They are allies.
It begins and ends there.
It is not my place nor yours to question how allies react to attempts by a warmongering West to destabilise or destroy them.

America does not share any common border with either Britain or the European Union, but they all have been scavenging around the world together, hand in hand, unleashing genocide for fun; Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan,Libya,Vietnam, Ukraine, Cotedvoire, Syria.., endless

The ultimate aim of the NATO proxy war in Ukraine, is to dismember Russia. That should never be allowed to happen, because it will entrench a unipolar world. Comparing the experiences of the developing world during the days of the "US and USSR" with the present pugnacious American dictatorship in world affairs post collapse of the USSR, I prefer the former.

The developing world is now basically slaves to the west.
The North Koreans do not want that. They know that after Russia, the West will go for China and ofcourse North Korea. So it shows inventive leadership on Kim's side that they have chosen to fight that future war now in Russia.
They did the right thing!
See this one. So North Korea putting troops on Ukrainian soil is the right thing but Israel attacking terrorist elements in Gaza and attacking Iran who is the chief sponsor is bad abi. This is an open show of hypocrisy. The West that you are badmouthing is far better than Russia and it's allies e.g China. I'd rather work for an American, British or German than to work for Chinese. They value human rights more. I'm sure if you are given an opportunity to travel to any of the Western countries you're condemning, I'm sure you'll grab the opportunity with speed but you come here to paint them bad

The fact that you added "I'm a Christian" shows that you're lying. You're not a Christian. You're just trying to convince him to stop supporting Israel. Not possible! I don't think you know how powerful Israel is. You see how they were taking out Iran military officers like flies. That's how to win a war and not by shooting missiles indiscriminately. Go and read about Israel and their many inventions then you'll understand why US and much of Europe cannot let any other nation harm them. US backing them does not mean they are weak. In war, you'll have allies. Russia and China are allies of Iran. When North Korea sent soldiers to help Russia in the war with Ukraine, you didn't say Russia is weak. You kept mute

Jakpon:
This right here is the kind of gibberish one would utter if one lacks understanding of Geo-politics. Giving the Israel - Iran Conflict a religious coloration shows how ignorant a lot of people are.

Are you aware that there are more Christians in Iran than they are in Israel. Judaism is the official state religion of Israel. A large percentage of Israeli don't even believe that Jesus is the Messiah.

Iran - Syria - Palestine has more combined Christian population than Israel. The Church of Nativity in Bethlehem, the site where Jesus was born, is located in Palestine, yet some ignorant Christians are happy that Israel is bombing fellow Christians in Palestine.

Ignorant Nigerian Muslims were also happy that Iranian missiles were hitting Israel, oblivious of the fact that the third holiest site in Islam is the Al aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, Israel
Where are the Christians in Iran? Iran has no single church for any Christian. it is an Islamic Republic. Israel on the other hand has churches and a good number of Christians. That Bethlehem you see was originally for Israel. Jesus was a Jew so don't even attempt to spill hogwash
Foreign Affairs › Iran Carries Out Arrests And Executions by Azazyel(op): 4:23pm On Jun 27, 2025
Iran carries out wave of arrests and executions in wake of Israel conflict

BBC Persian

A mural in Tehran's Enqelab Square
Iranian authorities have carried out a wave of arrests and multiple executions of people suspected of links to Israeli intelligence agencies, in the wake of the recent war between the two countries.

It comes after what officials describe as an unprecedented infiltration of Iranian security services by Israeli agents.

Authorities suspect information fed to Israel played a part in a series of high-profile assassinations during the conflict. This included the targeted killings of senior commanders from the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and nuclear scientists, which Iran attributes to operatives of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency working inside the country.

Shaken by the scale and precision of these killings, authorities have been targeting anyone suspected of working with foreign intelligence, saying it is for the sake of national security.

But many fear this is also a way to silence dissent and tighten control over the population.

During the 12-day conflict, Iranian authorities executed three people accused of spying for Israel. On Wednesday - just one day after the ceasefire - three more individuals were executed on similar charges.

Officials have since announced the arrest of hundreds of suspects across the country on accusations of espionage. State television has aired alleged confessions from several detainees, purportedly admitting to collaboration with Israeli intelligence.

Human rights groups and activists have expressed fears over the latest developments, citing Iran's longstanding practice of extracting forced confessions and conducting unfair trials. There are concerns that more executions may follow.

Iran's Ministry of Intelligence claims it is engaged in a "relentless battle" against what it calls Western and Israeli intelligence networks - including the CIA, Mossad, and MI6.

According to Fars News Agency, which is affiliated with the IRGC, since the beginning of Israel's attack on Iran on 13 June, "the Israeli spy network has become highly active inside the country". Fars reported that over the course of 12 days, Iranian intelligence and security forces arrested "more than 700 individuals linked to this network".

