The Spin

Anti-Iran narrative

Despite every US president in recent decades declaring it unacceptable for Iran to possess a nuclear bomb, Washington and the UN have recently turned a blind eye to how close Tehran is to developing nuclear weapons. While Iran has exaggerated its nuclear capabilities in the past, it now appears that no technological obstacle remains between Iran and a nuclear bomb. Given Tehran's recent regional aggression amid the Gaza war, this is a huge threat that demands decisive leadership.

Pro-Iran narrative

Despite corrupt international media making claims to the contrary, Iran continues to be in lockstep with the IAEA's wishes, as it pursues its goal of 20K megawatts of nuclear power by 2040. As Tehran works to produce a new energy source for its country, others are trying to paint it as an evil government hellbent on obtaining nuclear bombs. These smear tactics are putting the world at risk and should stop immediately.
