NOT good journalism when the initial claim doesnt pass the sniff test. OSINTdefender has been posting about wartime reports for a long time and should know this didnt pass for common sense. Propagating obvious misinformation just fuels the chaos and increases distrust among western populations thus aiding the enemy.

THE IRANIAN SCHOOL BOMBING IS THE MODERN DAY CINEMA REX

In 1978, Khomeini’s Radical Islamist followers barricaded 470 people inside Cinema Rex movie theater, soaked the building with airplane fuel, and set it on fire.

Everyone inside burned alive.

The Islamists then launched a successful disinformation campaign blaming SAVAK - the Shah’s secret police - for the blaze.

The lie spread.

Public outrage exploded.

And the tragedy became one of the turning points that helped ignite the Islamic Revolution in Iran.

Last week, the Islamic Regime bombed a girls’ elementary school. Whether it was deliberate or due to a misfired rocket is still unclear.

But what is clear is the playbook.

Manufacture a Tragedy.
Blame the Enemy.
Exploit the Outrage.

Just like in 1978.

The same tactics that helped the Regime seize power, are now being used to stay in power.

And Western liberals who have no idea how evil the Islamic Regime truly is are falling for it.

We had a good thing, Britain.

A really good thing.

You taught us this game. Mahan studied you. We just wrote bigger checks.

The deal was simple. We spend the trillions. Fight the hard wars. We even let you sit out Vietnam. And you? You hold the chokepoints you already own. You run Lloyd’s. Ships in the narrows, insurance on the hulls.

That’s all you had to do and we would back your interests with the strongest military and financial markets in the world.

That was the deal.

Now look at you.

You gave up Aden. Fine. You kept Diego Garcia so we could reach it with bombers. Now you’re giving that away too. To a Chinese client state.

You built Israel to guard Suez. Now your Foreign Secretary threatens to arrest their PM.

You built a base nearby to back it up. Iran hit your base in Cyprus. You didn’t have one warship in the Mediterranean. Spain got there first. Spain.

You gave up Hong Kong but backed Taiwan. Now you’re letting China build the largest embassy in Europe on top of London’s fiber-optic cables. We gave you Five Eyes. You gave Beijing a SIGINT platform in the heart of the City.

Gibraltar. Three hundred years. Actual sieges. Now the Spanish run your border checks.

You lost South Africa but kept the Falklands so we can overfly the Magellan Strait. Argentina could probably take that with rowboats today.

Your king kept ownership of the Canadian, Australian and New Zealand navies to fill the gaps. Those navies are now a laughing stock.

Your warships and bombers patrolled the GIUK gap. Now you don’t have enough but you also don’t want us buying Greenland. Fine. You do it. With what?

We gave London the @IMOHQ to regulate shipping, you backed the EU agenda to carbon tax every ship to build woke UN slush fund.

Iran closed Hormuz. In the ‘80s, 540 ships got hit. Lloyd’s never blinked. Because your navy was there. Now Lloyd’s cancels. Because it isn’t.

You scrapped your only amphibious ships. Sold them. To Brazil. You have more admirals than warships.

You built two light carriers but they keep springing leaks and you don’t have enough escort ships to support them.

The English Channel. Stopped Napoleon. Stopped Hitler. Now you can’t stop rubber dinghies.

You had one job.

Have the warships, diplomatic backbone and insurance to support shipping through the straits.

That’s it. That’s all we asked.

And you blew it. Chokepoint by chokepoint. Called it progress.

Now hundreds of ships are stuck in the Persian Gulf and the world is blaming us.

But that’s ok. All those solar panels you bought from China will keep you warm in that dreary weather I guess.

Shouldn`t we be "eliminating" the Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.

Tired of seeing his smirky face and he is a radical leader.

JUST IN: President Trump just had a phone call with UK PM KEIR STARMER after Trump publicly embarrassed him for being weak on Iran

Starmer is JUST NOW offering aircraft carriers to the Iran conflict

"The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That’s OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don’t need them any longer — But we will remember. We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won!" — Trump yesterday

FOX: "We were told that the 2 talked about military cooperation and the Mideast conflict."

The Chinese intelligence vessel Liaowang-1 is currently operating near Oman's coast.

Analysts indicate it could supply Iran with real-time monitoring of US and Israeli naval and air activities, potentially reducing the element of surprise for future operations.

The Liaowang-1, a Dongdiao-class ship, features radar domes capable of electromagnetic and satellite tracking.

We could float alongside and jam a lot of their monitoring capability.

Would be a good time to acquire an Iranian mine and discretely move it in front of Chynese ship and then blame Iran for using mines when it blows up

I dont know them. I dont know the answer to these questions.

How many tweets have they sent?

How many of those tweets had corrections 17 minutes later?

How many never corrected an improper position?

If good journalism is perfection? You got them! Congrats on defining good journalism. Now please call out and defame everyone else who also falls short

I would sink that Chinese Intel ship so fricking fast. If they are supplying Iran with information that could kill soldiers then that's an act of war as they are directly involving themselves. I'd let ol xi know not to frick around cuz he could get it too.

IDF:

In the heart of Tehran: IDF eliminates the appointed chief of the Iranian regime’s Supreme Leader’s military bureau

Yesterday, guided by intelligence from Aman, the Israeli Air Force carried out a precise strike in Tehran, killing Abu al-Qassem Baba’iyan, head of the Supreme Leader’s military bureau and chief of staff of the regime’s emergency command, Khatam al-Anbiya.

Baba’iyan was responsible for coordinating between regime bodies to advance operations against Israel and oversee the regime’s emergency mechanisms.

He had just been appointed as the head of the Supreme Leader’s military bureau for the new, yet-to-be-selected leader, following the elimination of Mohammad Shirazi, the former bureau chief, in the opening strike of Operation “Roaring Lion.”

Baba’iyan was also appointed chief of the emergency command after his predecessor, Ali Shadmani, was killed during Operation “With the Lion.” In his role, Baba’iyan was closely connected to the top military and political leadership during Operation “Roaring Lion.”

His elimination follows the IDF’s targeting of senior leaders of the Iranian terror regime at the start of “Roaring Lion” and significantly damages Iran’s military command and operational capabilities.

Is there some way for us to knock that Radical Islamic Regime satellite out of the sky?


Im absolutely certain we can, but would we want to reveal such capabilities to everyone for such a small gain?

Nobody is saying good journalism is perfection. People are noting that targeting a desalinization plant is so fricking stupid that it should cause the journalist to pause and verify with quite a few sources. Someone who has experience covering war should have red flagged that immediately. Targeting civilian infrastructure is so antithetical to our mission there is no way that gets approved and anyone with two brain cells should know that.

Or we could simply tell them to get the hell out while they still have that ship.
