They already spent that pallet of cash Soetoros sent them?
Mike Tobin of FOX News reporting that over half of Iran’s missile capability has been taken down. Massive evac of Tehran in progress.
They could always dump leaflets.
The article is talking about how Iranian people are running out of cash to buy necessities as the attacks continue and the internet fails and the banking infrastructure collapses.
Its a great argument against the idea of Central Bank Digital Currencies, which are ultimately dependent on fragile electronic communication systems.
Russia can bail them out - wait?
Strange statement given that Iran is already the center of those wider conflicts.

I don’t believe anything from either government now (Iran’s or Israel’s).
And WaPo uses anecdotal arguments in this article but they did report that Iran had cracked down on the internet which was to be expected from Iran.
Now we’re about to most likely see a ton of fake news coming out of Israel given a new crackdown on reporting there.
No one is asking the Israeli govt to report the damage being done in their country, which appears to be worse than what is being reported by legacy media.
Sadly, there’s no sense now in believing the reports coming from the Israeli government that the missle strikes in Israel aren’t thst bad, or not as bad as claimed by sone, and to not believe Col. MacGregor (and others, btw).
Obviously not everyone has done or would do what some teporters have done or gone as far as to report exact locations.
I guess we can enjoy our most likely fake news from here on, or potential new Ghost of Kyiv-like stories coming out of Israel.
And pointing our the flaws of what the Israeli government is doing does not make someone Iran First. It’s illogical to say otherwise:
“Ben-Gvir and Karhi crack down on foreign press coverage of war damage in Israel”

“Its a great argument against the idea of Central Bank Digital Currencies, which are ultimately dependent on fragile electronic communication systems.”
Very good point and one not often considered or discussed.
McGregor is a pipeline for the Russians. Just in case you haven’t figured that out by now- and it appears you haven’t.

(Either that, or you don’t mind getting your news from the Kremlin, which seems to be the case.)
“shaking the population’s confidence that it could remain insulated from conflicts in the wider Middle East”
well, it’s exactly what the German population thought for the first year or two of WWII that the nazis started with the rest of the world ...
in fact, just replace “Iran/Iranian” with “German” OR ‘nazi” and replace “Israel” with “the Allies”, and the entire wapo article [ https://archive.ph/sDV82] would read pretty the same as if had been written towards the end of WWII ...
Not sure why Israel hasn’t started destroying Iran’s power grid.
Just a few sorties with guided bombs could darken half of Iran.
Regime change would come pretty quick when half the population has no AC, fridges or night time lights or TV. And the other half fears it will happen to them too.
When quantum computing comes online all encryption will be useless and we will have to go back to physical money.
The other unspoken mystery to this is why won’t Iran move its government to Iraq and hide in the Shia political reality there?
The communist Chinese flew in “strategic cargo” to Iran right through the USA- Israeli “air supremacy” cordon.
We haven’t heard or seen what is in it. But it could be very dangerous.
There’s been something keeping the Satanjc Iranian dictators going. Hoping for new advanced weapons from communist China, perhaps?
Israel has got this all on its own.
