Geopolitics | Iran Protests 2026

• 💰 Economic War: Rial at 1.4M per USD, inflation >50%, oil revenues cut to 16%.

• 🚨 Military Pressure: Post–“12-Day War,” dissent treated as existential threat.

• 👍 Kurdish Dimension: Real grievances in Kermanshah, Sanandaj, Mahabad—instrumentalized by Komala & PJAK.

• 📺 Media Narratives: Western framing hides cyber ops, assassinations, and blockade tactics.

�Bottom Line: The protests are a contested political space, where genuine suffering is weaponized to weaken Iran’s deterrence and regional ties.
