I honestly think Khamenei is dead or dying and there's a serious power vacuum going on because the fact it's gone on this long without a coordinated pushback suggests to me there's a major power struggle in Tehran Caveat: not an Iranian expert by any means but something seems off with leadership. They would have had this locked down previously

mobby_6kl posted:People seem to be suddenly mad at this NIAC thing, whatever that is The NIAC is the National Iranian American Council is an Iranian-American advocacy organization. There's been a lot of criticism over the years that people feel it has been dominated by people who apologize for the IRI as they have been advocating for greater diplomatic interaction between Iran and the US. I find it a little tricky since there's a large portion of Iranian expatriates who found any diplomatic engagement with the IRI to be intolerable, but a lot of that belief has, up until now, seemed like it was based on a regime change pipe dream. https://www.niacouncil.org/ We can hope these protests are a sign of greater change to come, but I really don't know if anyone can predict what is coming. Plenty of totalitarian regimes have been able to stamp this out and Iran throwing their lot in with Russia is not a great sign. Anyone thinking the CIA is competent or connected enough in Iran to be pulling the strings here is deluded. The major problem for the US (that shows in most of our interactions with Iran since the 1970s) is that we have never had any accurate idea what the hell is going on there and we have not being able to change that despite trying to do so for decades.

Not seeing much protest footage but looks like the climbing lady made it back in one piece , having obviously been briefed on how the scarf just "fell off accidentally" https://twitter.com/AlinejadMasih/status/1582537088800813057 https://twitter.com/Shayan86/status/1582562067894050817

She should have just asked for sanctuary status somewhere as soon as they said she would be sent to prison upon return so she didn't have to make some fake apology

Not super-confirmed at this point but would make sense, all things considered quote:Sources told Palmer that after the video of Rekabi competing without a headscarf went viral, the climber was invited to the Iranian Embassy in Seoul on a ruse. Once there, she was stripped of her phone and passport and put on a plane to Tehran.
