

00:48:01.260 something that we've all been involved in, which is

00:48:03.420 the crossover between what we've called like these reformist Nayakis and, and let's say Western 0.82

00:48:14.060 political, I'd be different political ideologies where you have, you have them not just infiltrating

00:48:19.900 the highest, which is a government. So you could say on a policy level, um, Valley Nasser and Barbara

00:48:25.420 Slavin to essentially regime assets were in the Obama administration, got the J and push for the JCPOA or the

00:48:31.420 JCPOA or the Iran deal. And, you know, got, he literally had a photo with Ray C right before he

00:48:37.580 went back. Both of them did. Both, both, both Slavin was caught in the same room and Valley Nasser,

00:48:44.700 there's a picture of him leaving the hotel, um, of, uh, uh, of this. So that's like the highest level

00:48:52.620 it gets to like the Obama administration. And you have some same kinds of people, you know, Robert O'Malley,

00:48:59.100 Ned Price, um, in the. Oh boy, O'Malley, have you seen his positions change? Iranians really did a 0.99

00:49:05.660 number on him. I mean, they went from terrible. He was the biggest appeaser of the regime. He was the

00:49:14.060 planner behind Obama's deal with the regime. And, uh, when he came, everybody was like, Oh God,

00:49:19.820 the regime's going to get another hundred billion. And now he's like, no, it's not acceptable.

00:49:25.500 Hmm. Yeah. So he's, he still hasn't done anything good, but he's been there. But there's, I think

00:49:30.860 there's another thing of like, okay, the question I guess is, why do you guys think it's so important

00:49:36.380 to fight these Nayakis to, uh, stop like, you know, Negar Mortazavi just had another appearance at UCLA 0.79

00:49:43.100 and Santa was not happy. Uh, let's say, um, is, you know, why do you, why would you say it's important?

00:49:51.660 Um, you know, do you have, do you have reasons other than it's, you know, it hurts the Iranian 1.00

00:49:56.220 people? Like you see any, can you make the case for any utility to the, to the Western world to,

00:50:00.780 to stop these reformist infiltrators? Yeah. See, like the reason that

00:50:05.580 like people in society, like non-Iranian communities have no idea of like how bad it is 1.00

00:50:15.980 and the extent of things and how it is really are these reformists that have had like so much

00:50:22.940 influence, power and media. And then when that happens, um, like one way or another,

00:50:29.820 it's going to affect the policy and politicians. And just keep that in mind that a lot of Democrats

00:50:37.820 have been backing them up throughout years. And if you go like, read about it, if you go like,

00:50:45.420 look through their funders, the foundations, like Plasher foundations, Rockefeller brothers,

00:50:52.300 if you go see that, and then from there, you go to like so many branches of Democrats,

00:50:58.140 different organizations that we've never heard of. And those have been supporting this organization

00:51:06.860 for so long to like hold the power for them. And if they get discredited and they, they are all doing

00:51:17.180 that under the name of, oh, we are like a community. So we do communities. They're the representatives of

00:51:23.740 the community of Iranian Americans. Exactly. And now they're doing everything

00:51:28.380 under that name, right? Now, if they lose that, what is the, their use, right? If you lose that,

00:51:37.020 your shield, what are you going to do? Like people are renouncing you. People don't want you.

00:51:43.500 So what are you going to do? They have to learn to code. Yeah, they have to go.

00:51:46.220 You have to learn to code. Things you're allowed to say now. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. I totally

00:51:53.660 agree. And there's also the level of people in Iran know Nayak now. Okay. People in Iran are way more

00:52:01.420 aware of what's going on than I would give them credit for. I used to give them credit for, especially

00:52:08.300 the youth, the last generation who grew up with internet, doesn't remember a world without internet.

00:52:16.140 They are on it, man. So seeing Nayak get its ass handed to it. And also there's also another aspect, 0.99

00:52:25.180 maybe that wrong solutions that are offered. Okay. There are talks like in, where was it? Germany

00:52:35.660 or where they had the representatives of like four or five separatist groups.

00:52:44.140 Iranian separatist groups talking. And it's like, so nobody else, just these guys. And it's like,

00:52:50.940 that's the thing. Nayak could basically point a lot of Western governments to wrong directions.

00:53:00.140 And I think there's another thing where they make common cause with other groups that I would

00:53:04.860 say have less than noble intentions, or maybe have fine intentions, but bad solutions, let's say,

00:53:10.460 who like to portray themselves as representative of community X. So it'd be Black Lives Matter, 0.70

00:53:16.860 you know, people like Nayak bring out the worst in them, right? The progressive Jewish movement, 1.00

00:53:21.020 Jay Street, these like, however you Iranians feel about Nayak is the same way I feel about Jay Street, like 0.93

00:53:27.580 rocket ship to the moon, to the sun. Like I, them, like, I just...

