The Idiot’s Guide to the Israel — Iran Conflict.
Medium ^ | 06.22.2025 | Y. Fisher

Posted on 06/23/2025 2:22:47 AM PDT by Freeleesy

There is an shocking amount of misinformation and misunderstanding going on right now regarding Iran and Israel, and what brought us to this situation.

We need to unpack this and be brutally honest as this is much bigger than you think and affects literally the whole world.

You need to sit down and read this the entire way through and share widely — because this affects your life whether you want to admit it or not.

To understand what is going on, we need to go back 46 years, to 1979, when Ruholla Khomeini established the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) during the Iranian Revolution and replaced the Pahlavi Dynasty of the Imperial State of Iran with the “Islamic State of Iran”.. The history of the Iranian Revolution is exceedingly complex, but what is important for our purposes is that from the first days of the revolution the IRGC was Anti-American. On Nov 4, 1979 Khomeini supporters stormed the US Embassy in Tehran, leading to the Iran Hostage Crisis that lasted nearly 18 months.

Ayatollah Khomeini hated the US, and spent 1979 and 1980 explicitly calling for the death and destruction of the US, which he referred to as the “Great Satan”.

But it wasn’t just the US — Khomeini hated Britain as well. In 1979 he called for death and destruction of the UK because of the UK’s historical ties with the Shah prior to the revolution.

“Death to America” and “Death to the UK” were the first call signs of the IRGC.

At this point Israel was an afterthought — deemed the “Little Satan”.

During the 1980s the IRGC did two notable things: Solidify a global network of Jihadi-aligned death cults, and globalize terrorism.. This continued in the 90’s as well. The list of IRGC backed terror incidents that happened around the globe is startling, either directly supported by the IRGC or indirectly. In addition, the IRGC inspired countless lone-wolf terrorists who were motivated by “Khomeinism”, which espoused the most extreme and violent version of Jihad — spreading Islam through war.

“We have to wage war until all corruption, all disobedience of Islamic law ceases [throughout the world]. The Quran commands: “War! War until victory!” A religion without war is a crippled religion… Allah be praised, our young warriors are putting this command into effect and fighting. They know that to kill the infidels is one of the noblest missions Allah has reserved for mankind” — Ayatollah Khomeini
The IRGC was directly or indirectly behind some of the deadliest attacks of the 80s and 90s, including but definitely not limited to:

What the IRGC did in the 80s and 90s was to export and proliferate their unique brand of Islamo-fascist Jihadi kill-mongering directly to the front door of the Western World, expanding their tentacles across the globe. The root of IRGC’s terrorism is offensive.

Thousands of peole died, all because the IRGC deems anybody who is not an Islamo-fascist jihadi a kafir, and therefore deserves to die.

Israel was just an irritating thorn in the global agenda of the IRGC.

Over the years the IRGC has caused irreparable death and destruction across the Middle East.. Iran — and I mean the IRGC — has been directly involved with the deaths of millions in the Middle East.

This is driven by two factors. First is the 1300 years of hostility and violence between the Shia and Sunni camps of Islam (Iran is Shia). Secondly is that the IRGC wants complete Jihadi domination and couldn’t handle the fact that some countries wanted to move on and progress.



As much as there is rampant hatred of Jews in the region, many, if not most, of the countries surrounding Israel realize that the IRGC is much more dangerous.

The countries in the Middle East also realize the fact that Israel ultimately does not look to export terror and death, whereas the IRGC actively attacks, both locally and globally.

Iran, and I mean IRGC, actively pursues a policy of death.



Prince Mohammed bin Salman, current de-facto ruler of Saudi Arabia, went on record saying:

“I believe the Iranian supreme leader makes Hitler look good. Hitler didn’t do what the supreme leader is trying to do. Hitler tried to conquer Europe. … The supreme leader is trying to conquer the world.
But Israel — the “Little Satan” — was always there, close enough to merit attention, and became the inevitable stepping stone toward Islamo-fascist Jihadi domination.

Before the Revolution Iran was flourishing. It was still a monarchy, but Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi set out on an ambitious plan for modernization, including massive campaigns to push literacy and education, particularly for women. Westernization, industry, and women’s rights were hallmarks of Iran, which was one of the fastest growing economies in the world in the mid 70s.

All of that came to a screeching halt with Ayatollah Khomeini.

The desire to impose fascist Jihadi totalitarianism externally was matched by the brutal crackdown internally.

What emerged over the last decades is what many today are sadly ignorant of: The IRGC is probably the most flagrant abuser of human rights.

In order to maintain a stranglehold on the population, the IRGC is notorious for excessive force, torture, no due process, imprisonment, executions, and every other violation you can think of.

