i think that's the plot of Tenet (2020)

round pizza makes logistics inefficient

there were reports of NK combat engineers to be deployed in russian rear areas, Perun mentions this in last video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTXwmcIfY0Y

that flag was irl dropped by a drone

there were rumors of nk soldiers being sent to russia soon, but no solid proof yet

it's a few days old, probably not the most recent by now

might be relevant: i don't think these three were equals. first and third one are kitted out, but the second one (targeted) had no weapon, no backpack, and sneakers as shoes. russians consider some categories of soldiers as expendable, maybe he was from penal unit or something like that

The invention of campism and its consequences have been a disaster for sane leftist discourse (in western europe. somehow it's not a problem in countries like poland and baltics)

and by the way, i'm of opinion that it's one of several times in history when rabid mccarthyism of CIA came around to bite them in their ass later, because if shah's CIA handlers weren't laser-focused on destruction of Tudeh party, then Khomeini would have to compete with them for audience and islamic revolution might have never happened. but it's a talk for another day

hostile reminder that government != people of a given country

there is some opposition, not much, and you won't hear from them a lot because communications out of the country are tightly controlled and iranian security apparatus is on the more hostile end of scale, but there is something. iranian emigrants tend to be pretty liberal

Shah was a piece of shit, but i'm pretty sure lotrorc is about removal of prime minister Mossadegh from power. That definitely didn't make things better
