In fact, the Iranian opposition accused her of being too favorable to Iran.
The author is extremely is extremely well-connected in Iran.
Her previous stories have been proven true again and again.

He said “America deserved 9/11" and Crimea is Russian.

Did you really expect him to look like a Swedish feminist lawyer ?
Yeah. I happen to know that.
Gaza went through several devastating wars.
The war didn’t start when Hamas attacked.
Actually, it did. A conflict and a war are not the same thing.
Hezbollah has a right to assist
Well, the Lebanese Government disagrees.
Did you not even read what you posted?
In October 2023, Hezbollah launched a rocket campaign on Israel in support of Gaza, which was being bombarded by Israel following a Hamas-led surprise attack on Israel that saw 1,139 people killed and some 250 taken captive. Israel returned fire.
The government of Lebanon told Hezbollah to avoid any war.
On october 8th, Hezbollah congratulated Hamas and they started firing rockets on northern Israel. They publically bragged about it. They told the Lebanese government "Go fuck yourselves"
This triggered an absolutely devastating war
And you are blaming the President of Lebanon now?!!! Your hypocrisy is staggering
Oh, everything is clear now
A journalist from Al Akhbar
Journalism and Al Akhbar are two words that don’t go well together.
Doesn’t justify her death. They murdered a civilian.
But let’s not turn Al Akhbar into what it’s not. I would put it in the same category as Fox News.

In the hours before Israeli forces bombed Evin prison in Iran’s capital on June 23, posts appeared on social media in Persian, foreshadowing the attack and urging Iranians to come free the prisoners.
Moments after the bombs struck, a video appeared on X and Telegram, purporting to show a blast at an entrance to the prison, which is notorious for holding political prisoners. One post on X included a hashtag, in Persian: “#freeevin.”
The attack on the prison was real, but the posts and video were not what they seemed. They were part of an Israeli ruse, according to researchers who tracked the effort.
“It’s certainly a new era of influence warfare,” said James J.F. Forest, a professor of security studies at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, who has written extensively on the subject. “There’s never really been a previous corollary in history where you had the ability to go to scale with this kind of propaganda.”
Darren L. Linvill, a co-director of Clemson University’s Media Forensics Hub, said the video purporting to show a blast at Evin prison appeared almost immediately on accounts on X and Telegram and then spread on a coordinated network of inauthentic accounts that pushed anti-Iranian content, reaching millions of people. He called it a striking example of “the coordination between kinetic and psychological warfare.”

There will never be “consensus” on safe streets, because one side believes nobody should get killed by cars and the other side believes its totally fine if people get killed by cars
For fuck sake. The Boston election is over. You won. It’s time to be agressive now.