And it is not a bug in the system, it is a feature. It is how the IRGC maintains control.

And it is ongoing. Executions, violations against women and crackdowns are getting worse.



Yes Queers for Palestine, Iran really does hang Gays. The treatment of women by the IRGC is alarming. Executions, torture, rape, jail, and other horrors await women who dare to speak out. Mahsa Amini is one of countless women who have been executed under the IRGC regime and their “Morality Police”.



The IRGC’s all encompassing hatred for Jews and the West has taken precedence over every aspect of life, destroying the country and the people in its wake.

Maral Salmassi recently shared a *must watch* video on this.

Today Iran — specifically the IRGC — has become a globally connected massive web of terror, death, and destruction. They are everywhere. They are global. They are targeting you.

Below is a list of just a partial list of the organizations that are either directly or indirectly pushing or supporting the Islamo-fascist Jihadi aims of the IRGC around the world:



Many of these actors, like Satudaran, FARC, Zuman, and others, support IRGC endeavors through sex slave/drug trafficking, contract killing, money laundering, and other activities.

Right now as you read this there are sex slaves being trafficked across Europe for the benefit of the IRGC.

Right now as you read this children are employed by drug cartels in Columbia to raise money for the IRGC and their proxies.

Right now as you read this Africa is being ethnically cleansed by IRGC proxies.

Those knock-off Jimmy Choo’s on Canal Street? Also funding the IRGC.

Right now, as you read this, the IRGC is aiding and abetting the death of Ukrainians.



Right now, as you read this, the IRGC is funding a massive global campaign to infest the brains of teenagers across the globe with misinformation and lies — and they are succeeding.

(If you have not read the major Microsoft report on this — do this now)

Right now, as you read this, the IRGC is erasing history and manipulating you though shady influence channels across Europe and the United States.



National Union for Democracy in Iran: Report, June 2025





https://www.piratewires.com/p/how-wikipedia-s-pro-hamas-editors-hijacked-the-israel-palestine-narrative Right now, as you read this, the IRGC is doubling down on their insidious aims of brining “Death to America”, “Death to the UK”, and “Death to France” by supporting, funding, and abetting thousands of “lone wolf” terrorists around the globe.



Memri As for Israel — Israel has become the go-to target for all of the Jew-Hate and West-Hate of the IRGC.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps cannot have access to nuclear weapons. Full Stop. And it’s not just Israel who thinks so.

“A nuclear-armed Iran is not just a threat to Israel, it’s a threat to the world.” — Reagan 1983

“Make no mistake: we will continue to take all necessary measures to contain Iran’s attempts to acquire nuclear weapons.” — Clinton 1995

“The world must not permit the world’s most dangerous regimes to threaten us with the world’s most dangerous weapons.” — Bush 2002

“Iran must not build a nuclear weapon. That is a red line for us.” — Obama 2013

“If Iran were to obtain nuclear weapons, it would have disastrous consequences… We have to prevent this.” — Merkel 2008

“Iran’s nuclear program may lead to… the most serious round of nuclear proliferation since nuclear weapons were developed… That would be a disaster in world affairs.” — Hague 2012

“It is a key security priority for the EU to ensure that Iran does not acquire a nuclear weapon… Iran’s actions carry very significant proliferation risks and have no credible civilian justification.” — EU statement to the UN

What all of these leaders know, as well as leaders in the greater Middle East, even if they don’t say so publicly, is that the IRGC does not want nuclear weapons for deterrence.

The IRGC wants nuclear capabilities specifically for the purposes of expanding and proliferating their global aims of death and destruction.

Imagine a world where the IRGC provides nuclear arms to every one of their associated groups around the world. That is why the entire world — even those who are currently silent — are worried about.

This is what everybody knows. This is what everybody has known for years.

This is what Christopher Hitchens pointed out 14 years ago:

“This is the dirty work Israel is doing for all of us. We are also victims of this regime. This mullah regime has brought death and destruction to the world” — German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, June 15, 2025. Israel right now is doing what decades of negotiations, sanctions, carrot-and-stick diplomacy, and international agreements have failed to do.

Israel, alone, is attempting to rid the world of the potential death and destruction that the IRGC would inflict upon the globe if they had nuclear capabilities.

But why now? Keen readers will recall Netanyahu, in all his obnoxious pomposity, on the floor of congress issuing warnings back in 2015.

This time is different because there is proof.

On the 12th of June, 2025, the IAEA’s board of governors formally declared Iran in breach of it’s non-proliferation obligations:



In other words, IAEA stated what many people already knew, that Iran, specifically the IRGC, has been lying to the world for decades. Instead of enriching uranium for local energy needs, Iran has been building nuclear capabilities for the purposes of war.



