On last night's "This Week" Michael Portillo said that someone has been bombing Iran quite a bit recently and that this might have some bearing on the protests outside UK embassies. Has this bombing been reported in the news? Is the propaganda machine operating to such an extent that we don't get to hear anything resembling the truth (rather than the usual half truths, Blair era excepted)?

Here's something about it:
The war against Iran's nuclear program has already arrived - Haaretz Daily Newspaper | Israel NewsThe war is under way, though no one declared it and no one will confirm it. This is the secret war against Iran's nuclear project. It did not start this week or last month. It has been under way for years, but only faint echoes have reached the public. -
So why don't we get to hear this side of the story? I was under the impression that the media were reporting embassy protests as being related to UK sanctions. Or maybe we have, I've not seen the news for a bit.The Iranians, and international media outlets, believe these operations are the work of Israel's Mossad and possibly also a Western partner such as the CIA or Britain's MI6.Comment
