In 1978, the CIA-Mossad-backed Pahlavi regime resorted to physical violence and a series of massacres against the Iranian people. In 2026, cognitive warfare—misinformation, deepfakes, social media manipulation—has replaced physical force against the Iranian nation, aiming to polarize society.

A gathering takes place at the historic site where Imam Khomeini resided during his exile and from where he addressed the Iranian people during the Islamic Revolution.

The 1979 Islamic Revolution was a nationwide uprising against the dictatorial rule of US-backed Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