00:53:31.340 Jay Street, they've been working together. They have been working together because,

00:53:34.940 you know, undermining the Jewish community. Code Pink also. Code Pink also. Code Pink isn't like,

00:53:40.940 but Code Pink is more like press TV of the progressive Jews.

00:53:46.380 They have photos in Islamic republics, basically, what was it? It was an exhibition for something and

00:53:53.660 they had gone to, they were the guests of Islamic republics.

00:53:58.860 And it's just so funny that like this Nayaki people, they have like some core values, 1.00

00:54:05.660 and they are like all the exact same as the core values that exist in Iran, like in the government

00:54:13.100 in Iran, like anti-Semitism or whatever happens, whatever happens, it's Israel. 0.56

00:54:19.660 It's Israel. It's that. Like, no one else.

00:54:25.580 And to be fair, WR Winter is on stage.

00:54:28.300 But they do shave and wear bikinis and makeups, so... 0.93

00:54:32.380 This is a... I use my Mossad mind control powers to take control of the CIA

00:54:37.020 to inspire these color revolutions with Wraithon cloaking technology.

00:54:41.180 I do hope this is...

00:54:42.940 This is not a color revolution, my friend.

00:54:45.820 I think this guy's...

00:54:46.860 Did you hear anybody talk about any colors?

00:54:48.700 I think this was people just getting pissed off in every single city.

00:54:55.580 Yeah.

00:54:56.220 Color revolution happens usually with the elite.

00:54:59.180 Yeah. I mean, this is the thing. I don't think... I think WR Winter, I think he's trolling on a high

00:55:03.260 level and I... and he's...

00:55:05.260 Right. I'm not attacking him. I'm just saying color...

00:55:07.740 It's actually a good question because a lot of people actually have that conspiracy theory that,

00:55:12.540 oh, it's just another WEF or whatever.

00:55:15.420 That's what I wanted to get...

00:55:16.140 No, dude, WEF doesn't go to Boraz John and tell people to go to the streets.

00:55:23.740 Yeah. But I mean, the reason I brought that up is it's another thing where, like,

00:55:26.860 the morons of all sides will... this is like the new moron talking point. 1.00

00:55:31.980 From more on the far right now, like, you know, the Jackson Hinkle, I'm a mega communist idiot. 1.00

00:55:37.260 Like, he, like, make videos of, like, thousands of people protesting in California and be like, 0.99

00:55:41.820 don't they know it's a CIA color revolution? And it's like, how stupid do you have to be to think 1.00

00:55:47.020 everything is, like, a CIA plot? Like, the thing, it's like, do you not think the people inside the 1.00

00:55:51.980 country might have, like, some idea of what they're like? Like, you know, it's like, yeah, it's... but

00:55:58.620 this is, like, one of the new propaganda things. But I want to bring that out because whereas the

00:56:03.980 unhinged... what I like about the alt-right is they, like, there's no...

00:56:08.540 Okay, this is going to be interesting. 0.97

00:56:09.660 ...to say exactly what they want to say and it comes in their mouth and it's unhinged.

00:56:13.180 And everyone can see it's like, this is...

00:56:15.180 Oh, yeah, yeah, they're open.

00:56:16.540 Right? But Jackson Hinkle going, like, this is all a CIA color revolutionist balcony.

00:56:21.500 It's actually what Tritta Parsi will... he'll go and he creates a think tank called Quincy to say, 0.96

00:56:27.660 like, well, you know, people are upset and on the streets, but there is some

00:56:32.700 interference going on. Like, he'll do three paragraphs and add in some technical terms,

00:56:37.500 but you distill what Tritta Parsi and these Nike's say, and it actually is exactly what

00:56:43.580 W.R. Winter sarcastically said is, oh, it's a CIA Mossad operation where they're just tricking

00:56:49.100 the people into doing this. Like, so, like, this is one of those things where you see...

00:56:53.420 Another thing is that people seeing it in the media and everything they see in the media,

00:56:58.700 they are immediately kind of mistrusted. But the thing is, if this revolution hadn't reached

00:57:08.220 TikTok, the media would have never covered it.

00:57:11.660 Yeah, that's the thing. Like, the media is hijacked to the point that there was, like,

00:57:17.580 no way that they get, like, true, like, face of, like, okay, what's happening?

00:57:24.700 A true picture of what's happening in Iran and why it's happening. Because it's all hijacked 1.00

00:57:31.740 by, like, people that we know. They're very well known.

00:57:36.220 Yep.

00:57:38.140 So when it reached TikTok directly, then the media had no excuse. And it went, like, a billion hashtags

00:57:47.420 on TikTok or something. So they, it had, it seeped into the culture. Now they had to talk about it.

00:57:54.380 Otherwise, they wouldn't have.

00:57:56.140 Yeah, I mean, an important thing to bring up on this reformist thing is you brought up like...

