In the latest episode of ‘Sanchez Effect‘, we take a deep dive into the real story behind the protests sweeping Iran with a guest who joins us from Tehran. Professor Marandi reveals that Israel is practically waving its national flag, admitting it orchestrated these protests, while Western media outlets conveniently look the other way. Rick points out that even Mike Pompeo acknowledged that Mossad agents were alongside demonstrators in Tehran – a delightful setup for a color revolution! But they’ve had no luck so far. Professor Marandi says it’s because when the violence escalated, the Iranian government shut down the internet immediately and protests fizzled out very quickly. That can only mean one thing – they were being coordinated from abroad. And without internet? Oops...didn't see that coming.
Rick can’t help but wonder why Israel, usually tight-lipped about its operations, would admit to being involved in this one. Marandi argues that the language of politics is shifting – just look at Trump and his tactics with Venezuela and now Greenland. Speaking of which, the US president isn't backing down, which has caused Danish officials to panic. That’s as Rutte continues his usual diatribe that China and Russia are responsible for all the world's woes. When Greenland looks to him for help, though, he can only offer a big “NO COMMENT.” But don’t worry, unlike Daddy Trump’s golden boy, we've got plenty of comments and insights lined up for you
