1. Victory rally, my ass. Wonder how many of those people are from the |
|
poor southern part of the city, and were bussed in by their local mosques after being ordered to turn up by their clerics?
It's not hard to ginn up a crowd like that. Ask Kermit Roosevelt. He did the same for the Shah.

9. Kermit's operatives gave everyone money....something like a buck each. |
|
He hired all the cab drivers to ferry them --the cabbies got something like five bucks up front, five bucks at the end of the day. The cabs ran from the south to the main square, and he got a crowd together that would have been the envy of Warner Brothers' Extra Casting in the heyday of the silver screen!
"They" say, though I haven't seen them, that there are some photos of the demonstrators cheering while waving their cash!

5. I believe Ahmadinejad's days are numbered based on how he responded - very flatly nervous in my eyes |
|
Let's see how it plays out - but tyranny is rarely given a free pass when a movement takes hold.

While CNN parrots U.S. foreign policy and advances it's interests and people get worked up about " fair elections " lol , when we had at least TWO questionable elections , Obama is spreading more war and occupations , killing more civilians in Afghanistan and Pakistan , DAILY and according to Hersh , is attacking Iran with special ops. ( which is another act of war ) and the U.S. public complicit in the occupation of Iraq , wants to pretend , THEY have a democracy , while under an OCCUPATION .
Stop the Drone Attacks , the occupations , THE KIDNAPPINGS aka renditions ,the funding and training of African nations (dictators )TO ATTACK IT'S NEIGHBORS , .....THEN , THEN , THEN open your orifice and whine about Iran's elections .
