The Spin
Anti-Iran narrative
The Islamic Republic's morality police have yet again victimized a young girl so as to enforce a mandatory dress code. While journalists reporting on their inhumane behavior will be imprisoned, the victim's family will be forced to air fabricated views. The Iranian authorities are using the very same playbook they applied to malign Amini.
Pro-Iran narrative
The West has again resorted to distorting the facts of a sad incident in a smear campaign against the Islamic Republic. Such malicious allegations can only prove that Western countries don't care about human rights, as they have no qualms using women as a political tool against independent nations.
