Summary: the Iranian government has intensely used lethal force on protesters. In Tehran alone, several hundred people have been killed. In the whole country - most likely several times more.

    It’s not weird at all that the opposition in London is literally flying Israeli flags, not weird at all.

    It’s not weird at all that “protestors” are burning mosques instead of attacking government infrastructure.

    It’s not weird at all that a west aligned self declared shah (the son of the last shah removed in a revolution) in exile is being pushed into the narrative as a nation character.

    No no no, it’s a revolution against an oppressive regime because they want FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY. Let’s spend 20 years of American tax prayers’ money to destroy and pillage Iran and secure Israel’s expansionist interests give them democracy by returning the exiled royal to power.

      Hmm so are you saying that everyone protesting in Iran is doing so because the cia tricked them into doing it? Could it be at all because people there want change? Not being a dick here btw, looking to have a real discussion

        No, I’m not saying they aren’t protesting. I am saying the Israeli aligned thugs burning mosques and getting attacked by authorities in return are not protestors, and while the people of Iran could launch another revolution, they wouldn’t launch it to install an American/Israeli puppet monarch, and they certainly don’t want your military intervention.

          Ahh ok, so, so far only people getting shot at, from what you are saying are people who are aligned with Israel and are destroying mosques? Unfortunate that the internet has been shut down, its making it hard to get a clearer picture.

          they wouldn’t launch it to install an American/Israeli puppet monarch,

          E: I copied the wrong part. I meant to say I wouldn’t blame Iranian people from wanting a revolution.

          I wouldn’t blame them.

          certainly don’t want your military intervention.

          I would hope my country wouldn’t intervene, but its possible the Americans would.

            I wouldn’t blame them.

            You wouldn’t blame them? For backing the son of MI6/CIA installed puppet for western oil interests?

            You must be thrilled with what’s going on in Venezuela!

              Very sorry I copied the wrong part, I meant to say I wouldn’t blame them ( the Iranian people) if they wanted to start a revolution, im sorry I wasn’t clear.

              You must be thrilled with what’s going on in Venezuela!

              Look im genuinely asking questions to try and understand what is happening, I am obviously not ok with what is happening in Venezuela. The sarcasm wasn’t needed.
