The heroism of the Iranian people shrugged off by degenerate Europe

Maybe these protests will eventually subside and the people will once again be beaten down. But anyone with any sense of decency or concern to protect and defend the security of the west, should surely be holding their breath at what is clearly now happening: the possibly terminal weakening of the most lethal terrorist regime in the world which has been behind countless attacks on the west against which it declared when it took power forty years ago, which is hell-bent on developing nuclear weapons and which threatens genocide against the Jews of Israel.

So why aren’t the western media treating this as the enormous story it is? Two reasons. First, the actual threat posed by Iran has been consistently downplayed. For the west, Iran was too powerful and rich; too many people in the west were involved in making money from it, and the challenges involved in taking it on militarily were considered too extreme.

As Khairallah Khairallah writes in the Arab Weekly, from Jimmy Carter to Barack Obama successive US presidents therefore closed their eyes to Iran’s aggression and murderous attacks on western interests – and on the Jewish people.

The second reason for western indifference is the refusal to accept that US President Donald Trump can ever do a single thing that is good. And the credit for what is now happening in Iran must go the Trump administration, which tore up the 2015 nuclear deal signed under the Obama administration and reimposed sanctions which are bringing the country to its knees and helping provoke this uprising. People have been shouting that they want an end to Iranian involvement in foreign disputes and to have food on their tables instead.
