‘Democracy’? UK blocks access to Iranian media

The UK is blocking access to Iranian media, in an attempt to prevent British citizens accessing information and narratives that don’t fit into US and Israeli propaganda.

Earlier today, on 28 February, Israel and America attacked Iran in a nakedly colonial attempt to force regime-change.

While UK and other US-aligned media are free to spout US-Israeli talking points, access to Iran’s Tasnim News from UK servers is blocked.

One work around is VPN access and, like magic, the site opens without problems.

Truth is the first casualty of war, as the old saying goes. But this is not ‘fog of war’ – this is a deliberate, democracy-undermining push by the unaccountable UK elite. Their aim is to lull the public into silence and mislead them into supporting an all-out illegal colonial war which denies Iran the legal right to resistance.
