Two Weeks of Protest in Iran, Where is "Free Palestine?"

[Churchill]

First the first time in 47 years, Iran is on the verge of toppling an oppressive regime that has crippled people's civil liberties and economy. Despite what may be a historic event of liberation, there has not been a peep from the "Free Palestine" crowd. There have no protests in support on the streets. Nobody blocking the streets waving Iranian flags. Nobody organizing sit-ins and demonstrations on university campuses, nothing from Greta.

The answer to this is, of course, obvious. The Free Palestine movement was never about Palestinians. It was never about liberation or freedom. It was always about hating the Jews.

First these are two distinct issues, Palestine and Iran.

Second there have been protests around the world and in the US expressing support for the Iranian protesters, so why do you claim there have been none?

The Israel protests are (or were until more or less outlawed) centered on a racial supremacist apartheid regime that persecutes, maims, tortures and kills those who are not Jews and have been doing this since the end of WW1.

Iran is not the same, part of the reason people are protesting there is desperation as their life savings have dwindled due to US sanctions over many years. This is how the West works, it topples power from within by creating poverty and chaos that eventually cripples a country.

What a load of horseshit.

Can you refute this claim with facts?

Or not.

What a load of horseshit.

It is.

The way l see it, Trump is clearing up the mess Carter made 47 years ago. Terror attacks, armed police at Christmas Markets; all that stuff as a result of his disaster. Years of weakness and appeasement, still going on, and will go on. The lessons of WW 2 not learned atall.
