This is the Iranian President, Masoud Pezeshkian. You only need to watch the first minute of his Iranian Nowruz (new year) speech yesterday to see his demeanour and body language. The hands flopping down on his thighs as if the life energy has been sucked out of him. With no authority afforded him as President after apologising to the Gulf states for Iran attacking them, he been trying to resign, but not allowed to. Now emanating hostage vibes as if the IRGC have told him “if we die, then you die too.” I watched the whole thing. Repetitive and mostly appealing to the Gulf states that they are their “Muslim brothers & sisters” and Iran “only wants peace and tranquility”. This as ballistic missiles from Iran were raining down on Qatar, Saudi and Kuwait and four Palestinian women near Hebron in the West Bank died after “missile fragments hit a hair salon after an Iranian missile attack on Wednesday night” as reported by Middle Eastern Eye. They go on to say: “Palestinian authorities could not confirm if the shrapnel that killed them came from an Iranian missile or from an Israeli interceptor used to shoot it down.” Interesting to note that the BBC report on the same story reads “Iran has repeatedly fired missiles with cluster-bomb warheads at Israel… munitions which release large numbers of bomblets mid-flight, scattering them over a wide area.” The politicisation of the deaths of innocent civilians continues. #IranIsraelUSAWar