00:57:59.580 Now they're not talking about it at all, really.

00:58:02.940 Like in 2019, bloody November, when, right, lowest estimate was 1400 people killed in three days,

00:58:09.660 right? Probably close to about 5000 in November by... But again, we have no way... I don't trust the IRGC.

00:58:16.060 Our friends in Iran human rights have 4000 names.

00:58:20.620 4000 names, right? So, yeah, I've heard that number as well. So, again, 4000 verified by an organization,

00:58:28.380 you know, that's why I say probably closer to 5000, just ballparking. Anyways, my point is,

00:58:33.820 when asked about this, an IRGC commander asked why he was shooting protesters in the head, 0.97

00:58:37.820 he responded, well, we're also shooting them in the legs. 0.97

00:58:40.060 Yeah. Hey, man, to be fair. 0.99

00:58:42.540 To be fair. To be fair to the IRGC, they don't just murder people, they also maim them. Okay? So,

00:58:48.460 there we go. But the reformists at this time, if you look back at the reformist tweets,

00:58:54.380 these people we've been bringing up, the Treda Parsis, nega morta civis. When their people of Iran 1.00

00:58:59.580 were being massacred by the regime, and not even violently protesting, basically,

00:59:03.420 peacefully, it wasn't like now where they're like, okay, we're fighting back.

00:59:05.900 They were still, the reformists were not, were tweeting pictures about, oh, look,

00:59:12.380 Iran looks so beautiful in the winter. And, you know, the CIA coup, and like, they didn't care

00:59:18.860 one bit. And they were just distracting. They didn't take the side of the protesters. They either,

00:59:23.340 you know, dismiss the protesters or deliberately obfuscated. Well, that's why this time we served

00:59:29.100 them a dish that they couldn't refuse with the women movement. Exactly. And they couldn't really 1.00

00:59:35.980 not talk about women. And then, like someone like Negar Murtazavi goes on BBC and denies the

00:59:44.700 number of people killed, says, oh, no, there's no, there's no actual number. What is their resource,

00:59:52.700 like, for saying $1,000? My handler hasn't given me any. It's like,

00:59:59.180 called me yet. They even, they even, um, accused me, by the way, of being an Israel agent, being like,

01:00:07.980 given direction by like Israel, Saudis and things like that. It's just amazing. In 2012, I was accused

01:00:18.540 of so many things that it just didn't make sense. I was accused of being an Israeli and the Saudi

01:00:25.100 Arabian agent, and American and Mujahideen. And it was like, no, this isn't work. Mujahideen is on the

01:00:34.780 terror list in US at the time. To clear, to clear things up, both Sana and Sia applied to Mossad.

01:00:41.100 They were denied. Yeah. So we sent them to the Saudis. No, I, I, I, I took back my application that

01:00:49.580 the hours are not good for me. Oh yeah. Yeah. We work them hard. The hours don't work. And you

01:00:54.460 have to do a horror. Yeah. To me, they said, come back when your PhD is done. Yeah. That's, that's the,

01:01:00.620 that, that was our thing to Sana. But you know, you know what is funny? Like, I was sitting on my bed,

01:01:07.660 like my pajamas and tweeting, and then Negar Murtaz Aviv would like say, oh, this is like,

01:01:13.820 Israel, Israel, like started the campaign of a smear and all like, really? Really? Well,

01:01:25.020 man, look at me. I'm a student. Like, how can I? Oh man. I was, yeah, I was, when I was a refugee,

01:01:32.620 they called, they, I talked to the guy about how bad my finances was. And the next week he said,

01:01:41.820 yeah, we're taking money from Israel. And I was like, me, where? Yeah, please. If there's money,

01:01:48.940 show me. And then it was like, Hey man, I found that's always the best thing to do is just give

01:01:53.740 into it. Like, I remember I stepped into the, um, India, Pakistan cashmere debate a couple of years ago.

01:02:00.540 And I had all these Pakistani trolls being like, how much does India pay you to do this? And I'd say,

01:02:04.460 actually 13% of India's GDP is directed towards my social media posts. If you want to get on it. Like,

01:02:11.820 cause they have no response. Like I find like people shilling for an evil regime don't understand

01:02:17.260 humor on. And it's very, it's very frightening, but there, a lot of them are on Twitter and openly

01:02:25.100 are shilling. And, uh, but, oh, one thing I wanted to mention, Hey, when I said like, uh, it's not that

01:02:32.060 like the regime didn't hurt anybody in like the specific group. No, there were groups that the

01:02:39.100 regime hit harder. Okay. Like again, women went through harder shit because imagine in the summer 1.00

01:02:46.540 in, I don't know, I was wearing all that stuff on. Yeah. He starts at a rate of degrees in 50 degrees. 0.99

01:02:57.020 The horror, the terror women don't have the right to divorce. They get the half the value in death of 1.00

01:03:04.540 men in inheritance of men, everything. So, yeah. And there are like Sunnis, 1.00

01:03:09.980 Sunni courts. Like when they were arresting us in university, they got the ones that had,

01:03:16.860 they had their names, uh, like us nine who they had our names. They got us on the van. And then

01:03:24.780 there was one guy left who wasn't one of us who was a nerd. And he was like 18, but he looked older

01:03:31.340 and the guy asked him, what's your name? And he said his name. And, uh, the guy was like,

01:03:37.580 are you a Kurt? And he was like, yeah. He said, are you Sunni? He was like, yeah. He said, get on.

