Smash windows, tear down fence in protest against Tehran regime
STOCKHOLM - Angry demonstrators broke into the Iranian Embassy outside Stockholm on Friday, climbing in through shattered windows and injuring one embassy worker, police said.
More than 150 people had gathered outside the embassy to protest against the Iranian regime, when some of them attacked the building with rocks and tore down a fence to enter the embassy grounds, police spokesman Ulf Hoglund said.

Did they take hostages?
Will the Swedes take any hostages in the embassy and hold them for 444 days?

Smash windows, tear down fence in protest against Tehran regime...
That and a quarter will get you a phone call; Ahmad whatsisname isn’t going anywhere.
Sounds like something we ought to consider for pro cap & trade voters in congress.
...how does the medicine taste now Iran...they all need to be stormed and kicked out!
Swedes? These are Iranians storming an outpost of the regime.
On the face of it, looks like a very good symbolic protest.
The article clears it up that most of the protestors were Iranians living in Sweden; nothing else makes sense.
I hope this tactic spreads like wildfire, but it probably won’t , at least not like this one “caught fire”. It doesn’t really matter; large crowds could gather ANYWHERE AND EVERYWHERE Iran has an Embassy, and demand that it be shut down. What would the practical effect of this be?
To isolate this regime of 12th Century brutes and lunatics
further from the rest of the world, and symbolically strip it of its legitimacy. It’s a good thing.
You are obviously wrong in your characterization of who
the protestors are. ROP protestors as you described them would be HAPPY with the ‘results’ of the Iranian ‘election’.
Them rioting in Europe like Muslims always do will change nothing in Iran. They should show some respect to Sweden.
Iranian immigrants in the West haven't generally been a problem. Mostly, the Iranians who have left that country are the most secular, educated, modern and pro-West portion of Iran's population. They're not the type of people who generally engage in rioting or destruction. The largest groups of Iranian immigrants in the US, for example, came over when the Shah was overthrown and the crazies came to power.
DC and LA both have sizeable Iranian populations.
Many are socialists or communists, and hence oppose the Islamic Republic. Others are just generally westernized / swede-i-fied, but still care about events in Iran. Only a small share of Swedish Iranians are true ROP.
You never know. If Iranians are attacking the Iranian embassy, it means the people who emigrated are sick of Iran making life impossible for them.
I blame the Muzzy scum when they commit crimes in the nations they move to, but maybe, just maybe they want this regime to fail because they want to go home and want that fascist regime out so they can.
This is fantastic and it could be possible that once the Mullah filth are thrown out, a lot of them would go back to Iran.
Forget it, I’m rolling.
I agree, and that’s the implicit point I was trying to make that both JayNorth and Islaminaction took issue with, or
possibly misunderstood, just as you seem to have misunderstood mine.
I think peaceful but insistent demonstrations around the Iranian Embassies EVERYWHERE are in order.No need to trash the buildings.The Iranians in Sweden probably knew it would be unlikely they’d be shot, given the Swedish mindset. THAT, however, doesn’t negate the situation as it really is,
or the need to do something decisive, now, especially that Mousavi has asked his followers to retreat into a more peaceful posture.
I misunderstood but I don’t think that regime is going anywhere. Also I am much more concerned with what is going on here over what is happening in Iran. Obama is going 100 MPH in his effort to destroy us.
