And you'd think that as an Iranian, too, because he lived in Iran for a long time, he would have some kind of concern about Israel bombing his country, but apparently not.
which is weird because a lot within Iranian society, obviously there's a split.
You have the more religious minded and then the more reform minded, secular minded.
But since the war, like since Israel was bombing and hundreds of Iranians died, it kind of was a force of bringing people together.
Like even the people on different sides of the aisle were coming, okay, you're religious, I'm not, but we need to stand together for Iran because this is crazy.
Like Israel is offensively attacking us
and causing all this, attacking civilian areas, and it's causing all this damage.
But for someone like PBD, who claims that he's proud of Iran, like he really, he's proud of the Shah of Iran, like before 1979, the Shah Reza Pahlavi was in charge and he got deposed.
So
He has all this kind of nationalistic sentiment.
But how deep is your nationalism if you're fine with a foreign country coming and bombing and you're still going to like glaze them and you're going to bring them.
So it's really disgraceful.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
It's actually quite revealing.
It's just like it's supposed to be an interview, but it's just like a puff piece.
Like you're just asking the easy softball questions and then not pushing back.
So that is propaganda.
I guess just pure propaganda.