01:03:43.740 Yeah. We, we were joking at the time. Well, I was joking at the time that he was our diversity arrest 1.00

01:03:50.060 because we were from the North, but yeah, they do get it harder. But the response is some people

01:03:59.020 come up with the, this made up stuff about all these nations that are being subjugated. And it's

01:04:06.140 like, no, there are no nations. There's one Iranian nation and there are ethnicities who all of them

01:04:11.340 have ruled this country at some point from Sistan Balochistan. We've had Safar Lays, the first guy 1.00

01:04:19.100 who rose up against the caliphate from North. We have ZREs. We have, uh, Ali Bouyeh and on to goes to 1.00

01:04:29.020 Nader Shah, who was a court and one of the greatest military strategic minds that we've ever had. And he

01:04:35.980 was Kurdish. So everybody has ruled this country. Most of all Turks, actually. There is no like, 0.98

01:04:44.460 oh, this guy has been subjugated by Iran. No, they all were part of it. They all ruled at some 0.99

01:04:51.100 point. It was like a, every once in a while, somebody else would rule. Sorry. I had to just

01:04:57.580 mention that. Yeah, no, I think that's a good point because another thing that we're seeing does

01:05:01.580 that if you get into these spaces and you're like, you know, just a random Canadian American,

01:05:06.380 whatever, and you're coming in, uh, the regime itself pays a lot of the major separatists, uh,

01:05:12.620 leaders to exist because they want to use the fear of ethnic separatism as a domestic boogeyman.

01:05:17.900 That's their number one thing. Yeah. Yeah. That's their number one thing is like,

01:05:21.980 you know, if you break it up, well, the entire country is going to fracture and do this. So you'll find,

01:05:27.180 you know, a lot of, you know, you know, I, I spoke to a Kurdish guy, you know, last week,

01:05:32.300 and I wrote an article on, on, you know, the, the war crimes that are being committed against them.

01:05:36.940 And, you know, the Kurdish region is getting it way harder than the rest. And number two would be

01:05:41.020 the Balochistan region. Balochistan, yeah. But he was so insistent that they're not separatists,

01:05:46.620 that they're fighting for all of Iran. Yeah. One, because that's, he sees himself as Iranian, but two,

01:05:52.700 the excuse that the regime is using when they raid house to house is they're looking for the separatist

01:05:57.500 leaders from Iraq, which don't exist. Um, and this is the excuse they use, um, domestically to,

01:06:04.780 you know, oppress these people. So it's, it's, it's something that needs to be worth mention to new

01:06:09.340 people here is yeah. A lot of people will come and skew this, what sounds like this sort of social

01:06:13.980 justice-y, um, uh, like ethnic discrimination. They don't understand Iran's socio-ethnic, basically.

01:06:24.380 I would say like Iran is the original multicultural country on earth in history. Because since 2500

01:06:34.860 years ago, it was the Pars tribe, then it was the Mott tribe, then it was the Pars tribe, then it was the

01:06:39.900 Parthian tribe. All over Iran, different tribes considered themselves Iranians and ruled over this

01:06:49.820 country one time or another. And any group that they took over, like Arabs moved to Iran 2000 years ago 0.64

01:06:56.380 before Islam. Iranian Arabs in the south 2000 years ago moved to Iran. Jews, I don't know, you know better. 1.00

01:07:04.860 It would have been after the destruction of the first temple. Huh? It was after the destruction of

01:07:10.060 the first temple, around the time of the... 2500? Sorry? 2500 years, something? 2500 years,

01:07:17.500 at the time of Cyrus the Great. So it's, it's actually... Yeah, yeah, 2400 I think. Yeah.