Iranians have told BBC Persian they received warning text messages from Iran's intelligence ministry informing them their phone numbers had appeared on social media pages related to Israel. They were instructed to leave these pages or face prosecution.

The Iranian government has also stepped up pressure on journalists working for Persian-language media outlets abroad, including BBC Persian and the London-based Iran International and Manoto TV.

According to Iran International, the IRGC detained the mother, father, and brother of one of its TV presenters in Tehran to pressure her into resigning over the channel's coverage of the Iran-Israel conflict. The presenter received a phone call from her father - prompted by security agents - urging her to quit and warning of further consequences.

When Iran's supreme leader emerges from hiding he will find a very different nation
'We are exhausted' - how Iranians are feeling after fragile ceasefire
After the conflict began, threats directed at BBC Persian journalists and their families have become increasingly severe. According to the journalists recently affected, Iranian security officials contacting their families have claimed that, in a wartime context, they are justified in targeting family members as hostages. They have also labelled the journalists as "mohareb" — a term meaning 'one who wages war against God' — a charge that, under Iranian law, can carry the death penalty.

Manoto TV has reported similar incidents, including threats against employees' families and demands to cut all ties with the outlet. Some relatives were reportedly threatened with charges such as "enmity against God" and espionage - both capital offences under Iranian law.

Analysts view these tactics as part of a broader strategy to silence dissent and intimidate exiled media workers.

Security forces have also detained dozens of activists, writers and artists, in many cases without formal charges. There are also reports of arrests targeting family members of those killed during the 2022 "Woman, Life, Freedom" anti-government protests.

These actions suggest a broader campaign aimed not only at current activists but also at those connected to previous waves of dissent.

During the war, the Iranian government severely restricted access to the internet, and even after the ceasefire, full access has not yet been restored. Limiting internet access during crises, especially during nationwide protests against the government, has become a common pattern by Iran. Additionally, most of the social networks like Instagram, Telegram, X and YouTube, as well as news websites such as BBC Persian, have long been blocked in Iran and cannot be accessed without using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) proxy service.

Human rights advocates and political observers have drawn parallels to the 1980s, when the Iranian authorities brutally suppressed political opposition during the Iran-Iraq War.

Many fear that, in the wake of Iran's weakened international standing after the conflict with Israel, the authorities may again turn inward, resorting to mass arrests, executions, and heavy-handed repression.

Critics point to events of 1988, when, according to human rights groups, thousands of political prisoners - many already serving sentences - were executed following brief, secretive trials by so-called "death commissions." Most victims were buried in unmarked mass graves.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Iranian Missiles Successfully Intercepted, no Casualties - Qatari Government by Azazyel: 12:27am On Jun 24, 2025
saraki2019:
Look closely at what’s really happening here. The sudden strikes on US bases in Iraq and Qatar aren’t just random acts of aggression—they’re a calculated response to decades of covert US interference in the region, especially the repeated attacks on Iran’s sovereignty, including those nuclear site strikes. The US has long been the puppet master destabilizing the Middle East to maintain control over its resources and geopolitical influence.

Now, notice how the mainstream media conveniently rushes to label Iran as the aggressor without questioning the legitimacy of Iran’s right to self-defense. The footage of missiles being intercepted over Doha? That’s likely exaggerated or staged to minimize the perception of Iranian strength and to justify future escalations by the US and its allies.

What if the explosions heard in Doha were from defensive systems deliberately triggered to create panic, while the real damage and message from Iran remain understated? Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have historically been meticulous in sending precise, strategic signals rather than reckless destruction. This show of force is Iran asserting it won’t be bullied, signaling a shift in regional power dynamics that the US desperately wants to obscure.

This isn’t just about missiles; it’s about exposing the hypocrisy of Western “peacekeeping” rhetoric. Iran is standing up to decades of covert operations, economic sabotage, and illegal strikes on its territory. And the silence or skepticism in Western media about the true cause behind this retaliation speaks volumes.

Keep watching the narratives—they’re designed to distract from the real story: Iran is fighting back against imperialism, and that is the truth they don’t want you to see.

EPA Protesters block a road during a protest over the death of young Iranian womanEPA
Last Friday, Israel launched massive air strikes on Iran, prompting Tehran to retaliate with barrages of missiles.

In a video message that day, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Iranian people that in addition to Israel's aim of thwarting Iran's nuclear programme, "we are also clearing the path for you to achieve your freedom".

Some sections of Iran's splintered opposition have rallied behind Netanyahu's call. Others are mistrustful of his objective.

There are no official opposition groups inside Iran, where authorities have long cracked down on dissent, including a wave of mass executions and imprisonments in the 1980s.

Since then, most opposition groups have operated from abroad, including two of the most organised groups: the pro-monarchy supporters of Reza Pahlavi, son of the last Shah of Iran, and the exiled Mojahedin-e Khalq Organisation (MEK/MKO).

It has become increasingly difficult for journalists to contact people inside Iran, due to the authorities restricting access to the internet and social media.

