2009 Iranian Revolution - Riot Police falls into demonstrator hands 14 June

[bisdease]

I like your video, and would like to use part of it in my song. My song is about people struggling for freedom around the world from oppressive governments. The song would be place on Youtube.com for people to see. I would appreciate if you'd give me permission to use part of your video in my song.

[2009IranRevolution]

@bisdease By all means...

[THEGR8BIGM0UTH]

Let our revenge be the laughter of our children.

[rovibe]

Amazing.  Political unrest, riots in the street, burning vehicles... And yet, it's all very tame compared to what those assclown Laker fans did following their recent championship.

[vuurwerktomw]

Why they helping that dude, should have beaten the crap out of him. He would have done the same if he was still on that motorcycle.

[Seamalicous]

@vuurwerktomw They have these things, they're known as morals.

[isk8tokill]

i want my iran back into the hands of the people

[2009IranRevolution]

@isk8tokill hopefully that day is near !

[cainsrain]

I'm so proud to be apart of this earth, for it's the people that make up this planet not the evil dictators. No matter what race or religion we all desire TRUE freedom. God bless you Iranian people. This almost brought me to tears. Violence is not the answer. Through peace we can achieve a WORLD REVOLUTION! -from U.S.A.

[DeftJay]

That's how real revolutionaries are born; when corrupt cops are shown nothing but love by the people they beat.

He better have defected and started bearing arms against oppressors.

[Blackened666Death]

support from jordan even though we dont have a problem i hope to one day see a middle east without religous tyranny

[bigmoran]

Get this dictator out of power. he is responsible for all the deaths in iran and a lot of people died in iraq because of him...He is an animal...bigmoran in Ireland

[0oo0THELONETIGER0oo0]

this is my work out video right here !!!!!!!!!

[masandaran1980]

i saw this video very often and always the same question: "Why they let him go?" Can not get it!!!!! The next day he returns and shots on the same people who rescued him!!! I would break his bones so he will not come back so fast!

[phackqu]

No more monetary bullshit!We have the technology and resources to feed the world!Humans have the knowledge to heal the planet.

[MCrushala]

Are you familiar with the Venus Project then?

[phackqu]

No more religion!Humans need to come together as one race and fight for earth

[Diznab90]

IRAN SHALL BE FREE

[RedSoveriegn]

America has your back

Long live free people!

[liambrawley]

Support from britain

DEATH TO AHMED INIJAD !!

[almita619]

Mexico is with you.

VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!!!

[m4dmase]

i agree, fight the intolerance and opression!

@ inmate527: that would just worsen the situation. it IS possible to cause an revolution without weapons, but just with words and images! don't forget ghandi!

[plastiras13]

Keep fighting Brave Iranian people!!!!!!!! You inspire us all!!!

[renagade12]

i agree god bless the Iranian people

[ThePonette]

humanity is not lost in the fight when for a right and truthful cause

[Inmate527]

All they need now is some guns. America can provide afew thousand unmarked AK47's cant we? After all France did help us with our revolution.I think we can do the same for the Iranian people.

[2009IranRevolution]

Interesting observation !

[Inmate527]

Thank you!

[brazilpride5]

If we gave them guns, then the Iranian government would just start shooting at everyone armed or not, i think we should provide the people with tear gas and gas mask that would be reasonable and less dangerous.

[RattlesnakeRepublic]

Yep, the tyrants will just leave the building because we ask them to. Maybe they could vote on it.

[martinw1200]

Those who doubted that Ahmadinejad was vermin from hell, can now see proof of his evil.

The protesters are the greatest heroes on earth.

They are the real Iran.

[DnWvideo]

Well im not Iranian but I can tell that the people living there want to stop the terrorism and stop that stupid government in iran and to get freedom...To me those protesters have the right to do that, its not like one stupid protest like for example ":your gay, god doesnt love that". Hopefully anyone responsible for this Iranian revolution should die alive, and burn for all I care.

[luke4paparoach1998]

fucking bastords

[john5o]

whos side are you on the Iranian dictators or the peoples of Iran ?

[renagade12]

look buddy the us government is already setting Mousavi up as a terrorist read the news..

[Sonoraman]

The Ayatollahs and Mullahs in Iran need to have their own personal Mussolini Moments, ASAP! Americans needs to support this revolution in Iran even if Obama is too spineless to even make a statement that is less than flaccid. LONG LIVE FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY! DOWN WITH TYRANNY!

