FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
“Americans are making a grave mistake if they think by making threats they
will destroy the Iranian nation,” the Ayatollah said in an address to
thousands of people in Mashhad.
He also called on Iran’s citizens to buy Iranian goods to stop “foreign plots”
and keep the nation’s economy functioning, as foreign sanctions exacerbate
prise rises and inflation of the rial, Iran’s currency.
The US is employing sanctions and deterring foreign banks from dealing with
Iranian institutions in order to help counter Iran’s ongoing nuclear
programme.
The European Union has also issued an embargo on Iranian oil, due to begin in
July.
Iran’s nuclear programme has caused grave concern among foreign nations, and
Israel in particular sees it as a direct threat.
Israeli Foreign Minister Ehud Barak said on Monday that the programme was on
the verge of becoming immune to disruptions caused by military strikes,
fuelling suspicion that Israel may conduct such a strike before Iran
relocates most of its nuclear facilities underground.
Iran, dubbed an “enemy of the internet” by Reporters Without Borders,
vigilantly monitors and censors the internet, which roughly 13 per cent of
its population uses. In 2010 the country’s powerful Revolutionary Guard
created a “cyber army” to police the web, and earlier this year plans for a
national internet were announced.
This month the Ayatollah ordered officials to establish a body to monitor and
manage the internet, called the Supreme Council of Virtual Space. Sitting on
this council would be President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the information and
culture ministers and police and Revolutionary Guard chiefs. The council’s
remit is to define policy and coordinate decisions concerning the internet.
