Hemad Nazari on X: “In the background, you can hear continuous automatic gunfire lasting several seconds. Then, right in the middle of it, someone shouts at the top of their lungs: “Death to Khamenei!”

” possibly as many as 20,000 people have been killed” throughout the country.

POTUS made a threat to intervene several days ago.

He should have waited until the Pentagon was ready, or the Pentagon should have moved faster.

Every one of the dead protestors were encouraged by the US.

I’m sure there’s a lot of behind the scenes stuff going on right now. But I can’t but help wonder if and when the US or Israel will intercede on behalf of the protestors.

Cruise missile or drone strikes on IRGC and Basij facilities and leaders.

The distribution of weapons to the protestors so they can fight back against the IRGC and Basij.

The longer this goes (IMHO), it seems like the current Iranian govt will eventually turn the tide in the favor.

Kill cops burn buildings expect to die.

If this happened in Minneapolis American cops would not be called “homicidal maniacs” certainly not on this forum.

Ever hear of punctuation?

That makes no sense whatsoever.

The communications blackout is certainly frustrating but to be expected; Iran is, after all, a police state. But it does appear that this has reached the all-in stage - the IRGC is fighting for its lives and the people know what will happen if they lose.

In no way should anyone EVER COMPARE the homicidal Iranian security forces to our law abiding police and federal agents.
That is so far off base , cmon man
