Dozens of members of Iran's religious Basij militia tried to attack Italy's embassy in Tehran on Tuesday, Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said.
About a hundred Basij dressed as civilians tried to assault the embassy shouting Death to Italy and Death to Berlusconi, Mr. Frattini said referring to Italy's prime minister.

Yes, they are the thugs of Iran
The Basij are mostly the rednecks of Iran, the uneducated and more Islamic oriented due to the lack of Western Influence, also it is filled with Syrians, Lebanese and PLO types to lead and teach terror tactics
The ones who just got out of prison types
“What other book promotes hate speech and mandates death to the infidel?”
I agree totally. But also I think we get manipulated by the left into having to define our argument as a moral one. We have to say they “hate speech” so they’re bad.
Their religion (and general cultural attitude) tells them to dominate everything that they can. We have to realize that America is a judeo-christian country. And keep it that way. Muslims are not compatible with America.
Self-preservation is a more powerful truth than abstract morality.
To the Iranian militias, all Western interests in Iran (particular those from U.S. allies) are game. That’s what the attack on the Italian Embassy shows, in my opinion.
At first glance, I thought it was a flashback article from 1979. Thank you Jimmy Carter for all this mess. How he allowed the most pro-western pro-Israeli country that formed an important part of our barrier to the USSR turn into the west’s worst enemy and begin the whole Hezzbo-Afghan-Pakistan nightmare should never ever be forgotten. Thanks Carter.
Think of them as ACORN with guns and a worse attitude.
If the Islamic regime goes down, they know they are in trouble.
“In trouble” alright, = The people will hang the members of the Basij in the streets for what they have done to the populace.
It's all spelled out in our owners manual.
Speaking of the descendants of Ishmael (nomadic Arabs).
Gen 16:12 - He will be a wild donkey of a man, his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand will be against him; and he will live to the east of all his brothers.
The only long term solution to Iran and the mullahs, is for the Iranian people to reject Islam entirely.
When Zero talks about a Civilian Security Force, the Basij is what he has in mind. These are the lovely people that sent their own handicapped people into the fields as human mine detectors during the Iraq/Iran War.
These are ethnic Persians who are in the employ of the Iranian government.
Actually, Iran has cultivated close relations with "Catholic" Europe. Besides, only about 30% of Italy practices the faith, and that 30% is disproportionately comprised of seasoned citizens.
shouting "Death to Italy" and "Death to Berlusconi,"another page from the book "How to Win No Friends but Intimidate Enemies". Thanks hennie pennie.
And the embassy was empty cause...
Imawhackajob has promised something big on Thursday.
Embassy hostage taking like the US Embassy in 1979????
I heard it was going to be a surprise gigantic pizza party to celebrate Jimmy Carter Day in all of iran
but italy blew it and couldnt deliver enough pizza pizza in time, so they are mad and going after israel now instead, because everything is israels fault, (according to iran)
It’s like they hate everyone.
Prime Minister Berlusconi recently mentioned he’d like to see Israel join the EU.

Right, to let Israel do all the fighting while they are publicly denounced and privately appreciated.
