Thanks for reminding me. What are Basiji?
I’ve been wondering since yesterday...
To: sissyjane; SE Mom
The Basij (literally "Mobilization") — also Bassij or Baseej, or Persian: بسيج; also Baseej-e Mostaz'afin, (literally "Mobilization of the Oppressed);" and officially Nirouye Moqavemate Basij ("Basij Resistance Force")[1] Persian: نیروی مقاومت بسیج — is the largest student union in Iran and a volunteer-based Iranian paramilitary force founded by the order of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini on November 1979. The Basij are subordinate to, and receive their orders from, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.

Are they willing to kill as many of their countrymen as it takes? If they are convinced that those protesting are protesting against Allah instead of the government, they might be more than happy to hunt everyone of the protesters down and kill them. Automatic weapons, when used properly can be an incredible crowd deterrent...

Maybe they remember how the Shah fell and think that was a weak link for him.

I’m betting Berlin Wall, not Tianenmen.
We’ll see in a week who is right. I hope for the sake of Iran’s people, and the world, that I am.

At which point, the streets will fill again with Iranian patriots.
Why are so many FReepers so dismissive about this? Don’t y’all know that this is the culmination of years of underground rebellion and resentment at the regime? Not to mention years of internet and information outside of government control?

A Canadian journalist was mistakenly arrested for being a protester and badly mistreated before his release. They are not allowed to take photos right now but many are using their cell phones to take pictures and video.

IMO Same thing will eventually happen in China.
I’m just wondering if somewhere there are gun and other material hidden to help them fight back when they are attacked.
