With the announcements by the Islamic Regime of impending gasoline (petrol) rationing, the last few days have seen long lines of upset citizens at gas stations throughout Iran. As supplies dwindled, tempers flared till this evening/tonight upset crowds set fire to some 50 gas stations in Tehran and tens of thousands of protesters marched from the eastern part of Tehran called Tehran Pars to Imam Hossein street.

"The vast majority of the Iranian people are YOUNG...born after the mullahs took power."

That would make them completely brainwashed and fervorishly nationalistic.

You missed the other nugget (negative one). Latest version Russian Mig fighter jets have been arriving in Iran.

I hope you don't play the market; living on the sidewalk is tough.

I think they will take out their own trash. I just hope they know that’s the way it’s going to be. I hate when our politicians make promises they don’t keep, and people drop like flies because they believed them.

The mullahs days are numbered. May they get strung up on lamp posts.

We’ve heard this before. No amount of “unrest” will unseat the mullahs.

I keep thinking we should air drop 10 million handguns with a hundred rounds of ammo with each handgun on Iran and let the younger generation take out the trash.

Not necessarily. It might make them hungry for freedom.

Just imagine the problems Iran will have when we destroy their one and only refinery.

You could be right, but, respectfully, let me remind you that the same thing was once said about Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union.

Perhaps the spark igniting the real fuse. Wouldn’t it be nice to see all those Mullahs and Amanutjob suddenly facing a firing squad...

I’m sort of curious about why there is not enough refinery capacity in Iran. We have eco-nuts running around here trying to stop new ones from being built, but I cannot imagine that is the case over there. Surely the Russians would have built them a few after the collapse of the Soviet Union, just for the hard currency.

We’ve all pretty much written off the people of Iran, but wouldn’t it be a great statement if they could dump these bums?

“upset crowds set fire to some 50 gas stations in Tehran “

Just doing what muzzies do best I suppose.

good point. I bet our guys have already “signed” the munitions that will be used from those carriers over there. (”refine this bitch” comes to mind)

Serious unrest in Iran, good. In Washington would be better.
