Iran's leadership is experiencing this right now.

Iran's numbers are either undercounted or under reported.

I’m no fan of what Trump did. But after a lot of sabre rattling and threats against the US, Iran holds a state funeral where innocent Iranians get crushed to death, launches a token missile strike, then incinerates a bunch of innocent Iranians by accident. How many own goals can you kick in one week?

Numbers out of Iran are not reliable.

Iran's death rate must also be seen in the light of its war with Iraq that started in 1988 and left much of the now 60+ people with poor lungs [0].

The people of Iran will suffer the most, unfortunately.

Iran is in a war with its own citizens and its own women especially.

Presumably you have some citation to back up "particularly low-quality death statistics" for the Iranians. I see no indication this is true, other than some people don't like the implications of what their death statistics say. It might be true, mind you: but citations needed.

We can conclude that Iran is severely underreporting cases.

Iran is ominously missing any cases according to this data. I guess you could say Iran is a known unknown.

Huh? Iran is involved in at least four armed conflicts at the moment.

If 1 death incited this small rebellion, I don't think the Iranian parliament would survive this event should they actually start such naziesque deathcamps. What a fucking mess.

For some reason, you didn't mention all of the terrorist activities Iran engages in. Or hundreds of US soldiers killed by Iran. Learning about them might reduce your level of bafflement.

It's interesting the cases in Iran are so high. Lots of movement between China and Iran I assume.
