You should have seen so many lies about Iran by now to justify the neocolonial war against them: so why do you assume every time some newly reported "fact" about them to be true? Rather, you should assume the opposite.

I think more than the problem with the "world" you have in mind, that is the western "democratic" capitalistic junta, there is a problem with the people in the west in general, seeing how many people are interested in this issue on this forum and elsewhere.

It is not genocide until it is called genocide, or at least this is what the people in the west apparently think. Otherwise one would expect orders of magnitude more of indignation and outcry.

In Israeli schools (I was in one of them) history teachers liked to pose the question: "how it was possible that such horror (genocide of the European jews) took place, and the world stayed silent?"

Well, today this question can be studied first hand.

I am "fairly positive" that had Machiavelli lived today, the various Guardians would label him a conspiracy theorist. After all, we all know that politicians can be "flawed people", but the democratic institutions are working for the people and we all head towards a bright feature where everything is a green democracy, there are no dictators, no communists, and the military is there only for protecting us from asteroids..
