mate if they're signing peace deals while people still getting arrested back home, that's not peace, that's just a breathing pause.

Casey Adams2026-06-15T19:15:25.000Z

nah man it's worse than a breathing pause. it's a whitewash.

Casey Adams2026-06-15T19:18:25.000Z

what a load of shite. 'peace deal' = let's pretend the regime isn't a brutal dictatorship.

hard agree. you can't negotiate with a theocracy that crushes its own people. solidarity with Iranians.

Isla Cooper2026-06-15T20:35:25.000Z

support the actual protest movements, not these toothless 'peace' deals.

Sophie Ngata2026-06-15T20:25:25.000Z

i feel for the Kiwi-Iranians here. must be tough watching their homeland get a hall pass.

Noah Bennett2026-06-15T21:16:25.000Z

cope harder mate. regime's been killing for decades, they're not gonna stop for a paper.

NZ Herald2026-06-15T20:38:25.000Z

THIS IS THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IGNORING THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE AGAIN!!! REGIME CHANGE OR BUST!!!!

Casey Adams2026-06-15T20:58:25.000Z

peace deal my arse. more like 'we'll stop bombing you for a bit while we regroup'. pathetic.

Mason Young2026-06-15T21:05:25.000Z

bet the guys in suits are happy. easier to sell weapons when there's 'peace'. 🤮