We have managed to speak to several young Iranians who oppose the regime - and have protested against it in the past - in recent days, however.

Their names have been changed for their safety as the Iranian authorities frequently imprison opponents in an attempt to suppress dissent.

Tara, 26, told the BBC that when Israel issues evacuation warnings ahead of strikes, authorities shut off internet access "so that people don't find out and the death toll rises".

Checkpoints and toll stations are also set up, she says, accusing authorities of "deliberately" creating traffic, which "encourages people to stay in targeted areas".

"Talking about patriotism, unity, and standing up to the enemy is absurd. The enemy has been killing us slowly for decades. The enemy is the Islamic Republic!"

The Israeli military has been issuing evacuation warnings via Telegram and X, which are banned in Iran. Coupled with limited internet access, this means it's difficult for Iranians to see the warnings.

Sima, 27, tells us she does not care about this anymore.

"I wish Israel would get the job done as soon as possible. I'm exhausted. Although I'm still not a fan of Israel or what it's doing, I hope they'd finish what they've started.

"Wishful thinking, I know. But I want them to rid us and the world of the threat of the IRGC [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps], [Ayatollah Ali] Khamenei and ayatollahs as a whole."

Khamenei, Iran's supreme leader, is commander-in-chief of the armed forces, including the powerful IRGC, which is tasked with defending the Islamic system and overseeing Iran's ballistic missiles. The recent Israeli strikes have killed many senior IRGC figures, including its commander, Hossein Salami.

Some people we spoke to were even more forceful in their support for Israel's attacks.

Amir, 23, said he supported them "100%". Asked why, he said he believed no-one else was prepared to take on the regime.

"Not the UN, not Europe, not even us. We tried, remember? And they killed us in the streets. I'm joyful when the people who've crushed our lives finally taste fear. We deserve that much."

Amir is referencing the widespread protests in Iran following the death of Mahsa Amini. The 22-year-old died in police custody in 2022 after being arrested for allegedly violating rules requiring women to wear the headscarf.

The Norway-based Iran Human Rights group reported that 537 protesters were killed by state security forces during the unrest. The government's official line is that "security forces acted with responsibility", blaming the deaths on violent protesters or foreign agitators.

The rallying cry of the protests - "woman, life, freedom" - was repeated by Netanyahu on Friday in both English and Persian, as he urged Iranians to "stand up and let your voices be heard".

Iran has not officially responded to the Israeli prime minister's calls, but some hardliners and media figures have mocked and dismissed the remarks. Meanwhile, authorities have warned against sharing campaigns and statements by Israeli and US officials.

Some opponents of the Islamic Republic are suspicious of Netanyahu's intentions, however.

"I participated in the protests [in 2022] because I had hope for a regime change then. I just don't see how the regime could be overthrown in this conflict without Iran itself being destroyed in the process," said Navid, a 25-year-old activist who was briefly arrested during the protests.

"Israel is killing ordinary people as well. At some point, people will start to take the side of the Islamic Republic," he added.

Darya, 26, said: "I think the fact that people are not coming out to protest is already a clear response" to Netanyahu's call.

"I wouldn't go even if Israel bombed my house. Netanyahu is hiding behind Iranian nationalist slogans and pretends he's helping Iranians reach freedom while he's targeted residential areas. It's going to take years just to rebuild the country."

Arezou, 22, said she did not know what to think.

"I hate the regime, and I hate what it's done to us. But when I see bombs falling, I think of my grandmother, my little cousin. And I've seen what Netanyahu did to Gaza - do you really think he cares about Iranians? This isn't about us, it's about [Israeli] politics," she said.

"I feel like I have to choose between two evils, and I can't. I just want my people safe. I want to breathe without fear."

Mina, 27, said: "I want this regime gone more than anything - but not like this. Not through more bombs, more death."

"Israel is not our saviour. When innocent people die, it's not a step toward freedom, it's another form of injustice. I don't want to trade one kind of terror for another. I'm against this regime and also against this war. We deserve a better way out than this."

From the geopolitics, am sure Ukraine will be happy now Isreal is striking iran as capability to provide Russia with those few weapons will be reduced significantly. And u think Russia will just fold its hand and allow Iran to be completely annihilated abi. I doubt
The aim of the war is not to decimate Iran. It is to end the nuclear production and end the current regime. That is why US and Israel carry out precision strikes not aimed at the civilians. Iran on the other hand have poor intelligence gathering so they resort to bombing civilians. Russia can only support with logistics but in a very careful manner cos they still have a war to fight. They have lost a lot of men and equipment in the war with Ukraine. Saudi is happy with the developments. They are working low-key with Mossad to ensure Ayatollah is taken out. Who do you think are the spies in Iran? They aren't just Jews. Arabs and Persians who are against the regime. Wake up! It's politics and not just any war that Russia would jump into
