Officials in New Delhi say that an Iranian warship that was sunk by a U.S. submarine near Sri Lanka had participated in naval exercises hosted by India before heading out into international waters in the Indian Ocean on its way home.
There is no carpet bombing of Tehran. This person is thus not a reputable source and you need to start doubting the rest of the claims until you find a better source.
Ryan Grim is an investigative journalist who has a strong track record of accurate and groundbreaking reporting. Whatever semantics arguments you have doesn’t make him any less reputable or this statement any less correct.
He’s providing context to help people understand what a Kurdish Iranian imam was saying about a washed up son of a former dictator. I’m not sure what’s more pathetic, your lack of reading comprehension or that you genuinely think Pahlavi is an “Iranian opposition leader”. lol
Reza Pahlavi is the de facto opposition leader. I know this, because I’m knee deep in the Iranian comma through family and friends. I speak the language and follow their media.
There’s a lot of other things I found when cursorily looking into Ryan Grim and Drop Site News, of which he’s a co-founder.
This account tries extremely hard to paint a picture that an organization was behind the protests, that it is “inorganic”. The articles spreads misinformation, distorts reality and ignores the brutality of the Islamic regime.
So what I see when I look at Ryan Grim’s reporting, is cherry picking of sources to fit an agenda.
They mean what they say and it is propaganda. In addition, the amount of civilian targets hit are few. The Islamic regime itself is responsible for a lot more deaths. The opinions of regime-critical Iranians inside the country can be summarized like this: yes, bombs are scary, but the regime is more scary.
Bro two hospitals and a school where they haven’t shown a valid target nearby is three civilian targets too many for the most technologically advanced military in the world.
Double tapping is just fuel on a bonfire but sure if prevaricating for fascists is your deal then carry on.
“russia would do” - when you say that to yourself remember that phrase is propaganda. it’s literally some shit the USA did do. Your “IDK” is cognitive dissonance.
Every statement of this tweet is factually false.
The US horrible things, but the attack of this ship was legal: https://www.uwa.edu.au/news/article/2026/march/us-sank-an-iranian-warship-and-didnt-rescue-survivors-is-this-legal-in-war
It was a cruel and cynical attack, but it adhered to the rules of warfare.
This doesn’t change that Trump is a monster and this war is horrible, but this torpedo attack itself was legal.

Hey, your reporter with “a strong track record” is posting gossip to discredit the Iranian opposition leader: https://x.com/i/status/2028841292856254552

For example, they’re interviewing Iran’s deputy foreign minister without asking any uncomfortable questions: https://www.youtube.com/live/9pU9x3sQ2-s
The coverage of the January 8-9 massacres is severely lacking. There is a lot of space given to the Islamic regime’s propaganda, for example this piece that claims to be “from the ground”: https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/interview-tehran-iran-protests-internet-blackout-israel-trump-pahlavi-riots

They mean striking civilian targets when they say carpet bombing, they don’t mean WW2 style mass dumb bombing.
They mean what they say and it is propaganda. In addition, the amount of civilian targets hit are few. The Islamic regime itself is responsible for a lot more deaths.

STOP JUSTIFYING THIS. YOU. ARE. BRAINWASHED.
Bro two hospitals and a school where they haven’t shown a valid target nearby is three civilian targets too many for the most technologically advanced military in the world.

IDK. Kind of sounds like some shit Russia would do. 😒

😖
Yes, it’s us. We did this. WE’RE THE NEW RUSSIA!
Lol. We aren’t the new Russia. We’re just continuing to be the same war crime committing monsters we’ve been for centuries.
