A former Iranian political prisoner proved once again this week that telling the truth to CNN employees and contributors causes them to react like screaming banshees.
On Thursday night, Kian Tajbakhsh was a guest on CNN’sNewsnightwhere he was invited to give his take on the attacks Iran during “Operation Epic Fury,” which was launched last Saturday.
Left-wing political commentator Ashley Allison quickly went on the attack, accusing the Trump Administration of lying about the reason for attacking Iran and flip-flopping.
But Tajbakhsh, who wasimprisonedafter the 2009 Green Revolution, calmly pointed out that Allison and others were missing the point. Trump never actually started any war with Iran.
The truth is Iran has been fighting the United States at some level ever since the fall of the Shah in 1979 and subsequent rise of the terror state that calls itself ‘the Islamic Republic of Iran.”
Tajbakhsh then shared a story: a little over two decades ago, he was in Iran working on very high-level projects when he was approached by a senior figure in the foreign ministry in Tehran.
As Tajbakhsh left, the man told him Iran was in a cold war with America, but a war regardless.
Upon hearing this message, the panel erupted into hysterics, yelling.
Former Iranian political prisoner Kian Tajbakhsh shuts down an entire CNN panel with a blunt reality check.
Abby Phillip and Ashley Allison were spiraling over whether the U.S. is actually at war with Iran.