[renagade12]

LOOK PEOPLE THIS IS NOT A RIGHT REVOLUTION THE PEOPLE AND SRUDANT OF IRAN ARE DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE US GOVERNMENT WANTS...... THIS IS A Norange revolution remember that

[renagade12]

let me finnish now ...in the 1950s iran had a DEMOCRACY!!! THE Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh AND HE declaid HE WAS NOT GOING TO RENEW the oil leases that his predicesor had given to great britian and to the united sates of america which just allowed american and britsh oil companies to come and suck out all the oil they want from irans ground very low cost very little money

[renagade12]

AND LET ME FINNISH AGAIN, it all went to the ruler of iran at the time and almost non for the iranian people so Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh came in and said were going to change that , if you want our oil you got to pay full market price for it we got to start spending the money on the iranian people

[renagade12]

and lastly ...... the USA, AND THE BRITISH GOVERNMENTS SAID no way!! and then the CIA PUT A COU ON Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh.... AND THE US GOVERNMENT OVER THEROUGH THE GOVERNMENT THAT THE IRANIAN PEOPLE ELECTED!!!!!!!!!! AND THIS IS THE TRUTH! THE US HAS A HISTORY OF DOING THIS!! AND ITS HAPPENING AGAIN!!!!!! IRANIAN PEOPLE DO NOT DO WHAT THEY WANT AND JUST READ AND YOULL KNOW!

[carbotot]

Fight for the Truth Iranians......God is with you!!!!!

[tkdmaster90]

hey,in Iran is aproximatively the same scenary like in Moldova.....

I was a little part from our revolution,which didn't get the expected result,SO Brothers,FIGHT till the END,WE UNDERSTAND YOU......

[twilightwarrior1]

I think that the Iranians need to uprise violently and overthrow their government. The same opressive dictator has been in charge for a long time, and unless they take him out, that's not going to change, because most dictators are pretty heartless and peaceful protesting won't make them change. It's sad, but violence would probably be the only way for the Iranians to take back their country.

[goodnass]

Obama shouldn't interfer in their conflict. It's Iran's fight for liberty and justice. This time, I think that America should let them solve their problem alone.

[Kerisa]

I completely agree with you, goodnass. While I would love for Mr. Obama to lend a hand, the Iranian victory would mean nothing if not by their own hands.

[athlonz2007]

what the fuck they beat people on motorcycles?! crazy police!!! Lead the revolution, KEEP UP, Until you are free.

[elitemathlete]

That's one brave news crew.

Why did the audio get cut off when they caught the pig?

[SkyShaw]

Imagine what that policeman must feel like, previously he had been violently beating a man, now after he had suffered the brutal revenge of the crowd, the same man offers to help him. Can you imagine? The feeling of pure mercy and forgiveness. I'm an atheist but if there is such a thing as a kind god, it shows through men like that, through that kind of forgiveness.

[nsmilin]

ore Power to all those who want change and the right to live and have a voice!!! They are all brave and fight them back give all them a good taste of their own medicine!!! Specially the basijis they should be all destroyed !! But the they should not be showing the face of those who change side and could be identified!!

[themightychickens]

Keep fighting Iranians, you got the whole worlds support!

[yaabolfazl]

The riots in Iran are being instigated, not by Mousavi supporters (the majority of which are merely pissed that Mousavi lost, but still want the current system), but by those who wish to start a complete revolution, to overthrow the entire theocracy. Indeed, one must only go so far as reading the comments of GRouston to see this.

[snowshoetom]

FTP in Iran

[GRouston]

Use everything at your disposal, be innovative this is all out war. Nails, glass, wire, distractions, get organized you will win. The goal is most important-FREEDOM FROM OPRESSION, we have it here in America and we fought long and hard for it, many sacrafices, we know what it is to sacrafice and win. Nothing is worth anything unless you are wiling to sacrafise even your life for what you believe.

[tommysch]

They must organize death squads to root out and execute every single member of the current ruling elite along with their family. So they fear for their life and they will flee.

[GRouston]

Right on, if they stop now al is lost and those that bravely fought, some died will be in ven. They win and those in jails will be set free to enjoy freedom. Musavi is not the answer either, he is just as bad as the present nut cases, they need an entire overhaul.

[GRouston]

Historic, we are watching history in the making, freedom for Iranians long time opressed, it is the voice of the people. The USA has fought many battles, wars on many fronts most for freedom, we know what sacrafice is first hand. I know what war is, been there, I know what your going through just keep the pressure on, distractions, organization, make every battle count, you will gain your freedom.

[theblondebomber]

I hope the mercy shown to this policeman will be the foundation of this new Iranian movement. Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. have proven that no government can resist peaceful mass resistance.

[ndog37]

markba who? markba israel? markba amreeka? Death to who man?

I love Iran and the people, but we all know ultimately all dictators make the country have a bad reputation - iran, North Korea. Get rid of the punks who teach suicide bombing and sponsor islamic terror in lebanon. also the rules about women in iran need changing, put some women in power too

[amitabhbachchan1]

Why do any civilised rich freedom loving country want to hold on to these fukkkin fanatic 7th century barbaric religion of hate and destruction.Throw away the filthy dirty stinking scarfs and should,I NO LONGER BELONG TO THE EVIL CULT.All humans are equal to god,so dish the evi terrorist god now.

