During the recent crises in Iran, the imposition of internet restrictions for nearly a month revealed an unexpected truth: the propaganda machinery of the Afghan government’s opposing factions was largely fed by Iranian territory and resources. The strict internet restrictions revealed how shaky and dependent these groups’ propaganda efforts are on external conditions, as their market of lies and propaganda has been exceptionally cold and tasteless over the past month.
The media propaganda of various opposing groups, which previously stirred up commotion thru funded pages on social media, are now controlled for a period due to internet restrictions and show that most of their cyber activists and members are based in Iran. These individuals have exploited the host country’s technological facilities to undermine the stability of their neighboring country, and if the internet restrictions imposed in that country are lifted again, the opponents will intensify their propaganda against Afghanistan.
Alongside Iran, France, another ally of the (Israel and the United States), has recently become a secure base and center of activities for the Resistance Front. Another important discussion is that it unveils their Zionism, as France also has the closest ties with Israel and the Jews; thus, naming streets (Ahmad Shah Massoud) in Paris, organizing meetings for them, and providing state facilities to the leaders of the front are not coincidental but rather a clear sign of a strategic connection between these groups and Israel’s allies.
Iran must have realized that France is the very country that openly work for the agenda of the United States and Israel in regional conflicts and has always shown hostility toward Iran and other Islamic countries. When opposition groups are allowed to operate in such a country and hold meetings in their government halls, it becomes clear that many members of these groups may also be involved in espionage activities in Iran. The Resistance and other so-called opposition groups serve the interests of those factions that protect Jewish interests in the region instead of Islamic and national values.
For such groups that falsely chant slogans of freedom and resistance, their close ties and extensive activities in the embrace of Paris and Israel’s close allies are the greatest political and moral shame that have branded them as mercenaries on the international stage. These groups are now only propagating against the Afghan people in Western capitals at the behest of those countries that have also brought the full alliance of the US and Israel against Iran.
The internet restrictions imposed by Iran not only exposed the propaganda hub of the Afghan government’s opposing groups but also showed everyone that these groups largely operate within Iran, possibly engaging in espionage activities within the country and causing destruction in Afghanistan from there. For Iran, expelling such malicious elements who are friends of France and the Jews on one hand and use Iranian territory for espionage on the other, is an essential and urgent step for regional stability and true Islamic unity, because these groups can pose a threat not only to Iran and Afghanistan but to the stability of the entire region.
