On Iran, (Ir)rationality, and Those Who Didn’t See Any Destabilisation of The Region in Israel’s Genocide

Do you remember how Iran would be called an irrational, unpredictable actor for years?

In my video, I invite you to notice how that narrative is crumbling, and how the ones who accuse Iran of destabilising the region happen to be the same ones who forget that it was Iran that was attacked first.

I invite you to see through this constructed narrative. Especially, as we know now that it is being used by those who have no issues to actively support an ongoing genocide.

I also give you another example of that irrationality when it comes to a perceived threat of war in my own country.

I mention satire in my video a couple of times. Here are two examples of statements that I myself had a very natural reaction to:

As I mentioned in my video, today is International Mine Awareness Day. While my country, Lithuania, shamefully left the Mine Ban Treaty last year, I invite you to follow organisations that understand the importance of banning what kills civilians years after conflicts, and support those who advocate for and fund demining (like Legacies of War, and organisation whose work I’ve had the honour of promoting for some time).

As always, stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.

An Interview on Iran and Israel You Have to See

This is an absolute must-watch: Jeremy Scahill, one of the few journalists who interviews and is trusted by various actors, including the Iranian government, talks to Samir Mohyeddin about the U.S.-Iranian negotiations and Israel’s “fragile ceasefires” in Gaza and Lebanon. It’s a conversation good for our brains and conscience.

When Words Become Both The Representation And The Represented

The simplest propaganda technique – blatant lies – might be all that Israel and its supporters have left in their toolbox. Yet words with no meaning is what our leaders, too, have been resorting to for years now, following Israel itself.
