Obama, the left, and the MSM are all on the side of the Mullahs!?
WTF
Iran protests: Citizens told to avoid 'illegal gatherings' (BBC)
Wow! Great statement.
Our real shame is that Obama basically dumped the Iranian people in 2009 when they tried to rise up, and then sent the mullah 1.5 billion dollars (including Swiss francs, loaded on pallets into a plane) as a bribe.
Thats going to be hard to undo, but I think the massive inefficiency of an Islamic Communist dictatorship sort of like Albania is beginning to undo itself. Thank God Trump is supporting the process!
bammy sent billions of our money to the corrupt, violent, warmongering regime of iran, run by 7th century throwbacks to savagery.
Let's see how this plays out and how Trump responds.
This is nothing. Most Iranians support the government. The protests are about issues unrelated to international politics. The establishment media is hyping this up to build support for another war in the Middle East.
Why is an administration of savages respected by the balance of the civilized world leftists?
Simple admiration of the brutal, repressive administrative techniques to silence protest that socialists desire to bestow on their own sheeple.
Iran is a large country composed o many different ethinc peoples. FR’s has had a bunch of posts in these protests. Hope someone comes up with detailed analysis of whats going on there.Including perhaps a map of these locations indicating where they are taking place and what group lives there
Should go further than that and support the people’s desire to get rid of a brutal theocracy.
Leftards will stand against this, simply because Trump said it. Of course to the left, freedom is slavery.
Back then, Obama sided with the Islamist regime over the protesters.
There were protests when Obama was President but he did nothing. Somehow I think things will be different under President Trump. There is a new Sheriff in town.
