Shame on Britian and western. Shame on them

Fuck america

[ben5017]

I am sad to see my nation not working equitably with other nations to come to common ground ... The people of England and the USA have govts that don't respect them either.

In the USA I pay more taxes than I would in any SE Asian Nation ... land of the free? Too many regulations, victimless laws, and taxes ... our nation is under more control than it was under King George of England in the 1770's.

Why do the extreme wealthy not want the average people to have freedom?

British is friend of the world wide while Iran had no single friend

they lying on garbage, hope very soon will starve like rats

down with khominis the new hitlers of modern world

[TheMaddog780]

iran can kiss my u.s.marine ass..id love to throwdown with these pussies..how can you blame the west for a protest by your own people????

[paradirob]

I'm sick of the Islamic Revolution and the terrorism exported by the rulers of Iran. I am sick of Hizballah and Hamas. If I hear just one fart coming from any one of those quarters just mentioned, then I hope Israel will give them the nose-bleed of the century. These chicken-shit Mullahs and their stupid revolution should either dry up and drop dead, or they should be given the ass-kicking that only the Israelis can deliver. The American public should stand up for the Jewish State of Israel.

[swamimans]

execute the british staffers. the british fuckers never learn from history. they interfered with iran politics by creating this demonstration

[CULAVE]

swamimans- bullshit. Keep listening to the lies of the Ayatollah and his puppet Ahmadinejad. Just like the bombing in Zahedan- if theres a problem, blame it on the British. Are you referring to 1953- that was allmost 60 years ago- get over it!

As for the 'interfering-' if Iran wants to be respected by the world then it has to accept scrutiny- like every other country. At no point did any British minister support any candidate so you are either brainwashed or willfully spinning lies.

[swamimans]

you did it under the shah so why not again. this the revolution that you started. the british carved up the middle east into constant warring nation estates so as to destroy unity among muslims. the english are worse than the israelis by a mile. do you think any prime minister is going to espouse covert action publicly. the british kill and overthrow in secret. just like when you forced opium on the chinese. vote bnp for indigenous whites. how about get out of other peoples countries.

[CULAVE]

swamimams- Because of that terrible mistake in 1953, its very easy to blame it on the British- if something goes wrong we are an easy way to take attention off the Iranian elite. Most Iranians weren't even born at that time. It is very unlikely we would make the same mistake again, certainly not in Iran. The hundreds of thousands protesting against Ahmadinejad- do you really think they are some sort of western puppets. As for the BNP- ? They are a very small party so that has no relevance.

[swamimans]

I dont think its hundreds of thousands protesting. There were many more who voted for Ahmadinejad who werent on the streets but in more rural parts of the country. Those demonstrating are supporters of the shah and against islamic values because they want another shah that forces western ideals among muslims. Muslims have lost almost every country to dictators but we are still strong and growing. I dont agree with the worshiping practices of the shia of iran but they are holding strong.

[CULAVE]

swamimans- supporters of the Shah- I saw a number of them making it clear they support the Islamic Revolutio and if they don't who could blame them. This is a despotic regime that regularly brainwashes poor and uneducted Iranians in vitriol against the west. It is a regime that executes minors and homosexuals on dubious charges, it is a regime that regularly threatens the existence of Israel. As for Islamic 'virtues' Iran's human rights record is a testiment to that.

[CULAVE]

swamimans- its easy for you in the US to sit there and defend Ahmadinejad and the Iranian establishment while thousands of Iranians sick of that despotic regime struggle against persecution.

[CULAVE]

swamimans- you mean in the way that homosexuals are regularly executed?

[az777641b]

phnx4life : Your a total IDIOT !!!!

Remember, Remember the 4th of July.

The day we fight the evil rulers and show them we are not stupid, we are not slaves. Stand on that day and show them who we realy are. EDF

watch?v=jC3-tKEQJPs

[phnx4life]

Finally, caught the bastard british (be assured the amerikans are also behind it) instigating with their hands in the proverbial political 'cookie jar' But it is nothing new, they have been staging these kinds of scenarios within their own borders for decades...Iranians do as you please with them, they deserve it. It's too bad you cannot reach the puppeteers..for they pull the strings.

[CULAVE]

phnx4life- rubbish. At no point did any British minister support any candidate. Do you hear 'Death to Iran!' on the streets of London? NO

[NorthPlum]

The US aren't much better.

[NorthPlum]

Well, I wasn't calling the fact that 2 British soldiers dressed as what they did.

But the rest of your post does no correlate to why they were there. I mean c'mon, we were an invasion force along with the US. I think that might have something to do with it? Perhaps to gather intel? I mean "klling protesters", what a load of crap.

