[Saddam Hussein]

I blame the West for fuking up the middle east, it's true too.

Hard to say exactly what is going on since the internet in Iran is down.

Reports vary from a few killed to a few dozens killed.

UN 'alarmed' dozens may be dead in Iran protests

The rioters are shooting at the protesters and security personnel. So far the security personnel have order not to open fire.

Again , i do not know how accurate are the reports coming out , as it is hard to tell , since the internet in Iran is mostly down.

But this report just came out :

Iran: More than 100 protesters believed to be killed as top officials give green light to crush protests

Verified video footage, eyewitness testimony from people on the ground and information gathered from human rights activists outside Iran reveal a harrowing pattern of unlawful killings by Iranian security forces, which have used excessive and lethal force to crush largely peaceful protests in more than 100 cities across Iran sparked by a hike in fuel prices on 15 November, said Amnesty International today.

At least 106 protesters in 21 cities have been killed, according to credible reports received by Amnesty International. The organization believes that the real death toll may be much higher, with some reports suggesting as many as 200 have been killed. State media have reported only a handful of protester deaths, as well as the deaths of at least four members of the security forces.

Video footage shows security forces using firearms, water cannons and tear gas to disperse protests and beating demonstrators with batons. Images of bullet casings left on the ground afterwards, as well as the resulting high death toll, indicate that they used live ammunition.

Probably just Jew lies

Normal governments , that have nothing to hide , do not block the internet . Unless of course they do have something to hide.

I wonder what if someone here would sum up the Mullahs reports as " just more Muslim lies " . Would that be considered a reasonable response ?

Your stupid post reported.

They make a report on unlawful killings by security personell, based on "verified video footage" but do not show a single one of the so called videos. Its not the first time Amnesty have been serving as an American propaganda network.

Normal governments , that have nothing to hide , do not block the internet . Unless of course they do have something to hide.

They block the internet to stop hooligan ring leaders from organizing unlawful riots and spreading instructions about how and were to cause destruction next.

We will see in the upcoming days/weeks what will happen.

What happened??
Coming days?? It now the 3rd day nothing in Tehran or Shiraz or Yazd.


I be back I coming days so fools like you understand that with made up stories you can't do regime change

Khamenaistic regime had choice:

1) Give oil to poor people of Iran.
2) Give oil to Assad so he would slaughter poor people of Syria.

Guess what Khamenaistic regime chose to do?

These riots are because of stupid shah and khomeinist/khameneist policy of giving 100 billion dollars non-targeted energy subsidies a year to everyone. They followed exactly your suggestion to destroy Iran.

Communist socialist animals, this is why they leave electricity and water running thinking god is sending fresh water without limit. Public sector work often encourages laziness due to the way its structured, maybe not for every organization but when the far majority of a country are public-sector employees then things are usually bad.

Did they think they wouldn't taste their own medicine?

I'm not against state support for certain sectors and people, but before doing that, it needs calculation, statistics and collection of information. Then the money will be given to those sectors and people that are really in need of support.
Now in Iran, rich families with 3 cars drive around in their expensive cars using state financed fuel! Plus smugglers export Iranian fuel to neighbouring countries and in this way subsidies and taxes paid by sanctioned Iran and working class end up in other countries, benefiting them and the smugglers. This is happening for 50-60 years, costing Iran 3-4 billion dollars a year only on smuggling. 200-250 billion dollars given for free to neighbouring countries by Iranian tax payers and state.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Let me tell you the main difference currently between you and @yavar regarding Iran - In theory/on paper you are correct, but in reality/operationally, Yavar is correct. If majority of Iranians TRULY want the sort of freedom and "democracy" you advocate, then so be it, i support it. I only agree with/not challenge Iranian leaders because i feel that most Iranians support them naturally. If Iranians really want SL + IRGC out, then so be it, because its what they want, but i think as for today, if its time to bet money, if you dont bet today on IR system and govt, you are likely to lose your money. This MIGHT be the one time you make your money, but statistics says you will lose in the long run.

The average Jew in Israel lives better than the average Iranian.

and thats your problem bro! Your standards is Western "standard of living", and i also like that, but you cant say conclusively that majority of Iranians will give up other interests FOR those Western consumerism and lifestyle.

Most countries dont want western "standard of living"- they just want western education and products.

They block the internet to stop hooligan ring leaders from organizing unlawful riots and spreading instructions about how and were to cause destruction next.

You can also remind this guy that his country's ally - India, recently blocked internet in Kashmir for months! Information today is part of warfare. Afterall, the protestors who are being supported by foreign govts/groups are probably using the internet to communicate with their handlers.

Just say you want to raise prices to invest in the green environment policies, greta thurnberg will applaud Khamenei.

Instead properly answering my post all you can do is blabbering nonsense. BTW, Jews are not supposed to be smart.

That is the only response creatures like you deserve!

Thank you the Iranian government for being an independent Iranian government free of foreign influence and western feminist/LGBTQ+++ cultural POISON

Thank you to the Iranian government for being the first independent government since Qajar times who puts the interests of the Iranian nation ahead of any foreign governments interests.

Thank you to the Iranian government for shielding Iranian culture, heritage and way of life from the cultural poison of western debauchery.

Thank you to the Iranian government for creating one of the safest countries on earth, in the middle of the most dangerous neighbourhood on earth. all the while fighting off foreign parasites and imperliasist who do everything in their power to try and starve and destroy Iran into submission.

Western culture, society and way of life is being destroyed by a poisonous Zionist imposed feminist/LGBTQ++ culture. some people really want that for Iran?? western ideology today tells you there is no such thing as a man or woman. gender is a social construct, and men and women fit in a "spectrum". "transformers" as putin mockingly called them. Do people really want this mental retardation to take over Iran as well? where the freaks take over society?

if protesters have greivances take them out on the foreign imperialists and their Zionist masters for the economic embargo they put on the Iranian nation. that's where your anger should be directed.

if you are attacking security forces. You are a pawn in enemy hands, and an enemy of the Iranian people/nation. The Iranian government has a duty and obligation to absolutely anahilate such traitors.
