  • The brutal regime in Iran is on its way out. The signs of its breaking apart are seen every day. No government can stay in power for long when it allows for atrocities in prisons to take place the horrible kinds which has been documented: rapes, beatings, killings, and such. This scourge of humanity will fall, soon.

  • PBS seems to be the only US channel with proper journalism. I'm not getting bombarded with jingles and graphics for once.

  • what is this, pbs or pravda?

  • Don't think so. Right now there isn't a single piece of evidence that points towards the idea that the United States organized the riots.

  • Check my video i dont a quik song for iran!

  • yes, it would be good to see the current government fall in 2012. some say obama is like the american version of gorbachev

  • they are both to blame, but I believe Obama made it much worse when it would have corrected itself by now. also, congress-- both sides-- really screwed up. I hope we vote all of the career politicians out on their respective arses in 2012. just my opinion.

  • Amen.

  • Do You Think the CIA is Involved in Instigating Riots in Iran or Will Get Involved Under Republican Pressure?

    Will history repeat itself with US overthrowing a popularly elected regime?

  • the protestor arne't representetives either . just some loonies .

  • guys, what are you talking about? Let me remind you which country has actually trying to overthrow Iranian democratically elected leader in 1953-1956? the answer is - the US. THe US foreign policy is not spreading democracy, but rather installing puppet autocrats as R.Pehlevi in Iran, Pinochet in Chile, Batista in Cuba, and of course - the Saudi royal family and so on and so forth.

    Let the democracies thrive without your American penny.

  • milani and majjd are generally supporters of mullas islamic rejime - this personalities are Nat representative of Iranian people.
