Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf criticised the narrative around the ongoing Iran war. He suggested that fear-mongering and out-of-context comments are being used to fuel war profiteering. In a post on X, Ghalibaf wrote: "Out-of-context quotes + manufactured FOMO = War profiteering 101. Do Your Own Research." The war involving the US, Israel, and Iran began on February 28.
