Inside the US-Iran Shadow War for Control of the Middle East

Back in March we sent a crew, including VICE Founder Suroosh Alvi, to Iran. We wanted to do a story about a rash of assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists - most recently Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, head of the country’s nuclear program. We ended up getting unprecedented access, from Tehran to Baghdad, into the sprawling shadow war between the US and Iran for the heart of the Middle East.

    It's pro Iranian propaganda dude. Anything critical of Iran doesn't make it out of Iran. Im sorry for being the bearer of bad tidings, but a country that yells Death to other nations before breakfast, isn't going to have a nuclear weapon, not now, not ever. Give it up and the sanctions will disappear and prosperity will come. This was indeed an assassination, of someone making it possible for crazy people to kill millions of other people. No collateral damage, just the bomb maker and their henchmen. A good day for humanity no matter what this scientists race, religion or philosophy was. It'd be like handing a room of toddlers a box of razor blades and expecting them to be careful. Just to add, I'll bet the Saudis were hunky dory with this assassination.

There is a lot of areas where Iran and the US can cooperate , Iran is one of the biggest Muslim majority countries in the world while the US has one of the largest Muslim populations in North America , so there is a lot the countries have in common and they should deescalate .

From Wikipedia: On 8 January 2020, the Boeing 737-800 operating the route was shot down shortly after takeoff from Tehran Imam Khomeini International Airport by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). All 176 passengers and crew were killed. I bet they were distraught when they killed 176 innocent people....

    @aki hiko Not necessarily true. Iran's influence in Iraq runs deeper than you're led to believe. One can look at the incompetence the US army and the corruption of the Iraqi government. You can literally already see their people really do not like us, especially when we blew up the guy who was the most effective fighter against ISIS in Iraq. They have memorials for Soleimani everywhere in Iraq. Do they have any for Trump, or any US Army general?

    The naivety of you westerners are ridiculous and lamentable at the same time 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ Bad news is , it's the exact thing that dictaorial goverments ( in this case islamic regime ) - at times even so viciously - prey upon to abuse and take advantage of . Good news is , i guess there is a hope that with the help of internet this form of cluelessness will diminish if not outright eliminated . ( of courese the prerquisite for this is , islamic regime won't completely censor the internet , something which khamenei is so enthusiastic to do in the near future ; and if you don't know him either , he is the supreme leader and yes he is an avid fan of North Korea ofcourse ) Everyone who lives in islamic regime knows this is one of the most commen/preconstructed phrases that goverment officials say roboticllay when asked questions like this one in this occasion . And as you can see in the middle of this video the journalist guy ( after got out of islamic regime ) said there were SIX people from SIX intelligence agencies ( let that sink in ) who followed him evereywhere he went . Certainly that could help ( that guy ) to answer even more carefully . And please use the islamic regime instead of Iran as much as you can , they're not Iranians . They don't see themselves as Iranians they would tell it to you themselves ( at least it's not among the first things that with which they would have an affinity/sympathy ) , and people of Iran don't see them neither . Unlike the credulous interviewer like in this video who after went just to the predetermined locations with onlookers watching his every move and then made - in his view - an " unskewd " opinion about this place ; people in Iran know they're just shia ISIS vs the sunni one .

There is a lot of areas where Iran and the US can cooperate , Iran is one of the biggest Muslim majority countries in the world while the US has one of the largest Muslim populations in North America , so there is a lot the countries have in common and they should deescalate
