VIA - THE BLAZE

The #BlackLivesMatter Campaign Just Got an Unlikely Supporter
Dec. 30, 2014 7:00am Sharona Schwartz

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is using the controversy in Ferguson to blast the U.S. on issues ranging from “crimes” against Iran to the historical oppression of Native Americans and colonialism, using the hashtags #BlackLivesMatter and #NativeLivesMatter.

In a series of tweets over the past few days, Khamenei invoked the 1890 Wounded Knee massacre in which at least 150 Native Americans were killed by U.S. troops in order to make his point that Western culture is “aggressive.”