[herodotall]

Iran said today five of the nine detained local staff at the British embassy in Tehran had been released while the other four were being held for questioning, state television reported. -The Independent

[suchsinssuchsins]

i guess these poor britons have to be burned alive at the stake and videos of their torturous deaths posted on the internet before westerners all over the world stop apologizing for their cultures, for their democratic institutions, for their christian heritage and for their tolerance. maybe that is what it will take to bring about an end to political correctness.

[CULAVE]

suchsinnachsins- sorry can you repeat........ I was busy drinking my tea;

[suchsinssuchsins]

i wonder if people like the brits and all the other tea drinking, soccer playing, weakling, effeminate, pathologically self hating eurodandies are ever going to wake up and realize that diplomacy does not work with psychopathic madmen. i wonder what it will take? maybe if iran built some gas chambers and killed millions of people they would get. i doubt it though. they'll just sink deeper into their pathology of self loathing and appease these religious nut case tyrants.

[suchsinssuchsins]

*news flash* all these islamopsychos are LYING when they say that what they want is to defend themselves and protect their right to practice their own culture in their own nations. what they REALLY want is to conquer every corner of the globe, convert every human being to islam by the sword, and kill-enslave or force to pay special taxes all those who will not submit.

[snifnscratch]

the prophet mohammed was a rapist and terrorist

[jtravis282]

Which proves what? That your theory that Israel controls America is nonsense.

[jtravis282]

Of course you weren't paying attention when Olmert asked Bush for permission to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities and Bush told him NO. I can understand why you would ignore that, since it would conflict with your conspiracy nut theories.

[NorthPlum]

Biggest load of crap I've ever heard.

[sarrass1]

I can't believe so many people still trust the mainstream media after all their years of propaganda and lies. The pre-election opinion polls show Ahmadinajad ahead 2 to 1 and he was the people's choice. The British and US media were transmitting lies and propaganda into Iran. The demonstrators numbered only a few thousand. As for the murder of Neda Soltan it was a sniper not Iranian Police. Watch jonn Pilger's video 'war on democracy' as the CIA pulled this sniper stunt in Venezuela.

[jtravis282]

Even the Iranians admitted there were millions of more votes than there were voters. Mousavi even lost in his own stronghold districts. You are delusional. Just because the CIA engages in subversive activities doesn't mean the Iranian state run news is giving it to you straight.

[sarrass1]

jtravis282 The Iranians didn't admit there were millions more votes like they were hiding something they merely stated that in some cities voting was over 100% because apparently in Iran people are allowed to and do vote in more than one city. Its not good but its not fraud. I don't trust the mass media so what makes you think I would trust the Iranian media any more. The pre-election nationwide opinion poll I was refering to was legit and cannot be ignored. Ahmedinajad was ahead 2 to 1.

[sarrass1]

The so called strongholds of the butcher of Bagdad (google it) Mousavi were not his strongholds for the simple reason that Ahmedinajad also spoke Azeri. The fact is the mainstream media came up with no evidence of electoral fraud.

[sarrass1]

I meant to say the mousavi the butcher of Beirut.

[jtravis282]

"The Guardian Council said on the state TV Web site that a probe of the election showed more votes were cast in these constituencies than there were registered voters. Published reports indicate the number of affected votes could be near 3 million. Around 40 million people voted in the election But the council insisted the problems do not affect the outcome of the vote."

This is what the mainstream media reported, is it not accurate?

[sarrass1]

jtravis No its not accurate. The mainstream media told a half truth intending to mislead. They didn't mention that the guardian council stated that iranians can vote in more than one city. It is correct that 3 million extra votes wouldn't have changed the outcome as Ahmedinajad was ahead 2 to 1. You can't convince me that the mainstream media can be trusted. The BBC for example got caught red handed faking photos of protestors who were actually supporters of ahmedinajad.

[sarrass1]

The BBC and other mainstream news organisations were also caught out faking photos of the Lhasa riots. How about all the crap they put out about Iraq and its non-existant weapons of mass destrcution. Why didn't they reveal the identity of the butcher of Beirut? To get the real news we have to seek out the increasingly rare independent investigative journalists. I'm not Iranian by the way and I'm not a fan of the unelected supreme leader of Iran who has the real power. I just want the truth.

[jtravis282]

This sh!t wouldn't be happening if Bush was still President. He'd smack down the Iranian regime like he did to Saddam.

[dirtystonerhippie]

theres a lot of brain washed idiots in this thread....