01:07:21.740 So like these, like Iran until the revolution, we had a hundred thousand Jews in Iran,

01:07:28.860 in a Muslim country, the largest population in any other country around. But

01:07:35.020 all these different groups are now being talked to as if they're not Iranian. They've been taken over

01:07:42.060 by Iran. And it's like, no, they're all Iranian. Iran has an identity. It has had... Arabs destroyed this 0.98

01:07:48.860 country. Mongolians literally flattened it. And they couldn't destroy this identity. There was something 0.76

01:07:56.220 there. Mongolians couldn't destroy it. And see, like, the ethnic killing, sorry. Like, Baluch people 1.00

01:08:06.380 in the south, a lot of them don't have ID, government ID issues. So it's so easy to kill them without having 0.99

01:08:14.380 any record of like, how many people have been killed here? Don't know. Because there's no... God knows. 0.97

01:08:20.380 God knows. God knows. Courts, the Kulbars. Court Kulbars. Basically a job. It's a job in courts, you know, 1.00

01:08:28.220 that basically they take stuff, smuggling stuff in, because they have nothing. And they just shoot them.

01:08:37.020 They use them as target practice. In, I don't know, Baha'is. It's another group. Whenever they desire, 1.00

01:08:45.260 it's like, somebody kills that other guy. And it's like, yeah, he was saying some nasty, 0.89

01:08:51.420 like, infidel, heretic shit. Or Baha'is is very scary. Like, they don't, they have no right to like... 1.00

01:08:59.180 They're basically Jews in Germany before the war. 1934, right? Yeah. Jews during, like, 0.98

01:09:09.660 it's like that. They, like, they, they arrest their, like, teachers who are having this, like,

01:09:16.140 um, schools, like, underground. Yeah, because they're not allowed higher education. So they have to

01:09:21.500 basically hire their own teachers to teach their children and they arrest them. They attack those

01:09:28.220 schools and attack and arrest them. And it's like, so how, what, what do you want this guy to do?

01:09:36.060 I know, like, someone during, um, like, when I was in college, um, like, someone that I knew,

01:09:42.300 and, like, we're friends, um, got, like, expelled, expelled from school only because of her religion.

01:09:51.420 Yeah. Yeah, I was literally told by the head of security that, uh, yeah, don't, don't, don't,

01:09:59.340 waste your time applying for higher education. Yeah, you're not. You're, you're a high. No,

01:10:05.500 but we were arrested and prisoned at the time. So he was like, yeah, don't waste your time. And the

01:10:10.540 friend of ours who did waste his time and studied and all that, he didn't get any response. He was like,

01:10:16.300 yeah, piss off. How many lives they have destroyed? Like, my father, um, he was one of the, the first 0.97

01:10:29.900 group of students who got into college after the three years of, um, cultural revolution. And, um,

01:10:37.260 there was like a, uh, written, like it was a written test. And then it was like those, uh, multi choice

01:10:44.700 tests, like two, um, different exams that you have to go through both. And then you had to go through

01:10:52.540 an interview. And then after the interview, they would like do research about you and you're with

01:10:59.580 you. Yeah. Yeah. Like, um, to see if you have like nothing with like families or something,

01:11:07.260 that has done something. Yeah. And, uh, if you look at the Shah's time, this evil monster, 0.99

01:11:15.660 Iran has for 14 years, Iran has a, uh, economic growth of over 15.

01:11:26.860 Do you understand what that even means?

01:11:29.020 4 is great. 4% is great. 15, dude. The year, some years 20.

01:11:41.340 That's what this guy was doing. He was doing it a little fast. People were not ready for it. And, uh,

01:11:47.500 this is, uh, this is the, yeah. Like when you, when, then you read your history, it just pieces me off.

01:11:57.020 I don't even want to read those things. Oh, and, uh, Iranians are now literally chanting, 1.00

01:12:01.980 Hey, we made a mistake, but one interesting thing, I don't know if we want to go or what,

01:12:06.300 but there's one interesting thing I want to talk about that, uh, you know, the mythology of every

01:12:14.700 country, every group has a root in what their story has been over and over and over again in history.

01:12:21.580 Yeah. Iranian mythology, one of basically the, after the great king, Jamshid, who does great things,

01:12:31.740 becomes a full of himself and loses God's divine, uh, support. He is basically, the country is

01:12:39.500 attacked by a foreigner as a hawk. And, uh, he, who has two snakes growing over his shoulders. 0.99

01:12:45.980 As we know. And those snakes eat the brains of young men every night, one young man every night.

01:12:52.300 Oh, let go of the, there's enough. Yeah. Jordan Peterson, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah. But,

01:12:58.060 but what happens is this foreign guy comes takes over and then a blacksmith

01:13:06.300 rises named Kaveh rises and, uh, starts a revolt and goes and finds the true king

01:13:14.700 and they come back and defeat this, uh, usurper. In our mythology,

01:13:20.140 we have a popular revolution by a commoner. Okay. This is just our thing. We apparently do it a lot.

01:13:34.300 Imagine in 120 years, we've had three revolutions, constitutional revolution,

01:13:41.820 Islamic revolution, and now this one. And they pretty much had the same pattern. 0.93

01:13:46.140 Yeah. And you don't have that in anywhere else. Three revolutions in 120 years.

