The Irish Ram, Coyote, et al,
Our friend "Coyote," is quite right to asked for the context in which the photo is being framed and used (your intent). The top photo is, of course, from the BPR (BizPac Review) Article "
Palestinians burn American flag, chant ‘Allahu Akbar’ to welcome Obama" (March 21, 2013 |
Michael Dorstewitz); with the Photo Credit to Iranian Press TV (
www.presstv.ir) from the archive. I have no reason to believe that the flag is genuine.
The bottom photo also originates from an Iranian Press File (Copy of Image URL:
"http://www.gannett-cdn.com/-mm-/f51.../08/18/WTSP/WTSP/635755023745251498-irans.jpg.") ... However, the flag used is what we sometime called (in the old days) as PROP2 (a Psychological Propaganda device or object used on stage by actors during a performance) material. You will notice that the half dozen (or so) State Stars on the flag are actually Stars of David. The image can currently be found at IMAGE FILE, and has been used several time just recently. This type of flag has been used several times in the last decade and denotes an anti-Israeli/American Diplomatic Relationship.
However, both are associated with the PsyOp element of the Iran [as in the Revolutionary Guards Force-al Quds Force (IRGF-AQ)], the bottom one more so than the top one.
In otherwords you can't provide any source or context explaining what those photos are about.
You're trying to skirt the issue. Let's common core:
Google, "Palestinians burning American flags".
Google, "Iran burning American flags".
Then tell me which of the two want us dead more..........
(COMMENT)
The US is not appreciated in any respect by the majority in any culture of independent Arab States from the north-eastern part of Africa through to southwest Asia (
The Arab League). America can do no right as far as the people of Arab nations are concerned. I have to laugh, as there has been no more of a better example than that of the people of Yemen. Earlier this years:
Thousands protest against Houthi rule in Yemen after embassies close
SANAA | BY MOHAMMED GHOBARI World | Wed Feb 11, 2015
Yemenis in the capital Sanaa and the central city of Taiz held the largest protests yet against a takeover by a Shi'ite Muslim militia group on Wednesday after the United States, Britain and
France shut their embassies over security fears.
Hundreds massed in the capital against the Houthi fighters, who manned checkpoints and guarded government buildings they control. The militants, bedecked in tribal robes and automatic rifles, shot in the air and thrust daggers at the crowds opposing their rule.
Tens of thousands of people also carried banners and chanted anti-Houthi slogans in Taiz, which the militants have not taken.
The
Iranian-backed Houthi movement has called its seizure of power a revolution and says it wants to rid the country of corruption and economic peril -- though Yemen's rich Sunni Muslim Gulf Arab neighbors say it is a coup.

But again, look who is backing the Shi'ite Militia (Houthi) and furthering the Shia Insurgency in Yemen.
Iran is attempting to become
(and probably will become) the major military influence in the region unless the US funnels some serious support to the Saudi Arabian that will offset the Iranian success on the ground. But then, for the US to intervene, there will likely to be anti-American Protests on that issues; even though that would likely give the US some Arab credibility on the Arab-Israeli issues (and the Palestinians). None of the major Arab states want either of the inept leadership rivals in Palestine to inadvertently open the door to Iran (IRGC-AQ) or DAESH (ISIS/ISIL).
As long as the US holds a plastic leadership role in the Middle East/Persian Gulf Region, there will always be some Arab/Persian element protesting America.
Most Respectfully,
