The Spin

Pro-Iran narrative

Any military strike on Iran would constitute an illegal war of aggression — a supreme crime under international law. Americans don't want this conflict, which serves only to enrich greasy politicians cashing AIPAC checks while delivering nothing for working people. Every American casualty from this manufactured crisis falls squarely on Israel's shoulders.

Anti-Iran narrative

The Iranian regime has acted with impunity for nearly 47 years, spreading terror from Bulgaria to Buenos Aires, killing thousands of Americans, and now massacring protesters in their own streets. Trump's armada heading toward Iran represents long-overdue accountability for a tyrannical government that kidnaps naval personnel and brazenly arms terrorist proxies across the Middle East.