[SEATTLEcubano]

No matter what your belief, religion, or opinion, all people should have the universal right (not just a privilege) to publicly assemble and peacefully protest without the threat of government intervention. This is the true testament for a government that should be "for the people and by the people." When this tenet is no longer upheld, the government should be replaced.

[ffreak88]

any police officer who steps down from the motorcycle and waves a green flag will be a national hero. try to make them know that every time they strike!

[2009IranRevolution]

I agree!

[kika421]

The Iranians showed the policeman compassion.

He could have been beaten severely or killed.

Amazing!

[oralkali]

Kill the police kill them all use guns!

kill all the govermend and announce group of people as the goverment!

like in the French Revolution

[Nasriisking]

They should have killed him. We need to fight back, that is the only language they know, they don't understand mercy and compassion.

[ffreak88]

no, killing him would be a disaster. if they kill 10 poloce officers, the government will use it as an excuse to send in the army - they could use tanks or even aircraft, considering the huge areas covered with demonstrations.

you can't fight down the armed forces with sticks - you have to tear them on your side to isolate the regime and fight THEM with all power the country has!

[Nasriisking]

Ok, they should not kill him because he is part of the riot police. He could just be doing his job. However, if he was Basij then we should have killed him by stoning him.

[AkiraShima28]

they should be showing this on the news

[AkiraShima28]

The end will show what happens when people have freedom. They help each other

[MrVandad]

their saying MARG BAR DICTATOR which translates to death to dictators fyi

My personal prayers are for peace NOW

[AminWRX]

amazing video. Shows true humanity

[GRouston]

Overthrow the government, I am 100% behind you from the U.S., you have the numbers, go after them, use piano wire, galss, steel rods against the motorcycles of the secret police, thay will back down soon, get organized, go after their headquarters, take their guns, ammo, tear gas use it on them. You wil do it, I pray for you. I bind the enemy.

[Nasriisking]

easier said than done.

[GRouston]

I know, easy for me to say sitting here on Cape Cod. I do pray for you all and know this is a major turning point in history. I KNOW YOU WILL OVERTHROW THIS REGIME AND LIFE WILL BE MUCH BETTER FOR YOU. KEEP UP THE FIGHT, YOUR WINNING.

[AhmadAmor]

It was very magnanimous of the crowd not to kick the cop to a pulp considering what he would do to them had he been in a position of power. Shows how pacifist the people are. The violent ones are the Govnmt and Basij. May God give Iran freedom !!

[GRouston]

Historic battle for FREEDOM, go for it. Have a battle plan no war was ever won without a goal and a plan, use every trick in the book, be wise as a serpent and gentle as a dove but get the job done. Don't give an inch, don't back down, this will turn around and soon, the leaders will be overthrown, you will have your freedom, God is Good!!!

[AhmadAmor]

The Basij and Police only understand violence.......I hope the crowd kicked the police guy's balls in !!!

[ffreak88]

make a difference between these groups!

the basij fight for their priviledges, the police do their job, hopefully only as long as they fear the higher ranks.

[LegacyMicro]

This is always a common dilema. The Police need to decide which side they will be fighting on when the revolution begins. Also, as always, they will throw down the uniform as the revolution strengthens. The world is watching. Remember the rules of engagement... Fight with honor. Strike with no mercy. Godspeed.

[grandtheftkodoo]

Ugm if you read the describtion you would know.

Fight for your freedom Iran.

[persianlady100]

fight for freedom

[ugmc11]

With a big crowed like that they should go after all thoes motorcycle cops and beat the shit out of them.

They wont stand a chance against a big crowd and would run away.

[WhenYouveGoneGuru]

Then they'd call in the revolutionary guard. The image of mercy does far more. I suspect that cop along with others will be hanging up his baton.

[pmatzner1]

Wow! What an incredible video of a brutal incident. There was one woman down in the beginning of the police motorcycle sweep. Was she injured by bikes or shot? Were any shots fired?

[2009IranRevolution]

I don't think any shots were fired on 14th, but the next day they shot directly into the crowd killing 8 and injuring 28.

Watch some of 'June 15' clips. (They are graphic though)

[yavar1982]

Az Tamam Iranian Dar khast mikonam k be Frod gah hamleh konan seda sima ro begiran, Ma digar Rjeme Jomhori Islami nmikhaim,

Ba Arezoii Azadi Iran

[Hersheysd]

You know what is even more amazing? Is that this policeman was there to beat these people down, and it was he who ended up being beaten down. The most amazing part is that there were those who took him to safety and provided him aid when he needed it. That is what you call humility.

[RoSesAreRedF]

Iranians by nature are very compassionate people, esp. towards strangers
