Propaganda works because when repeated enough most people believe it.  

The disturbing irony of the latest State Department annual report on terrorism finds the world’s leading state sponsor, America, accusing Iran, threatening no one, without just cause. The same false accusation repeats annually.

The State Department’s report was falsified rubbish, more proof of US hostility toward Iranian sovereign independence, wanting pro-Western tyranny replacing it, an Israeli rival eliminated, the nation’s huge oil and gas reserves looted, its people exploited – at the same time diminishing Russia’s regional influence.

State Department acting counterterrorism coordinator Justin Siberell turned truth on its head, claiming “Iran remains the leading sponsor of terrorism globally…(providing) a range of support, including financial, training and equipment to (terrorist) groups around the world.”

Fact: No evidence supports the State Department’s falsified claims.

Fact: Virtually all significant terrorist groups worldwide are US created and supported, including ISIS, Al Qaeda, Jabhat al-Nusra (Al Qaeda in Syria) and their affiliates.

Fact: America is the greatest threat to world peace, responsible for violent, destabilizing, chaotic conditions on every continent.

Fact: Its imperial madness risks WW III, the possibility of nuclear war on Russia and/or China considerably heightened if Hillary Clinton succeeds Obama.

Last year’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) nuclear deal did virtually nothing to normalize US/Iranian relations. Neocons infesting Washington and the power of Israel over US foreign policy prevent it.

Regime change is longstanding imperial policy – by color revolution or war. The latest State Department report on terrorism shows US policy toward Iran remains hostile – virtually unchanged since its 1979 revolution, likely worsening next year no matter who succeeds Obama.

Fomenting unrest serves US interests. Fostering even-handed relations with all nations defeats them.

America’s drive for global hegemony needs enemies. None exist so they’re invented – sovereign independent nations like Iran threatening no one targeted.
