Belarus cracks down on clapping protest

[soldierofdec]

LOL @ their stupid hats. 

[t0mme1981]

1.14. I would clap the President for his cap.

[dlseth2]

Al-Jazeera has some serious balls to show up in Minsk like this! Honest journalism where it is needed... Keep up the good work!

[dtcrooner1]

If I were being escorted to a bus I would have pepper sprayed at least one goon on the way, while my buddy was flattening the bus tires.

THE SECOND WORLD REVOLUTION BEGINS. EGYPT, LIBYA, SYRIA ... SUDAN ... IRAN… BELARUS?

[missa18421]

What did England do? Sentense people to 4 years in jail for posting something on the Internet..

[fightttttt]

@missa18421 lol good luck with that england and euro people hardly care about this thats why these always defend these regimes on the internet, the goverment cares and only america cares enough to take the blame for steping in

[LLH97921]

One thing's certain. Today's protesters didn't just fall from the sky. These protesters were raised, grown, fertilized, cultivated from the womb of society. So you can't arrest them unless you stop production. Now what do you think drives this production? Greed > born from a Godless string of nuts who think the growth is the problem. So who must be eradicated....the host of greedy numb nuts!

[AccessDenied55]

Lets invade them!

[Corvusdotensis]

Such idiots could be enjoying this beautiful party, look at those girls, they are really beautiful. But instead, they prefered to disturb the public order.

Btw, a shame on you, Al Jazeera, portraying Lukashenko as an authoritarian. I'm sure that in Belarus people have much more freedom than in your country, where women can't even show their arms, since they can be considered "wicked and promiscuous", if they do that.

[Wyldstylist]

@Corvusdotensis Haha in Quatar? In Quatar they will kill you for getting laid :D

[LeGend19OO]

@Corvusdotensis

dont talk about arab or muslim womens in this way

Be respectful and read about women in islam in GOOGLE

[PravoslavnaOhridska]

Is the belorus and russian language the same???

[stopul]

Brave people of Belarus... Have no fear! The Lukaschenko regime will get mad about your protest. They will beat you and they will arrest many more of you. But there is a human right for freedom of speech! Continue clapping and stay peaceful! Perhaps they will start shooting down the protests. But you will find other ways to organize your movement. Everyone I know here in Germany supports your idea! People in China are watching you, too! You have the power to free beautiful Belarus!

[OrphanPaper]

Don't clap ,,,,wave the national flage in protest

[perplx666]

Pretty soon, they won't have enough money to be able to pay the police and army. Then, the real fun begins.

[mgEmji]

BelaruSian, not BelaruSSian dammit!

[njlucifer]

Lukashenko is an anal fuck buddy for Castro and Chavez...

[eshah100]

@njlucifer Actually, he's also a die-hard homophobe.

[Corvusdotensis]

@eshah100

Lukashenko is not a homophobe, he has a girlfriend and I bet he does not care about what gays do in their bedrooms.

[sciflyer67]

Clapping........really?

[antiinflation]

@sciflyer67 Yes, people are facing charges just for clapping or even for keeping silence while being in the wrong place.

[moester101]

RT fails to report this

[antiinflation]

@moester101 These events have got lots of coverage in various russian TV channels and talk shows. Really, and every Belorussian knows that.

[DeSwiss]

Thugs.

[phooey108]

Is RT reporting this?

[UnitedEuropa]

@phooey108 Yes.

[fightttttt]

@phooey108 Rt is anti western propganda, showing people geting killed in the hundreds of videos on youtube by the goverment, does help there agenda.

[jpazizile]

Lukashenko is a fascist!

[travelingman1605]

the more people get involved the quicker the time will be ticking for the current authority

[iknewitalready]

Art of Revolution perfected by International Bankers.

[Hillsillverr]

Belarus = Zionist control

RT fails to mention that..

[jonahfox]

@Hillsillverr Everything is under Zionist control. Even the birds.

[gabthelazy]

@jonahfox And the bees...

Not the bees! AHHHHHHH Ahgarbulagabah my eyes! my eyes! AHHHHHHHH! AHHHHHHHhhhurgh!

[starrysky39]

Here, the authoritarian leadership falls brutally below disfavor in the eyes of any form of justice, compliments to the disregard of its own people or the tyranny of the guy with that fucked up hat. Crush Lukashenko with the clapping tirades and burn him in the fire of freedom from the ash of authority,

and the point still is that this is my country, and i dont want it this fucking way.

[WalterSolano]

police? they act like fcking animals, poor gov puppets

[PullTheTricker]

Hippie protestors aren't gonna change shit.

[antiinflation]

@PullTheTricker They already have done that.

[tojoconfused]

Now that's yer genuine, antique, Soviet regime. Bids on e-bay.

[DCFunBud]

Stalin would be proud! How are your death camps doing? You can't have a Stalinist regime without death camps.

[ixonixas]

Belarus is just a Russia puppet. So sad 

[arcadefire99]

what a Big Brother face has this lukashenko idiot

[UnclePutte]

How very Russian.

[Klaus1386]

Security guy: You dare clap in my country?! I keeeeel you!

[sevic333]

Alexander Lukashenko looks like such an IDIOT with his STUPID over sized authority hat......I hate the U.S & Isreal........but I hate Lukashenlo even more !!!!

[tradernorton05]

Fuck the world and humanity. I consider humans to be the most disgusting and destructive species on the planet, and I sincerely hope a giant asteroid smashes into earth wiping us all out.

We deserve it.

[watcherjohnny]

Well, now we know what the TSA does in their spare time...they moonlight in Belarus.

RESIST.

[Aboxatax]

hey fuckers...NO CLAPPING

[harris3693]

@m20310378 upp, you guys in the USA barely even talk about the people who want to do the same shit to the US!!!

[m20310378]

@harris3693 am not in the US!! I said that cuz RT is so conservative when it comes to negative russian news, or bad publicity which is normal for any news organization. And since Belarus is great ally of Russia (I assume) then practically they will spare them as well.

[JekaZMD]

@m20310378 Um... but they did, look here /watch?v=5P6xepEPVxg

[m20310378]

@JekaZMD my mistake!! they did cover it up.. am removing my comments now.

[mmedefarge]

Crazy-ass goons arresting people for applauding. Petty despot in over-sized hat makes a speech. Is this as crazy as it looks?

[harris3693]

@mmedefarge try to depsoe the USA and the same would happen!!!

[mmedefarge]

@harris3693 Trying to overthrow the gov't is one thing; standing around applauding is quite another. There were massive demonstrations against the war in Iraq during the Bush years but the gov't twisted arms at media outlets so that it was barely covered in the news. Basically, the gov't ignores peaceful protests & does exactly what it wants.

[mefilmmaking]

this is the saddest but funniest thing I've seen in a LONG time.

[usergently]

Dogs for the Elite scum.

[Hirnlego999]

Friggin fascists

[shravanbhat]

Thought this was an Onion story.

[mefilmmaking]

@shravanbhat me too. REDICulous.