01:13:54.620 Yeah. It's just our thing, man. We just get excited. We make a mistake and then we're like,

01:14:00.140 okay, let's, let's fix that. Let's fix that. Do you think there's a good chance of the re-institution

01:14:07.180 of the Pallavi dynasty? Or do you think, uh, it will go towards- There's a lot of stuff. Yeah. Like,

01:14:13.420 Pallavi is the name, the only name that is being chanted in the streets, not by everybody,

01:14:19.660 but the only actual name that people chant in the streets is Pallavi. Nobody's chanting for

01:14:25.820 Maryam Rajavi and MEK. Nobody's chanting for, I don't know, Masih Alinejad. I respect them, but

01:14:31.980 they don't chant their names. They don't chant as miners. But there is one person that they chant,

01:14:37.740 not everybody again, but the only one that has been chanted. And that's Pallavi.

01:14:42.380 Oh, Ford, man.

01:14:43.180 He has, he has done no mistakes politically. He speaks three, four languages. And he's hung out

01:14:52.540 when he was like a teenager. He's hung out with, I don't know, Nixon and sat down, basically hung out

01:14:59.660 with heads of states. This guy has been breathing politics and international politics and everything,

01:15:06.380 his whole life. So he is very qualified and people still love the time of Pallavi. There's a saying

01:15:13.020 in Iran that Iran has four times, present, past, future, and Pallavi's time. Everybody always says,

01:15:20.300 like, ah, Pallavi's time, it was like this, Pallavi's time. It was like that. Yeah, I think Pallavi's

01:15:27.100 the most like, say, the favorite, like one of the most favorite out of all the governments that we've

01:15:37.420 had in like 200 years. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. And the only problem is a lot of the

01:15:44.780 older generation and lefties and stuff. They're still fighting the 1979 revolution. They still

01:15:52.860 believe, like MEK, like they still believe that the revolution was good. It was just misdirected and

01:16:00.220 taken over, usurped by bad guys, as if like they were the good guys. Yeah. So that's the problem.

01:16:08.540 Yeah. And Pallavi has openly said, hey, I, I'm not gonna have any expectation. I'll just be the voice

01:16:19.420 until a government establishes and we do elections. Then if people vote that they want constitutional

01:16:25.900 monarchy, okay. If they don't, okay, goodbye. I might run for president. I just want to help.

01:16:33.900 I just want to serve this country. It's like, but your daddy, like, and it's like, yeah,

01:16:41.260 he's dead through basically Islamists, fathers of ISIS and communists who were supporting Stalin 0.92

01:16:48.700 in prison. What a bad guy. Yeah, that's the thing. See, like Pallavi has the biggest support from the 0.92

01:16:57.420 people. And, um, it's the most legit opposition. Like they, they, they are known. They've been in

01:17:07.420 power. They have a resume. No one is like Pallavi. Oh, no, no, no. The dude literally every time he

01:17:14.220 goes on another foreign TV and speaks another language and I'm like, oh, okay. I didn't know.

01:17:20.540 Yeah. I mean, I, I've been, I, I'm with you. I've been quite impressed with he's, he's inside

01:17:27.340 a pretty tight box and he's been able to maneuver quite well. And I have been critical of him because

01:17:32.940 in my mind, I was like, he's not taking charge and blah, blah, blah. But then when I got more into it,

01:17:40.780 I was like, oh, he's being, he's being a king, a constitutional king doesn't jump in political

01:17:47.980 fights and this group and that group and stuff. They just, if they agree on him, he will basically

01:17:54.220 do something, but he's not gonna jump in and be like, yeah, let me rule you. And like, of course,

01:18:00.860 he's being very actually regal. Yeah. Yeah. That's, um, so, and I wasn't a fan and originally I wasn't a

01:18:10.220 monarchist. I became one. Yeah. So, uh, yeah, I mean, so this is a question I'll bring up from

01:18:18.460 the chat. I'll bring up all legitimate questions. Someone's asking about the history of the mullahs,

01:18:21.820 but I think that's less interesting. Mullahs have a very long history in Iran.

01:18:27.660 Yeah. And that's a hard one. That one's just a lot harder to go over. Um, yeah. So if the Islamic 1.00

01:18:32.380 Republic, if the Islamic Republic regime does not cooperate with the mechanism defined by the

01:18:36.380 UN rights, UN human rights code, except to condemn this kind of what else, like what it's going to

01:18:40.300 do. So it's like, I think this person is asking like, what I think your intention is like, what

01:18:43.900 can the United nations do? Yeah. And the answer is nothing. Um, if you're talking about boots on the

01:18:49.500 ground, they've never done it before. And that requires, if it does happen, the consent of Russia

01:18:54.620 and China, uh, two of the regime's allies. So get that out of your mind. Um, the United nations

01:19:00.860 can send a semi-automatic, highly, um, strong worded letter. Um, but other than an assault,

01:19:09.580 really just the letter, I mean, they can, I mean, it's strong words. Okay. Now, one thing that I

01:19:14.940 have a problem with is Israel. Okay. Israel used to blow up a lot of for the regime

01:19:22.060 right before this revolution happened. And everybody, literally everybody was like, awesome.

