Prime Minister Mark Carney argues the war against Iran was justified because it halted Tehran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons. The evidence, Ted Snider writes, suggests otherwise. Iran was not building a bomb, diplomacy had already achieved major concessions, and the war inflicted immense human, economic, and environmental costs.
First of all, the IRGC is not the government of Iran. The IRGC is Iran’s second army. It gets hyped up in Western media for propaganda purposes.
However, the IRGC does have construction companies tied to it that likely will get a lot of the reconstruction contracts. I don’t think that’s what you’re insinuating, though.
I might clarify that “selling out to capital” is not the same as getting money. Capital is the ruling class that wants to privatize the national wealth of all countries, and Iran is a major pain in their ass.
