Iran Asks Youth To Make 'Human Shields Around Power Plants' Ahead Of Trump's Tuesday Deadline | Reports

Lord Fuckwad

I won't tolerate such libel.

Iraq ran big electric cables into the marshlands too, so when they saw Iranians coming across they flipped a switch and dropped whole groups instantly. It was a nasty war.

Wouldn't it make more sense to use the old/dying population for that and not their future soldiers.... I guess those people aren't nice enough to do that

Anyone interested in some crazy shit that happened should check this out: (from the Wikipedia page for Operation Ramadan) [edit: Basij were the devout Islamic volunteers] >The Basij launched human wave attacks on Iraqi positions, inspired before battle by tales of Ashura, the Battle of Karbala, and the glory of martyrdom. Sometimes an actor (usually an older soldier) would play the part of Imam Hossein and, on a white horse, gallop along the lines, providing the inexperienced soldiers a vision of "the hero who would lead them into their fateful battle before they met their God".[6] The "martyrs" had signed "Passports to Paradise" (as admission forms to the Basij were nicknamed), received a week of basic military training by the Revolutionary Guard, and were sent directly to the front lines.[6] The human wave assaults, often with no support from other military branches due to rivalry with the remnants of the former Imperial Iranian Army,[6] were met with crushing artillery, rocket, and tank fire from Iraq's defence that caused massive losses to the Iranian side.[6] They were also getting tear-gassed pretty much constantly. I don't remember where I read it but there was some story from an Iranian soldier who somehow survived and ended up in Iraq years later, he talked about seeing a "medic" (a man whi had performed a few emergency surgeries after industrial accidents at a factory) and the guy was doing his best to treat a dude whose leg had been essentially turned into a tentacle and these tear-gassed soldiers came and mobbed the medic and the wounded guy, trying to get their backpacks and water canteens and when there were maybe 15 or 20 guys all clamoring, the whole assemblage just (paraphrasing but close) "took a bolt, a lightning bolt, from a plane and there was no part of a body that made sense with another." And he says his eardrums got blown out by the blast. I know it wasn't as "cinematic" like the way I'm summarizing it, but it sounded like absolute hell on Earth. 

It’s crazy how senior citizens with a short time left on this planet are so willing to sacrifice the young with their whole lives ahead of them, just so those old farts can have a better last few years.

"Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?" "Sorry, I don't listen to rap"

I'm old enough to remember that.

It gets mentioned in this post but I have never ever heard of that before

You'll get a 25 virgin in the afterlife bonus on top of the standard martyr reward of 75. Imagine, 100 virgin women enslaved to you for all eternity. All you gotta do is be a human shield.

Exactly. The IRGC has openly called up kids as young as 12 to serve in the past few weeks. And seemingly kids younger have been given roles, too. An 11yo boy was placed on a Basij checkpoint and recently lost his life as a result.

Saddam used this during the second US-Iraq war as well. You want to blow up your target? You also have to blow up 40-50 innocent kids.

Precisely. I’ve been attacked on Listnook so many times for pointing this out. This is why the Islamic Republic needs to go. To those of you who genuinely even care about Palestinians, hopefully this is a wake up call. You want peace for them? The Islamic Republic is the reason they are in the situation they are in. As an Iranian, I can vouch for this. They are f****** evil.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjTQx-Sar94&t=30s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjTQx-Sar94&t=30s) Here is a video of Palestinian kids getting hit by a car they were pelting with rocks. Note how there is conveniently a dozen adults ready with cameras to capture the moment. Iran sending kids to stand where a bomb is expected isn't surprising. They also historically liked to send kids to clear minefields.

The South Park Movie?

Listnook is unwilling to admit that human shields impede Israeli operations because Israel goes to great lengths to minimize civilian casualties. Trump will just carpet bomb civilians without a care in the world.

The baby smiled at you?

My mom's brother is in Iran right now and he said he personally got a visit from their new leader who instructed him personally to defend one of the power plants himself. He's now standing on the roof waiting for the missile to drop slinging hail Mary's. Praise be to Allah.

But this tells us they are monsters and we have no choice but to destroy their ability to have power and clean water. Because we're good. Why would we question such a simple message from this messenger?

There's a difference between defending the Iranian regime, and being against starting a war that will kill thousands (maybe even tens of thousands) more iranians *that isn't trying to change that regime*. Even if they were trying for it, it's so incredibly hard to enact regime change - we've been down this road so many times and it never ends well. So, instead, we get a useless war killing people, destroying the global economy, costing Americans far more than healthcare would have.... For f****** nothing. So yeah I'm f****** against that war, and defending the IRGC isn't remotely part of that.

It's not defending Iran to point out that the United States shouldn't be bombing them.

aka closed door gunning and hanging

I'm curious, where did you go to school?

WW2 really is the exception to the norm. It's why all the propaganda harks back to it all the time. Your specific country might have one or two others that are cleaning, your propaganda will probably focus on those two.

Well a war 1000 years ago, a war raging in England that killed 1.5 million people in 5 years would mean about 50% of the population was dead.

I think this is lost on a lot of people. yeah it's not a great situation that is happening but nowhere near the bad times of history. it is a pretty isolate and limited war comparatively.

On non-combatant men too, they also deserve our pity!

A limited protest at a specific day and specific time does not constitute protecting your power plants with human shields. Title is misleading 

There's TONS of Iranian regime supporters here. They were out in huge numbers at the very start of the war but it's died down. However, they're still out there tryint to control the narrative, but they can't keep up with the truth. The B****** IRGC must die.

They can't fathom the idea Iran can be equally fucked up.

And cured cancer and was the first man on Mars. That soldier? George Santos.

It’s honestly crazy to see them having sympathy for the IRGC

Man, that is an UGLY hyperlink
