Amateur footage shot in Tehran shows protesters cornering members of the Basij militia and taunting them.

They can also be heard telling the militia to chant and denounce the Supreme Leader before they let them go.

Hatred of the current regime in Iran doesn’t neccessarily go hand in hand with having warm feelings for the US or the West...

Which is why all the protest signs are in Arabic, no wait Moronsky, I misspoke-—apparently they are in ENGLISH.

I don’t see the need for the rudeness. Had a bad christmas or something?

It still doesn’t prove anything. They want worldwide attention, but it doesn’t mean they will love the west.

Oh, BTW, Iranians mostly speak farsi, not arabic...

MANY times in MANY places during any type of protest, the protesters want to make sure that monolingual Westerners understand what they are protesting about, and so they make numerous signs in ENGLISH, hoping that CNN and other Western reporters will pay particular attention to those signs.

This has been going on for MANY decades.

I presume there are many signs in FARSI, which is the language of the Persians/Iranians.

These protesters are very brave. I wonder if we will be so brave if or when the time calls?

Who cares. I saw a video where they were chanting, “No Gaza, No Lebanon, I only give my life for Iran!”

Bravery plus bullets equals a quick overthrow. This would have been over in June (probably sooner) if the Iranians had guns.

Bingo. Let's remember that no matter which side here comes out on top, muzzies will still be running Iran.

Sometime see if your library has a book called, AMERICAN MANIA.

Very interesting, author explains that most immigrants to America have an "explorer gene" and that therefore traits common to them, such as "American ingenuity" are GENETICALLY PREDETERMINED.

Many many many many Americans descend from Revolutionary Soldiers and other fighters for liberty & freedom in the meantime, that I have NO doubt that bravery will manifest itself in most Americans. We "can't" help it, LOL

Meanwhile on the free republic, astute readers will notice I never said they spoke or wrote Arabic, and it is still grammatically incorrect to capitolize the word following a comma, Moronsky being the exception to that rule.

Thanks hennie pennie. Making martyrs is blowing up in the faces of the mullahcracy.

For the umpteenth time, I look forward to the day when I can buy a copy of the videos of the mullahs’ beheadings in Iran.
