Here’s What the Media Was Silent with Iran Funeral of Soleimani

Iran is doing what all tyrannical nations do when one of their top officials dies. They’re bribing and threatening people to come to the funeral so that it appears that the person was loved and well respected. It’s definitely the type of propaganda that you would see somewhere like North Korea.

The reality is quite the opposite. The only people who gave a crap about Qasem Soleimani are those in the oppressive and terroristic regime as well. Everyone else in Iran has been expressing how happy they are that he is dead and that America did a great thing by getting rid of him.

Liberal Americans, on the other hand, are so idiotic and ignorant of the world that they’re sad that he’s gone and condemn President Trump for taking the action that he did to eliminate a great threat to our nation and our troops overseas.

Ali Safavi provided a screenshot and translation of the official Iranian news website stating that free meals would be provided to those who attend the funeral.

According to WaPo,

Over the next few days, it will be hard to escape footage of huge crowds gathering in Iranian cities to mourn the death of Qasem Soleimani, the Iranian general killed by a U.S. drone strike. For anyone watching, I have one piece of advice: Don’t take what you’re seeing at face value.

But what to make of the crowds of flag-waving mourners streaming across TV screens? Without doubt, Soleimani had support among hard-liners and regime loyalists. The regime is not taking any chances, though. In the city of Ahvaz, where large numbers of people turned out to mourn Soleimani, the government has forced students and officials to attend. It provided free transport and ordered shops to shut down. According to videos sent to me by people inside the country, the authorities are making little kids write essays praising the fallen commander. First-graders who didn’t know how to write were encouraged to cry for Soleimani.

Some Iranians have compared the funeral services for Soleimani to those held for the Nazi leader Reinhard Heydrich, the Butcher of Prague, killed by Allied agents during World War II.
