Large stretches of the Iranian capital erupted in chaos and violence today as antigovernment protesters and security forces clashed on the 30th anniversary of the takeover of the U.S. Embassy by radical students.
Amateur videotape also purported to show small, boisterous demonstrations in the Caspian Sea city of Rasht, the southwestern city of Ahvaz and the eastern city of Mashhad.
For the first time in months, there were also credible reports and video footage of a sizable demonstration on the campus of the main university in the northwestern city of Tabriz, the capital of Iran’s ethnic Azeri region and historically a hotbed of political activity.

They can sense the SANCTIONS that are proposed to be imposed on Iran and are acting to KEEP AWAY THE SANCTIONS.
The Message of President Bush I was “Stand up Iraqis and we are behind you.” THEN CAME THE SANCTIONS TO CAJOLE THEM INTO RIOTING AND KILLING SADDAM HUSSEIN.
THE SANCTIONS, AS THEY ARE ALWAYS MEANT TO, ARE TO STARVE THE CIVILIAN POPULATION SO THAT THEY GET ANGRY AND ACT OUT OF DESPERATION AND GET VIOLENT AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT SO THAT THOSE WHO PUT THE SANCTIONS ON CAN LIKE THEM AND STOP THE SANCTIONS.

Sanctions are an act of war. They are the modern equivalent of surrounding a castle and starving the people out. Rarely do they ever get the globalists’ wildest wet dreams to come true – that is – for the people to rise up and conquer the nation for them. Rather it usually makes the besieged country look backwards, the government incompetent, and thus makes us feel much better about dropping bombs on them.
In reality, if Iran was left the hell alone, they would be living in first world standards – in many parts of Iran they already are in spite of the siege. They have subways, trains, buses, and beautiful cities just like any other nation – of course the sanctions make everything seem shitty, but that is purely the work of the Americans.
No the Iranian government isn’t a hall of heroes, but at least they aren’t waging wars across the globe and literally INJECTING their agenda into the world population.
Peace… – standing in solidarity with our Iranian brothers.

They are doing this in Thailand. Unfortunately for the Globalists, they are’t as smart or as powerful as they think. Their pet shill Thaksin Shinwatra has lost support and people won’t even take his money to join his staged protests anymore.
The globalists are human just like us. And if we unite, boycott these pieces of scum, and stand up – simply stand up against them, we outnumber them a million to one – literally.
Thai people don’t take shit from anyone, they are the only SE Asian country to avoid colonization by Europe and they have weathered several attempts by the globalists to strip their nationalism from them and integrate them into the coming EAC (East Asian Community read Asian Union).
The Iranians are going to hang in there, they’ve weathered worse before. So will Thailand. The clock is running out for the globalists – they are starting to panic. Now more than ever people need to get up, and help drive the stake through their heart and end this once and for all.

listen.. if you don’t know anything about Iran then don’t talk.. We Iranians are not Arabs.. these Arab THUGS like Ahmadinejad and Khamenei are the Maffia of the middle East. They kill the people when they go out on the streets screaming for FREEDOM! something that they had 30 years ago and now they are getting killed by the goverment and terrorist police forces and Basiji’s.. THE PEOPLE OF IRAN WANT A FREE IRAN.. RELIGION SEPERATED FROM POLITICS.
anyway.. in June this year there were millions outside on the streets but they got killed and beaten and put into prison and got raped in jail.. just because the Maffia Regime don’t want to fall, so they kill people.. so yes, there are less people than in June but they have progression!
NO SANCTIONS AND NO WAR.. CUZ THE PEOPLE WILL FEEL THE SANCTIONS.. NOT THE REGIME!

WHat the hell are you talking about retart
Was it not the U.S. who supported Iraq in war against Iran years ago ? Where over 1 million iranians died defending their land ?
Or did you forget that ?
Did you forget about the Palestinians ?
Dont you know there is a criminal regime behind the curtains wanting to bomb your country and cause riots by causing unrest.
Most of the Iranians are happy, its just dumb uninformed Iranians who think there will be peace if Ahmedinijad was not in office, let me tell you he is a real man who stands for what is right and doesnt cower down. I do not like that some of the soldiers have killed some citizens, but when you read the reports the official documents there have been many soldiers that have died as well.

CIA and Soros run the Green Revolution, just like all the “color revolutions.” The Western media focused more today on small anti-Ahmadinejad protests than it did on the much larger pro-Ahmadinejad and anti-U.S. protests. All objective evidence seems to show that Ahmadinejad is reasonably but not overwhelmingly popular in his country, that Mousavi is not widely popular beyond very limited demographic groups, and that the U.S. remains extremely despised by the vast majority of Iran’s population. Long Live Free and Sovereign Iran and Death to the New World Order!!

Yes, I think its interesting that it would take place on the 30th anniversary of the takeover of the U.S. Embassy. Why organize the protesters around such a pro-U.S. issue? This reminds me a little of one situation I read about during the protests in July after one of Ayatollah Rafsanjani’s sermons (one of Mousavi’s biggest supporters) when people in the crowd ‘just happened’ to start chanting “Death to China! Death to Russia!” to counter the usual chants of “Death to America”. If you watch videos of this event you can see that at first it’s only a few people among the crowd chanting “Death to China! Death to Russia!” and working everyone else up. Looked like a total CIA psy-op in my opinion.

Tip-of-the-day: an Anti-Semite is not someone who hates Jews, it’s someone the Jews hate!
Factoid: the use of sodium fluoride was pioneered by Russian Communist Jews for the purposes of population control. Joseph Stalin (a crypto Jew) used fluoride poisoning to pacify the prison populations of his Gulag system, which, in turn, allowed him to reduce the overall number of guards in the Gulags by 30%!

This so called ” green movement” is a product of Anglo-American intelligence communities to un-unite Iranians and unstablize Iran furthermore in preparation of inevitable attack in Iran by U.S and Israel forces. Goal? , when Iranians are busy fighting themselves, they wont mind an attack by U.S and as matter of fact,may even welcome it!. They did the same ” color ” movement in Eastern europe and is getting too repetitious!. Anglo-American Intelligence , took down shah and brought Khomeini to power as part of de-stablizing scheme in the region with full knowledge that Russia was going to attack Afghanestan in advance and that is why they created Taliban and Alqueda as their proxy. Now, for my friend who commented on Thailand ; I live in Thailand and I have been following Thai politics for a long time. Thaksin was removed by Army with help and full approval of Anglo-American intelligence . Why?, because Thaksin was shifting from globalists to China and was about to make many hefty and proftiable deals with China and that didn’t sit well with globalists! and he wouldnt give much power nor Authority to Army, that is why they brought a British born Apisek as a prime minister who is nothing but a kiss ass to the globalists. Since Apisek has taken over, crime and un-employment has risen sharply. People are in contrary to what you said , very dis-mayed with his policy and as matter of fact , Thaksin has more supporter now than when he was removed!!. Bear in mind that Thaksin was accused of many corruption but was never found guilty of any of them by court except for that dodgy shady land corruption charge on Ratchda pisek road which mainly his wife was involved. Come to Thailand and see for your self that Thailand in fact is a Military state but in civil uniform.LONG LIVE ALEX JONES FOR WAKING UP PEOPLE. GOD BLESS YOU ALEX!
