So, the economy is crashing and people are in the streets: screaming at the government. The response: kill them.
This opposition is the result of the militarization of a country, of a society, of a culture by religious fanatics. These fanatics won't answer to the citizenry: these theocrats only respond to an imaginary world they hold in their peanut brains. Sadly, more deaths will follow before the theocrats are thrown out. Will Reza Pahlavi come back to lead the country back in to the world of nations?
That remains to be seen. But these protests will not stop. The more killings, the more protests. It seems rulers in this vein seldom respond positively. They are not humanists; they are not real leaders, only theocrats, the worst of the worst. History is littered with the skeletons of theocrats no matter where you look.
I have sympathy for the Iranians, up to a point. Then, that sympathy goes away when they agree with the Kahmeneis who hate mankind in general. They wish to depart this earth soon and join Mohammed somewhere else. How nice.