[kreiglloyd2001]

I Guess the Brits will have to learn the hard way. Your Ass kissing will get you zip. Its to bad when a man will strap a bomb on his ass come in to your house and blow himself and you up, that you think that you can be nice and he will submitt. I guess if you dont learn from your history....you will suffer in your future

[acquibajo]

Ahmadinejad...don't you think it is pretty obvious that your people are asking you to step down? They don't like you, they no longer want you running their lives. Leave office now and save Iran.

[SSWOLFENSTEINSS]

Finally , people beginning to understand that most BIG problems in this world today are caused byStinky Britain . This nation of parasites could not stand it when the British military lost all their power fighting Gemany and could no longer occupy other peoples property, land or steal resorces.. internatiional justice when it comes out that hole in tony blairs or current P.M Shit brown head is joke You Stinky brits will pay big for your support of zionism and their/your actions in M-E.

[Jarrard69]

fuck yeah!

[Jarrard69]

i feel very sorry for iranians that lives in britan

and call us britshit

go home! your not welcome!

[shootthedevil]

Britshits need to leave other country alone. You people are parasites.

[Jarrard69]

this is just one big joke! the uk done this, the uk done that!

how old are you really? why is so easy to blame some when it the whole world thats fucked up!!

[sarrass1]

Of course the British were involved. Milliband is an expense fiddling lying crook. His words really mean a lot.

[shootthedevil]

The Britshit were evil empire that caused many problems in Iran. No wonder they threw those bastards out. Fuck Britain.

[Jarrard69]

where are you living then? you back water scum!

[FredFoothand]

move to Iran scum

[SSWOLFENSTEINSS]

Me and your mate planning to run away to Iran chump.Your mate says you smell like a pig. hard working british embassy staff... Ha ha... Brits are #2 parasites only topped by the zionists... You brit deserve to be kicked out of whole areas for you past actions so please tell your lawmakers to stick a cucummber in it.... france ,britain and any western nation or company with ties and money lines to Apartheid Israel need to be totally isolated and ignored boycotted....

[Jarrard69]

Brits are #2 parasites lol

so what makes them parasites?

[Jarrard69]

well the extremists have got to blame someone, after all free thinking is not permittedin iran is it?

[Jarrard69]

you moron, the people arrested are not british, they are local iranians!!!

[shootthedevil]

If they are regular Iranian working for the British embassy, then they are traitors. After what the Britshit did, they should kick all those Britshit out of the coutnry.

[hurchel]

jarrard it did not say that

[Walt471]

This will make an interesting parallel to the response of the Shah in 1979. Those street protests went on for months -- found a cool site; Balkingpoints ; incredible satellite view of earth

[PresidentTeleprompte]

How can Britain who is asking its employees to work for free have any money to waste by meddling in Iran.

[CULAVE]

PresidentTelephompte- The issue here is that the Iranian Elite are using the events of 1953 as an excuse for demonising London at every turn. The UK is not meddling.

[TheAnarchist33]

Only if your thoughts are government approved! ;-)

[neonevangelion666]

It's sad to see so many people with good intent falling for the typical Western/CIA propaganda. The girl's death is being headlined all over the world while the deaths of 1.3 Million Iraqis is completely covered up and ignored. You people asking for a revolution need to wake up and realize what you're saying. You're asking for bloodshed on a scale 10x as large as that of Iraq. Millions would die in a conflict involving the overthrow of the Iranian leadership with U.S. and UK intervention.

[jimed]

Have much has milliband rinsed the tax payers of the UK?

[charlessmyth]

Not as much as Mousavi and/or Rafsanjani have rinsed the Iranians for.

[jimed]

Its like Maddof telling people not to commit fraud! :-/

[charlessmyth]

And Madoff was setting SEC rules :-/ It's good to be the king.

[jimed]

looked like the protester were kicking the ish out of the police, not a peaceful protest is it?

Why would Iran think that the UK would want to cause trouble there? i mean its not like they have ever done it before!

[charlessmyth]

When a desperate Ahmadinejad and Iranian regime's strongest response is to shoot Neda Soltan in the back, ban her family from the anonymous burial, and arrest Iranians who work for a foreign (EU) embassy, one has to wonder: Will this regime and Ahmadinejad be consigned to the 'trash bin' of history, via a Guns of August from the fires claimed to lie beneath the ashes of the defeats brought about by recent crackdowns.

[CULAVE]

charlessmyth- well said. Every year ending in the digit '9' appears to be an eventful one in Iran. I think this has now gone beyond anti-Ahmadinejad. Ayatollah Khamenei himself is being challenged. With some luck the Islamic Republic has had its day and the great nation of Iran can once again truly join the international community and the xenophobic chants stirred up by theocratic demagogues will be consigned to the dust of time.

[charlessmyth]

1947-1948 was bit ahead of its time :-) Maybe it'd be safer to say that there's always somewhere with a year-zero.
