“But they won’t be able to indulge in the terrorism and warmongering of the current gang in power.”

And I would jump on that any day.

I think that the murders that were just perpetrated by the government’s thugs will make the people running away from the thug with batons on scooters that they have nothing to lose by working together to snatch the baton away and beat the hell out of the thug.

POUR INTO THE STREETS PEOPLE, NOW IS YOUR CHANCE TO GET RID OF Ahmadinejad

Ahmadinejad is only the public face of the real evil, which is the country's ruling mullahs. They're the ones who have repressed democratic reforms and the Iranian people's yearning for liberty.

This is the real fight.

I just came from an Iran blog who has thousands of hits per hour. In less than two minutes the site had over 40 new posters logging on. This guy reported there are now 3 Million people protesting in the streets of Tehran.

Expect the Supreme Leader and his little clones to clamp down violently before tomorrow. Blood will be running in the streets soon.

I haven’t been following this very closely. Has this, in any way, been blamed on the US yet?

I know an Iranian gentlemen who has lived here in the U.S. for years. Back in the mid 90’s we saw him right after he had been to visit his parents in Iran for several weeks.
Even then, he told us there was extreme unrest among the younger generation. He said they wanted change and wanted better relations with the U.S. They were also heavily infuenced by western ideas, culture, fashion, etc.

<>>>>...you could pop both of those trike-riders with a single shot.<<<

Just launch a sturdy stick or a pipe in those wire wheels....that will bring 'em down quick.

Besides, the Iranian protestors don't have guns.....they are a disarmed society. A good reminder why we never want to get that way!!

I chuckle a little when I see someone say "you wouldn't stand a chance against the government." Like hell we wouldn't.

You know, there are multiple reasons for this. I understand that a number of military personnel were polled about what they would do if ordered to fire on American civilians. Most said they would recognize it as an illegal order, and not do it.

I've heard comments about how impossible it would be to resist an F-16, but my thought is that it has to land somewhere, it needs fuel and maintenance, and the pilot needs to eat. When an F-16 is based outside the area of conflict it can be devastating, but it's another story when it requires local support.

As for your comment about "target practice", I've seen amateurs, who are simply very good with a handgun, double tap five targets in about a second. There may well be thousands of American civilians who are that good.

Right, so the millions in the streets right now are because the Iranian people are happy with Khameni and Ahmanutjob, to the tune of 60+%, and of course Khameni’s minions would never ever lie about the election results because he’s such a good guy!

Wake up.

“Another Tiananmen massacre is just around the corner.”

I’m thinking it’ll be more along the lines of what happened in Romania when Ceausescu was overthrown. It only took an relatively modest gathering of protesters against the arrest of a catholic priest in Timisoara to spark a nationwide protest numbering in the millions unequivocally demanding freedom. Tienanmen was a gathering confined within a small area, much easier for the Army to quell. It appears the Iranian protests have grown beyond the ability of the military to fully put them down.

Okay, you’ve completely confused me as to what you believe. In your first post you seemed to express skepticism that the Iranian people did NOT vote for Ahmanutjob 60+%.

My point is that millions of Iranian people are risking life and limb to make sure their votes count. They are bravely protesting peacefully and getting bullets in return. They think the election was full of fraud and Ahmanutjob did not win, and I (and many others) believe them, given what’s been happening all over the country for years with young people pushing toward modernization and democratization.

What’s *your* point? Do you have one?

I am only seeing ragheads against ragheads,bigots against bigots, and all that “mess” which is going hyped by the same libtard MSM who sold you the fake Messiah-Obama!

All those people never demonstrated against Ahmadinejab before,during 4 years, and never against the Mullahs...
All those “brave peacefull people” repeatedly shouted their hate against USA...
I believe that THEY ARE NOT PEACEFULL NEITHER MODERATES.
MOUSAVI the so-called “MODERATE”(by the libnut MSM)was a KHOMEINY’s minister...

In other words i think you,and others, should keep your head cold and try not to be fooled ...unless you want to be fooled and live in fantasyland like the new hyped Messiah-POTUS changing the world by hese own words....

The real question is for me,if the heads change in IRAN will they go on ,behind the stage, with their nuclear program and their support of islamo-terrorist groups?
