Iran, Israel and Propaganda 2.0

Iran is often criticized for it's aggressive behaviour in the region, for example when the Iranian Navy carried out a naval operation in the Mediterranean Israeli and an American politicians rallied to the mainstream media to share news of this "grave threat" and use this as reasoning for more sanctions or even military action against the Iranian regime despite the reality that the Iranian Navy only sent a singular destroyer and a replenishment ship, more of a signal of support towards the current Syrian regime and propaganda then a direct threat to the Israeli regime.

The Islamic Republic also inflicted another embarrassing defeat on the American-Air-Force when it reported that it had successfully captured an American intelligence gathering drone caught loitering near Iranian military facilities close to the Afghan boarder, the capture of the drone opened the possibility that the Iranian Military could of managed to capture the drone by simply hacking into the control interface and forcing it to land safely into the desert for safe capture, the embarrassment continued for the American Government when they asked to return the drone, an Iranian company instead offered to send several scale models of the drone directly to the American President as a "gift" instead of the drone.

Of course the Islamic Republic of Iran is no stranger to being attacked by foreign power. Iranian infrastructure and science has been under siege by a mixture of cyber-attacks and assassinations carried out by both the Israeli and American Intelligence Services but these attacks are not placed in their proper context, surely these attacks actually give a basis of support for allowing the Iranian regime to have nuclear weapons as they are already routinely attacked despite the fact that the Iranian leadership has constantly and consistently declared nuclear weapons to be prohibited and even said it was everyones duty to "protect against this disaster".

I've been repeating this line repeatedly but it bears repeating. The Military-Industrial Complex and the Politicians they support are continuing to push for military action against the Islamic Republic of Iran and it will be done under the false pretence of dismantling the Iranian nuclear weapons program and I am not in favour in creating an even costlier Iraqi style conflict.
