Regime’s Barbarism on Full Display: Iranians Swarm Key Infrastructure with CIVILIANS as Human Shields in Desperate Bid to Shield Mullahs’ Regime from US Attacks

Iran’s bloodthirsty mullahs are now openly turning their own citizens, including children and young people, into human shields around the regime’s critical power plants and key infrastructure sites.

As The Gateway Pundit reported just hours ago, Iran’s Deputy Minister for Youth Affairs and Secretary of the Supreme Youth Council, Alireza Rahimi, has brazenly called on “young people, athletes, artists, students and professors” to gather around the nation’s power plants at 2 p.m. local time today.

They’re dubbing it the “Iran’s Youth Human Chain for a Bright Future.”

Reports flooding in confirm Iranians are already gathering en masse around key sites. Videos on social media show crowds forming human chains at power plants nationwide, with state media blasting the call as a “show of solidarity.”

I’m wondering that too. Where is the “reasonable” new regime that the peesident was talking about just a day or two ago?

Something tells me this contingency has already been planned for.

They’re clueless, since they have no internet access. Anybody know how Iran state media is reporting this?

EMP. Electro-Magnetic Pulse. It does not kill people but it does destroy electric equipment. Drop a few of those .

Takes more bombs but not big ones. Just blow up the power lines.

I thought we set their nuclear program back years with the big bombers a few months ago. Now you’re saying three weeks?!
Who’s telling the truth here?!

The general population has no internet.....iranian leaders and state media do for propaganda purposes.....and this is proof.

Exactly! They self-identified as terrorist supporters. Just as guilty as the mulluh-muzoid terrorists themselves.

Forgive my ignorance, but isn’t there a munition that gently rains down carbon (?) filaments that short-circuits power stations?

Bomb them where they are not. If they surround a power plant....bomb the power lines going away from the plant..like knock down 15 towers separated from each other so their repair crews are stretched thinly...in the most inaccessible places...duh...when they go to fix it....warthogs...

Bomb the fuel delivery system to the power plant. Create short circuits along the power output trail...

Steal the oil...charge transit fees to China and other unfriendlies including Spain, France, England, etc

Cut off electricity to M.Khamenis hospital.

In honor of Artemis crew, knock out a few sewage treatment or sewer lines.....derail militarily important railroads...

I was wondering who was derailing our trains, blowing up our refineries, causing blackouts, etc... and I think I know now. I bet you we found out it was Iran or the proxies...

“Drop a couple of bombs slightly off target.....they’ll move”

I am ambivalent to if they do, or do not move, anymore. I don’t like war, but I do agree with Sherman— the more cruel it is the faster it ends.

Anyone who thinks Trump didn't see this coming is dense.
Now let's see his real plan go into action.

Okay, now you detailed strategic and tactical possibilities, rather than “bombing them back into the Stone Age” as the president and his men are so fond of threatening, as are many bold keyboard warriors here.

Confusing, to say the least.
