hree Iranian protesters were shot dead by the Revolutionary Guards at a Saturday night demonstration in central Iran, the Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya network reported, citing local reports.

There was no immediate confirmation of the incident, which reportedly took place in Doroud, in the Loerstan province.

Iranian social media accounts posted videos of demonstrators tearing down regime billboards featuring Khamenei’s photo.

The ayatollah sent the religious police door to door to confiscate firearms after the Iranian revolution of 1979.

2018 should be a very interesting year at home and abroad.

It took ten days from the beginning of the Romanian protests in December 1989 until the government had been overthrown and the Ceaușescus had been executed. May a new Iranian revolution occur just as fast.

To the people of Iran: Use a rock to get a knife, use a knife to get a gun, use a gun to get more guns and put these mullahs where they belong - in the ground.

I hope we can help these folks

Was only a question of time before the shooting would start. Populace largely unarmed. But that could change...

[mylife]

Nothing will change till they start shooting back.

The “unwashed masses” in Iran don’t want to be nuked because of the stupid-azz wierd beard mullahs that are in charge.
To the “unwashed” Iranians: once you get em.....kill em ALL.

At least we're not helping the regime any more... at least Trump doesn't want to. Of course there are probably still many in the State Dept., CIA, NSA, etc. who actively working on behalf on the regime... but in a couple of years we should be able to end all that.

soros deep state paid off mobs - no different than our own AntiFa losers

Unless the military backs the people this exercise is doomed to destruction like the Tiananeman Square protests in China.

This is the Arab Winter that Obama suppressed. Leftists are such evil maniacs.

[OKSooner]

Let us pray for a momentous end of the old year, vis a vis Iran and the mullahs.

Countdown until media blames Trump...

[depressed in 06]

What the Iranians need is jOkeass to come straighten things out. If the Revolutionary Guard shoots him or the people string him upside down with piano wire, it all works for me.

[granada]

Highly likely these folks have no difference with Iran regime on anti-America & anti-Israel.

So Trump wants regime change. The Democrat reply: “While we certainly support the right of the people to engage in peaceful dialogue with their government, one must remember that Trump is a Fascist and his involvement can only lead to more violence...just like in his campaign.

Prayers for the young protesters...

Hope those who “Protest” here in the U.S. read about this, perhaps they will think twice......”Nah, they don’t
“
“think”, they just do.
