Iran Is Using Schools for Military Command and Control, and Pravda Ignores That Fact

Nobody should be surprised that Iran has adopted the Hamas strategy of conducting warfare out of hospitals and schools, and I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that Pravda is covering it up.

Yet I continue to be a bit shocked at the latter, because I still can't quite wrap my head around the idea that an institution that is key to upholding Western constitutional values would betray us in favor of the worst people on Earth.

Silly me. There really is no level of depravity to which many of these people will not stoop.

Holy sh*t

Members of the basij and IRGC armed forces are hiding in SCHOOLS to shield themselves from strikes.

Where are the leftists and mainstream media? Why wont they talk about the regime in Iran turning schools into military zones?

Using schools and hospitals for military purposes makes them legitimate military targets under international law, and of course, our Pravda Media is quite big on making ridiculous interpretations of international law when it suits their purposes.

During the Israel/Hamas war, we were often treated to bogus claims about Israel targeting hospitals, and much of the "genocide" narrative depended on ignoring the fact that Hamas was using human shields and operating out of hospitals. Now that the war is over, we are learning that doctors whom the media portrayed as interested only in saving lives were high-level Hamas operatives, and no doubt the media was quite well aware of that fact.

So that’s where the Palisquatters got that idea... Using schools and hospitals to stage attacks, and even if you lose you give the liberal media supporters something to use as propaganda for the cause. 100 school children dead, etc., etc.