01:19:26.700 Whenever we had heard like, Oh, this missile factory blew up. Awesome. Suddenly they all stopped.

01:19:33.900 Yeah. So there's, there's people are now

01:19:38.700 basically conspiracy theories are coming that Israel needs a crazy regime like Iran. The hardliner is

01:19:48.300 basically the far right in Israel needs a crazy regime to basically push its agenda.

01:19:57.900 I don't know. I'm hoping Netanyahu proves us wrong. I I've been a fan of the guy, so we'll see.

01:20:03.500 From yeah. From my contacts is the Israelis don't want to keep these. They see the, the, they see the, 0.55

01:20:10.780 the destruction of the Islamic Republic as a security need. And they understand that they can't play hot 0.77

01:20:15.420 potato forever because eventually the regime gets a nuke and then all the, the, the, the answer this

01:20:24.700 from what I know of the Israelis is one, they were, they don't want to be accused of trying to control

01:20:32.860 the revolution that this is an Israeli revolution and they don't want to be caught with any clandestine

01:20:37.660 operations inside of Iran right now. Cause then they would see that as potentially undermining the

01:20:42.860 movement. However, they have stepped up, uh, attacks on the IRD. And it was quite shocking

01:20:51.020 because a couple of months ago, they actually in the middle of the revolution admitted to striking

01:20:56.060 Syria. Like one of the games they play in Syria is the reason they could strike them in Syria is 1.00

01:21:00.300 because the Islamic Republic pretends that they're nowhere else in the world. Yeah. For some reason, 1.00

01:21:04.780 like Israel attacks those troops and then they're like, what troops were attacked? Exactly. I don't

01:21:12.220 know. I saw that. What is that? Is that a plane? Yeah. That's Superman. Soleimani took a vacation to

01:21:18.940 Syria and suddenly got bombed and died. So they played this little game where like Israel bombed Syria. How

01:21:27.340 many Syrian soldiers died? Zero. Um, who died? Um, some Iranian contractors and Israel says,

01:21:36.460 wasn't us. Right. But they actually admitted that, you know, yeah, we're striking Syria now to hit IRGC

01:21:42.140 points and like kind of said it out loud, which is sort of a taunt to the regime. Like, yeah,

01:21:47.580 we're in Syria. You're going to fight us here. Like, because they want them to sort of ramp up their 1.00

01:21:51.340 efforts in Syria to drain their resources. They could fight them there. Uh, also I don't want, 0.85

01:21:56.940 no, I honestly don't want any military operations like actions. I do like it. If Israel, for example, 0.97

01:22:05.020 hit a, I don't know, IRGC base. Yeah. Okay. In Iran. I would love that, but not any like real big

01:22:12.940 operations and no big operations from Western countries. Western countries just fuck everything 0.99

01:22:19.100 up, man. So the final part of this on the Israeli thing is you have to remember Israel just went 1.00

01:22:23.820 through its whole seventh election in the last 13 days. Um, I know it's right, but this

01:22:30.620 in order for the way Israel elections work, for those who understand it, it's a coalition system.

01:22:34.780 So the winning party gets the most seats. They have the right. The president determines like

01:22:39.660 the prime minister, but the president looks and says, okay, in this case, Netanyahu's Likud,

01:22:43.820 you have the right to try and form government. So over the next month or so, Netanyahu goes to all the

01:22:49.580 different parties with seats and then negotiate what the, what the government is going to look

01:22:53.420 like. So the, it doesn't make sense. The Israelis would start clandestine inside Iran operations

01:22:59.740 without knowing, okay, who's the foreign secretary going to be like all these high ranking. Yeah.

01:23:04.380 Everything's up in the air right now. Yeah. They're not going to do anything other than just

01:23:08.540 do the easy thing of striking them in Syria until the government coalesces. Uh, but I do, 0.54

01:23:13.260 I'm with you. I do think Netanyahu is the best guy for the Iranians right now. 0.89

01:23:16.780 Iranian people. I mean, yeah, because he was the first guy who got it that, oh, 0.86

01:23:23.100 Iranians directly. Yeah. He started to write messages in Persian. He started to directly talk

01:23:29.660 to Iranians and write subtitles and Iranians on Twitter actually responded very positively.

01:23:37.900 Yeah. And that's because they realized, oh, we were being, somebody got it. Somebody got it.

01:23:42.700 Somebody's seeing us actually. Yeah. He's getting it that no, no, no. We're different.

