Labour have "appropriated" @greenparty.org.uk's message. Doesn't wash, they've the Tony Blair institute organising at their conference. Labour brought #Palantir into our MoD & #NHS, didn't have the backbone to call out a genocide 'til convenient & didn't reverse any harmful things Cons brought in.

Commemorating the life of #JinaAmini. Iranian culture has more than 3 millennia of tradition commemorating lost ones. So we mark 4 years since the state killing of #MahsaAmini ignited one of the most significant of a long series of uprisings for equality, freedom & human dignity in #Iran. #London

Perhaps the hardest one to define as anticolonial is the Iranian resistance against the state. - ideological expansion - proxy armies - informal terror networks, eg via Telegram - religion as a shield/ recruiting drive - state ministers enjoy untold freedom/ wealth - the oppression of unions & poor

These days its has so many guises as well. AfD are easy to recognise and still they got in. Even factions of the far left embrace authoritarianism and execution in the name of their project, keep calling it out!

Yes AIPAC are corrupt but be not blind to the IRI, Trump was motivated by the China iran Oil freight railway too, the IRI built a nuclear facility inside a mountain. The regime have egged on war with USA since day 1 they make kids chant about it each day before school, it's whitewashed their crimes.

The killing of resistance by the state is well documented since 1979 the use of lethal force, the burning of student dormitories in 1999 for protest, the extra judicial killing, systematic torture in Iran's 272 known jails this all prexiested JPCOA, IRI built a nuclear facility inside a mountain!

This is of note because it is the same camp, those who call to normalise relations with the regime in #Iran, that also talk over Ukranians to push for "peace efforts" with #Russia instead of support for #Ukraine. (artwork by Iranian artist & activist) #RoshiRouzbehani

Thank you, @greenparty.org.uk also has Ukranians in there, talking sense I just wanted to hear for outside that they are on the right track. There is a pro-Russian faction in there (!) who also tend to be pro-Iran regime and China as well.

#Israel and #Lebanon signed a US-backed agreement on 26 June to disarm #Hezbollah, which Iran has condemned as a violation of the #MoU. At the same time, a process led by #Baghdad, backed by the #USA, to disarm #Iran-linked militias in #Iraq is underway. @thenewarab.bsky.social #iranwar #Irannews

Why the talk about poisoning #LyndseyGraham? Nanowarfare has been around for a while. When JDVance left the Pope's quarters, he dies the next day. During the visit Trump met president Meloni elsewhere so top security was otherwise engaged. Johnson has said they found a bug after a Netanyahu visit.

The regime in #Iran holds #elections regularly, but they fall short of #democratic standards due partly a hard-line Guardian Council, an unelected body disqualifying all candidates it deems insufficiently loyal to the clerical establishment. Ultimate power is the supreme leader's Ayatollah #Khamenei

You know the regime makes kids, each day before school line up & chant "Death to America! Death to Israel!" & walk over the flags in disrespect. It's so traumatising a brainwashing drive, position of perpetual antipathy, that some exiles embrace the flags as signs of not endorsement but resistance.

With you all the way but genuine question - Where will they go? I mean the ones who are not in this for personal gain, and have been swept up by it, aren't they your neighbours? The only way to be rid of an enemy is to make them your friend. Otherwise we only entrench their views, surely.

Are they all made in Naples? Naples my once beloved. I need to apply all these points about these "ideological operations" that "speak of themselves in a universal language but only refer to a number of things that a very limited. " The campist left is whitewashing the regime atm, as "resistance" 🤒

This is also a perfect feminist argument which I'd ordinarily back. But in this context they are the outwards expressions of mind control, one that has been documented and is incredibly sad to read. If people don't stay freely, it's not a movement but something else. The regime's methods must go.
