- Iran has made no secret of the immense importance it places on the US protests – as a way to export the Islamic revolution. They have been making it clear that the regime sees the protesters at US campuses as an Iranian fifth column in America to be used in the future....
- According to the analysts, "60 percent of Pro-Palestine campus protestors were not authentic online users...." -- XPOZ analyst, iranintel.com, August 2, 2024
- At UCLA, "Those who occupied encampments on the university's property disallowed Jews from passing through the quad unless they would disavow Israel and, by extension, their Jewish faith. UCLA's position had been that the encampments preventing Jewish students from accessing certain areas of campus were not its responsibility." – nationalreview.com, August 14 2024 according to National Review
- Intelligence chief Avril Haines was not particularly forthcoming about exactly where and how Iran is peddling its influence on US campuses. Haines's only suggestion was to warn Americans to be "more vigilant". How does one go about being "more vigilant" if he is not given a clue what to be vigilant about?
- Why are Haines and Kirby deliberately misleading the public about the nature of these protests which are anything but organic?
- The protests were clearly planned well in advance of October 7. One of the lead organizers of the campus protests, the Hamas-affiliated Students for Justice in Palestine had a toolkit ready for a "Day of Resistance" just days after the massacre. While Haines and Kirby claim that the protests are "organic" and "in good faith," Hamas, an Iranian proxy, had been organizing protests on US campuses.
- Other foreign powers are also involved in stirring up the pro-Hamas protests: China, is maneuvering by means of an organization named Code Pink....
- Significantly, the People's Forum was behind the three-day conference in Detroit, "People's Conference for Palestine." At the conference, the People's Forum's executive director Manolo De Los Santos -- to great applause -- called for the complete destruction of the United States....
- Answer Coalition, according to NGO Monitor, along with a multitude of pro-Hamas organizations, including CODEPINK, Palestinian Feminist Collective, Students for Justice in Palestine Chicago, American Muslims for Palestine Chicago, National Lawyers Guild -Task Force on the Americas/San Francisco Bay Area chapter, ANSWER Coalition – Chicago, Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, Jewish Voice for Peace Chicago, U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN), and National Students for Justice in Palestine are planning to "March on the DNC" on August 19-22, when the Democratic Party is scheduled to host its convention in Chicago.
- "Pro-Palestinian protesters are backed by a surprising source: Biden's biggest donors," Politico revealed in May. "The donors include some of the biggest names in Democratic circles: Soros, Rockefeller and Pritzker..."
- Finally, the Biden-Harris administration itself, and therefore taxpayer money, is funding the protests, through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)... a $50 million grant was awarded from the EPA through the Democrats' Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to 'Climate Justice Alliance,' a group that engages in pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic activities." -- US Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, May 21, 2024
- US officials shamefully use disinformation to confuse the American public.

The Iranian regime's significant role in the ongoing pro-Hamas protests in the US was finally acknowledged on July 9 by Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines.
"In recent weeks, Iranian government actors have sought to opportunistically take advantage of ongoing protests regarding the war in Gaza, using a playbook we've seen other actors use over the years. We have observed actors tied to Iran's government posing as activists online, seeking to encourage protests, and even providing financial support to protesters."
Haines made it sound as if the Iranian regime had been sitting on its hands until "recent weeks," but apparently Iranian government agents have been active all along in stoking the protests, including in Ivy League universities such as Harvard and Princeton.
According to Jason M. Brodsky, policy director of United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) and a non-resident scholar at the Middle East Institute's Iran Program:
