We should have been covertly aiding the Green movement dissidents in 2009.

Uh ... I'm pretty sure we were. Either the CIA, Israel, or some other Western entity.

I was initially supporting “the Green Movement” back in 2009. Then saw the ‘reformists’ within the Islamic Regime were actively hijacking the so-called Movement to reform something that cannot be ‘reformed’. I stopped supporting, and said (on FR too) that those outside the Reformists grp should stop too.

The Islamic Reformists were against any Secular non-Islamic group; they were even against traditional pre-Khomeini flags of Iran, and whoever carried those flags in public protests. These Islamic reformists were & still are very much part of the Islamic Regime; they just want more freedom.

In sum, whoever was aiding the Green movement did an extremely bad job of it. They only contributed to jigging up a lot of gullible & innocent people, who ended up either killed and or tortured.
