Last week, enormous crowds turned out again the capital Tehran, for a mass funeral of some 100 police and security officers killed in attacks by foreign-backed insurgents. Western media and politicians paint a totally opposite picture, portraying a regime in crisis, wantonly killing its own people to crush a mass uprising seeking its overthrow. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump is escalating his threats of renewed US military attacks on Iran, raising the risk of another US-Israeli-instigated regional war. And while Western governments pretend to be concerned for Iran’s people, they continue to aid and abet Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza. What is happening in Iran? How does it relate to Palestine and broader global developments and how does Western propaganda aim to prepare public opinion for another intervention aimed at imposing total American-Israeli hegemony? Can Iran face off against this hybrid war of sanctions, massive disinformation, covert action and military threats? To discuss these questions, we speak to Mohammed Marandi, political analyst and professor of comparative literature at the University of Tehran. This is a segment from The Electronic Intifada's livestream on day 832 of the Gaza genocide. Ali Abunimah, Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer and Asa Winstanley were joined by political analyst Mohammad Marandi.
