Spoke to @jaketapper on the US plan to back ethnic insurgency in Iran



Kurds fail everywhere. They believe in the US and Israel who betray them more and more. This time it will be the same. Poor Kurds. Good people with total absence of the slightest capacity to think strategically. That explains very well why they have not the State until now.

The CIA is working to arm Kurdish forces with the aim of sparking a popular uprising in Iran, multiple people familiar with the plan told CNN. cnn.it/40FWoYD

The greatest countervailing force against the Islamic Republic is pluralistic Iranian nationalism. Reports that the US may fund or arm Kurdish factions inside Iran will alarm many Iranians—and undermine the regime’s opposition. My interview w/ @OutFrontCNN cnn.com/2026/03/03/pol…

The CNN report feels completely detached from reality. The premise of the CIA "arming" Iranian Kurdish groups ignores the fact that these factions— like PJAK and the KDPI — are already well-established militant organizations with their own significant arsenals. This raises a glaring question: if the existing groups are already armed, who is the intended recipient? Kurdish civilians? Furthermore, the "leak" itself is a massive red flag. An operation of this magnitude would require total OpSec; The idea that the CIA would hand this story to the press just days before a supposed uprising reeks of a setup. It doesn’t look like journalism; it looks like a tactic to put Kurdish "sleeper armed units" in the crosshairs. By broadcasting these claims, they trigger immediate, heavy-handed repressive measures from the regime. This puts the units under immense pressure, forcing them to either move prematurely or get crushed in the crackdown.