CIA Director Ratcliffe, in a closed-door hearing, said Iran is dangerously close to having nuclear weapons, calling it “at the one-yard line.”

So it’s “Do or Die”. This was inevitable. And Israel, as the front line of the IRGC’s global hate and death campaign, has the most to lose and therefore took action.

What too many people forget is that this is not “preemptive”. Iran unilaterally launched 200 ballistic missiles at Israel on their own volition in October 2024.

Like Merz, a few brave politicians have dared to speak the truth about this situation:

Dutch Member of Parliament Ulysse Ellian, whose family members were killed by the regime, delivered a powerful speech exposing IRGC’s lies, on the 18th of June:

Sebastiaan Stoteler, European Member of Parliament from the Netherlands spoke up, as did European Member of Parliament Bart Groothuis.

The always brilliant Konstantin Kisin gave his two succinct cents as well:



The sons and daughters of Israel are right now risking their lives to protect your sons and daughters.

Too many people have conveniently forgotten what the IRGC stands for. Too many people have forgotten what the IRGC does. And too many people don’t know how the IRGC is already a virus that has infected the globe.

I pray for a quick resolution to this ordeal that doesn’t engulf the entire region.

But people need Wake Up because you are next.

I read the entire opus. I must admit, it did not change my opinion on this matter.

It reinforced it.

Islamic regime of Iran, and their many proxies, are a threat to the entire civilized world. Israel is doing the Lord’s work by curtailing this threat. The US is right to support this effort.

Trump and Netanyahu are heroes.

The Munich massacre occurred in 1972, before the Islamic takeover of Iran in 1979. But the very same deadly Islamic ideology. Iran would kill every non-Muslim if they were able.

The facts have always been out there. There’s no misinformation just very stupid people who refuse to acknowledge the facts and will believe and state the exact opposite of what is true. Doesn’t matter what the topic is.

The IRGC is an armed, terrorist, mafia organization headed by the Supreme leader Khamenie. Never forget that he is behind the final decisions.

Yes. Three presidential terms of this vile man have done incalculable damage.

Not exactly a blessing to live in the middle east. I hope this will be over, soon. But may be I am too optimistic. Too many people there who hate each other.

(Macro - society)

You cannot think less of people who do not see this regards Iran.

You need to remember that in America, people live in a bubble.

They know little about the world outside US borders, MOST never leave the US: 54% of Americans never leave the country in their lifetime, AND the majority who do leave the country merely go to Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Canada, and Venezuela.

Public education in our nation is abysmal (low standards and highly ideological), the arts and media are full of pop culture themes, push their ideological agendas (was LGBTQIA, now it's woman's empowerment), and avoid anything which could be (((truly))) controversial. Our arts an media pick controversial topics like insulting the Pope or making fun of Catholic priests... things where they face no real repercussions.

Politically and in the bureaucracy you have a very high turn over rate. There is little true “institutional knowledge.”

(Micro - individual)

We might be a nation that splices genes, sends satellites out of our solar system, build experimental fusion rectors, build the first nuke, go to the moon, deepest trench in the ocean, develop the Integrated Circuit (IC is what the entire digital revolution is based on) and Smartphones... but man are we stupid when it comes to any knowledge about the rest of the world.

Most Americans today get their news from Social Media. Think about that for a second.

All you need is some guy to write catchy slogans, show some images of poor Palestinians, and you can get American college kids, gays and women included, wearing their Palestinian scarves to go protest for that group.

A few years back, when LGBTQIA was the big thing, you had “college educated” folks running around and screaming about gay genes (which don't exist), their self defined gender which eventually grew to a list of like 26 different ones... XX and XY didn't matter anymore. Yeah, they're that stupid.

Even if they are spending $40,000 a year on their higher education, most lack wisdom and the ability to critically think. They are literally, textbook, Websters defined, ignorant but have really strong feelings about things: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ignorant;

Bottom line: You need to run information campaigns (like this article) to basically teach people what should be common knowledge because they are so clueless that if you do not do such, the other side will fill their head with shit which they will take as the truth.

Many of those claiming ignorance are simply Jew haters, those who will take the side of even the most horrendous araseholes if it justifies their own hatred. That is the primary source of “poor people of Iran”, “religious freedom”, etc claims.

1979???

How about 1953 - when elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mossaddegh was overthrown aka ‘regime change’ by MI6 and the CIA on behalf of BP, installing the brutal Shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi who ruled until 1979.

War pigs.
