There, hundreds of thousands of people tweeted using the hashtag #IraniansDetestSoleimani. Many posts included descriptions of the carnage that he has wrought, both in his home country and in the broader region. And in a repeat of the outpouring of eyewitness testimony regarding recent anti-government protests, many of the verbal accounts were backed up by images,\u201d he added.<br \/>\n<br \/>https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1213885106819149830<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite anything you might have seen on television this week, ordinary Iranians are not mourning for Soleimani. To the extent that they were present on the streets of Tehran during his funeral, it was largely because the regime is masterful at managing public demonstrations and shaping a propaganda narrative around them,\u201d said Mr. Blackman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese feigned counter-protests were seen, of course, in the midst of the uprising that began on 15 November. The first week of that uprising was virtually a blind spot in international reporting since the government and authorities in Iran had cut off all access to the internet in order to halt the spread of objective information. But once connectivity was restored, State media rushed to portray counter-protesters as overcoming the voices of\u00a0\u2018rioters\u2019\u00a0and\u00a0\u2018thugs\u2019,\u201d\u00a0he added.<\/p>\n<p>Referring to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/26779-iran-s-regime-is-the-world-s-foremost-threat-to-peace-and-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IRGC<\/a>\u2019s role in brutally oppressing\u00a0both the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/iran-protests-2019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nationwide Iran protests\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0the\u00a0Iraqi people\u2019s uprising,\u00a0Mr. Blackman wrote:\u00a0\u201cJust in the last two months, more than 1,500 Iranians have been killed at the hands of the suppressive state security forces, principally\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/26772-ncri-exclusive-revealing-irgc-s-fear-of-arbaeen-ceremony-and-its-plan-of-oppression\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)<\/a>. The tactics on display in those killings were notably\u00a0similar to\u00a0those\u00a0utilized\u00a0against Iraqi protesters from mid-October onwards. It was at that time that Soleimani was dispatched to Baghdad to assist in putting down demonstrations that had begun to plainly target Iran\u2019s influence over the Iraqi government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe truth comes through unvarnished from exiled Iranians and members of pro-democracy opposition groups, like the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI-MEK)<\/a>\u00a0and the broader opposition coalition,<a href=\"https:\/\/ncr-iran.org\/en\/alternative\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u00a0the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI)<\/a>. These people will gladly tell the world about the crimes of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/27186-obituary-to-a-mass-killer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Qassem Soleimani<\/a>\u00a0and how they have harmed both Iran and the Middle East as a whole,\u201d wrote Mr. Blackman, referring to Soleimani\u2019s role in\u00a0suppressing dissidents such as members of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI, Mujahedin-e Khalq or MEK)<\/a>\u00a0in Iraq.<\/p>\n<p>While referring to the recent\u00a0protests in Iran, triggered after the regime downed a passenger airliner\u00a0last week, killing 176 passengers,\u00a0Mr. Blackman\u00a0wrote:\u00a0\u201cThe anti-regime protests in Iran last weekend reflect the genuine attitudes of the Iranian people. These protests are a continuation of those beginning in November and proceeding through December, reforming again and again in the face of harsh repression and 1,500 deaths. Iranians may not be willing to risk their lives in order to sit out a state-mandated memorial service, but they will do so in order to gather another day and repudiate what this dead terrorist stood for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>Bob Blackman is the Conservative Member of Parliament for Harrow East and a member of the British Committee for Iran Freedom.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bob Blackman MP on the Euronews website: Iranians Are Not Rallying Behind the Regime Written by&nbsp;Shahriar Kia&nbsp;on&nbsp;17 January 2020.