01:23:47.980 And the Israelis are highly pragmatic and they spend a lot of like, they don't,

01:23:50.860 the Israelis don't care about the American or Canadian discourse and like Democrat, Republican, 0.98

01:23:56.060 liberal, conservative, like they really don't care about us. Like they really, really don't care.

01:24:00.140 Like we're so like, they think, especially the Jewish community, they think we're just all a bunch of 1.00

01:24:05.180 cowards. And like, they're like, we can't like, you're a headache, real problems. But they're like, 0.99

01:24:11.420 our real problems is the Islamic Republic and these lunatics. So they actually do know. And you saw 1.00

01:24:16.060 this with Bibi. He like took the time to learn like how to do propaganda, how to troll the regime, 0.59

01:24:21.260 how to undermine them. I like where, what hurts them and what helps them. So I'm optimistic that when

01:24:28.620 the government settles, there'll be a coordinated plan. Hey man, when I heard it, I was like, Hey man,

01:24:34.380 good. Thank God. We'll see. Can I say something? I, I strongly think I have no evidence or nothing.

01:24:41.500 This is just like my intention. You're just talking. Yeah. I feel like this hacking things that are like

01:24:50.380 the national TV get hacked. Like these big ones. Um, I feel like that's Israel because like they've 1.00

01:25:01.980 had the history of like doing groups that there was a group that lost him. Yeah. That was, that was the

01:25:14.780 Iranian, that was the IRGC cyber army. Oh no, they took him down. They took him down.

01:25:21.260 That's what it was. I know what you mean. Like, Oh, am I still here? Yes. Yes. Yes. You're here.

01:25:27.900 We lost the entire response. What happened? Yeah. We were talking about the cyber hacking and then

01:25:33.420 boom, you went away. Was it me? Yeah. Oh,

01:25:36.780 Oh, so no, no, no. There was a cyber group in Iran that, uh, said, yeah, we did it. But that group is

01:25:46.940 kind of shady. Nobody really knows. They have been also like, they hacked result. It actually could be

01:25:58.220 Israelis. They hacked result of his phone and like exposed him, all his photos, personal, all the

01:26:08.220 photos of. Oh no. See, he's gotten too close to the truth. Yes. Yes. And these are like exciting ones,

01:26:20.060 but at least it paused on a good frame for him.

01:26:22.380 Yeah. Yeah. Did I get frozen again? You're back. You're frozen again. After you're telling us. I'm

01:26:28.140 really sorry. I'll say this quickly. They published his photos online and it was all him and his wife

01:26:33.900 in very wholesome, nice. He obviously a man loves his wife by the beach, but still like, oh, wow. You

01:26:41.980 exposed them. And then I was like, maybe this was on purpose to show like, oh, he's a nice dude. I don't

01:26:48.140 know. So like hacking national TV, because that is not connected to like, they say somebody should

01:26:55.420 have been inside. Yes. Someone should have been physically inside there. And Israel have done that 1.00

01:27:01.580 with like nuclear documentation and things like that. And some, yes, some scientist guy. Yeah. So

01:27:11.900 I feel like that could be Israel. Yeah, it could be. It could. I mean, they did do the stocks net thing.

01:27:18.780 Yeah. I mean, I, for what I like the, the Mossad wouldn't be opposed to hacking Iran's national 1.00

01:27:25.820 broadcast. He brought to put out anti-regime messaging. Hey man, Mossad actually took half a ton

01:27:32.940 of paper, classified paper from Iran on a truck loaded it up on a truck and left. It's unbelievable.

01:27:45.260 I mean, if it shows how deep the corruption is, it's more like a comment on the, the structure of

01:27:51.180 the Islamic Republic. And like, yeah, I mean, I always say, really? Like, is that like the most secure

01:27:59.660 system and organization that you have and they can like easily steal your documentations? Really?

01:28:07.820 Like it's like the regime runs as a kleptocracy. It's people just stealing the wealth of the country.

01:28:12.620 Oh yeah. It's just a fight over the oil faucet. That's it.

01:28:16.940 Yeah. Those people fighting over money aren't that hard to bribe.

01:28:21.340 Absolutely. Absolutely. And the new generation of the regime's operatives,

01:28:25.980 the executives and whatever, they're not at all in any way, like committed to Islam and whatever.

01:28:33.500 They just realized that, okay, this system needs this and I can provide this.

01:28:38.620 Yeah. And I don't have a conscience.

01:28:40.140 So there are some crazy Islamists who are like, no, no, absolutely. But most of them are not. 0.97

01:28:45.980 Most of them, their life is on it because all their money, livelihood, everything is on it with the regime.

01:28:51.980 And those people can be bought. Hopefully.

01:28:56.540 So I think this was pretty great. Thank you, both of you, for coming. We did an hour and a half here

01:29:01.740 and happy to do it again. Oh, wow.
