On Saturday, protesters with Iran's MEK Freedom Movement took to the streets in Tehran to protest after Iran's government admitted having shot down a Ukrainian plane by mistake, killing 176 people on board. Iran's government claimed that the U.S. airstrike killing Quds Force leader Qasem Soleimani had united the country, but the protests disproved that narrative.
"Protests erupt against the Revolutionary Guards at Amir-Kabir University in Tehran due to authorities' incompetence and negligence after the recent plane crash that killed more than 176 people," Iranian journalist Masih Alinejad reported on Twitter. "Some people had claimed Iranians were united after [Soleimani]'s death. Think again."
"'IRGC, shame on you. Let go of our country' - chants at [Iran protests] today in Tehran's Amirkabir University after the Revolutionary Guards admit to shooting down a [Ukrainian plane]," M. Hanif Jazayeri, an Iranian journalist based in Britain, tweeted. He summarized remarks from National Council of Resistance of Iran leader Maryam Rajavi, who called the plane crash "a great crime that Iran's people will neither forgive nor forget."

I’m sure John Kerry can smooth this out for the mullahs and shut those people up.
Sorry way to treat a cult hero. /s
Can’t wait to hear the Democrats condemn these Iranian people seeking freedom!
Once again these miserable Leftists will be on the wrong side of history!
#winning so much #winning
Kerry is shocked, shocked I tell you, by the Persian people’s ingratitude!
After all he’s done for them.
Hey, John, don’t worry. Tell Trump to just wait out the current regime.
Easy. They will call them Fascists.
Will the American Democrat Party come out and condemn these protests?
And Islamophobes.
The unrest continues. Iran has some serious internal problems.
It’s sad that that’s all those people know. “Death to this”. “Death to that”. “Death to my own children for honor”.
The lame stream media made a big deal about the massive out-pouring of grief and respect for Soleimani. They collectively compared him to MLK and JFK. Good grief!!!!
Rush pointed out that the Iranian people were required by threat to participate the mass display.
How can they even credibly cover anything Iran now???
Despisers of gentle poetry!
Iran shouting death to its leader.
Democrats doing the same.
Who are they? I know for a fact that the the whole country is mourning Salamee. The msm told me so.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Death to America
I think I shall never see
Anything as beaufiful as a
Death to America
On the shores of Gitchygumee
In the land of sky blue waters
Death to America
Touching, no?
Hope they don’t find our stolen cash they all think
bttt
Easy. They will call them Fascists.
Or "White Iranians."
