Abstract

This paper is written with the intention to critically examine the ways how the United States and Israel use media, fake news, “civil society activists” and terrorist organisations to wage its hybrid war against Iran and revolutionary Islam. The paper analyses the phenomena of the Mojaheden e-Halk (MEK), a cult-like Iranian terrorist organization which is hosted by Albania and has become an important tool of the US / Israeli war against Iran. The paper analyses US and Israeli use of fear tactics, diplomacy and terrorism from the Balkans to Southeast Asia to achieve their aims against the Palestinian question and its Iranian sponsors. The article explains Iran’s support for the Palestinian cause; United States and Israel’s response to the Iranian threat and the hybrid warfare which is waged against Iran and revolutionary Islam across continents by terrorist groups like the Mojaheden e-Halk and Israeli Mossad. It analyses the Balkan and Southeast Asian theatre of the hybrid warfare and reveals the interconnection that exists between the Palestinian issue and the isolation of Iran for the US / Israeli policy makers.
