U.S. launches campaign to erode support for Iran's leaders

Americans wetting themselves about Russian meddling should understand why most of the world could care less.

Reuters can always be relied on to selectively parse history, as if pre-1979 Iran never existed. As if the US didn't orchestrate a coup against a democratically elected leader in 1953, installing the Shah as a puppet to better facilitate oil profits being funneled to Anglo-American companies. IOW, the revolution happened for a reason, the Shah's brutal reign principal among them.

Another chapter straight out of the CIA manual, plus pressure from the real America, Israel.

U.S. launches campaign to erode support for Iran's leaders

Shouldn't that read

"U.S. re-launches for the 55th time campaign to erode support for Iran's leaders"?

Evil is on the march, everywhere you look:

Bizarrely, none of it seems to involve Russians.

A different form of war, in a sense, but propaganda warfare has been around for centuries. It's just easier now, but a lot more fraught with retaliation.

Pot-kettle-black....bitch and moan about Russia meddling in US politics but then jumping in against Iran.

I look forward to coverage of American collusion hearings from Teheran. Uncle Sam is the Great Satan making him more evil than Putin.

So...meddling in america, BAD, meddling in other countries, good?

Should any American citizen come out in support of Iran? Nope. But they will, as part of partisan politics and to protect what Obama did.

A partisan has the inability to see the motivations of others as anything other than partisanship.

Right. That’s why Obama’s deferrent actions towards an actual enemy of the USA isn’t “treason” but press conference comments by Trump supposedly is. Liberal partisanship.

Thank you for proving my point by showing you can’t even conceive that there may be other reasons than partisanship.

U.S. officials familiar with the matter said

Frankly, I don't have a whole lot of belief in articles such as this that are based on anonymous sources.

Why try to reinvent the wheel? The world community already had a denuclearization deal in place with Iran, and Trump unilaterally scuttled it.

Washington has long called Iran the world's leading "state sponsor of terrorism"

Whilst ignoring Iran's nemesis, Saudi Arabia, who were behind 9/11. Well, not quite ignoring. Doing billion dollar deals with and arming them.

Yep.
