I protested the election of 2000, which was a stolen election. What's all the noise about. We taught them how to do it. Just have Faux News declare you the winner.

The us media has lost all credibility...

great interview. one of the better ones i've seen. this guy knows what hes talking about

I strongly disagree with the beginning statement in this video.  The point was not that Twitter caused the revolution but that much of the riot video was disseminated by Twitter. I think it is a strawman argument.

It was not:

Twitter----> Revolution

It was:

Riots----broadcast---->Twitter

I believe that the importance of Twitter, and the internet, is downplayed. It did not cause the riots but disseminated the information and broadcast it to the world.

so i should "check history" eh? i am a qualified historian who specialises in Iran what are your qualifictions? do you even know how history works? do you know how to read a book? and please show evidence of these people who are speaking english without any accent.

Some comment on the three Jews and the Jerusalem Post support for those three jews who generated 90% of the so called Twitter commentary would seem appropriate considering the title of this retarded fukwit posting.

yeah dumbass i KNOW they CAN speak english but you and none of these fuckers round here can tell me that an iranian inhabitent can speak english without accent and phrase things in english perfectly! nd look at the patern..afganistan,iraq next up is iran nd this time it wont even be american soldiers, this time they operate BEHIND the scene, history repeats itself, you should check it........

this is an amazingly good analysis of the situation. No "who benefits?" bullshit, just whats happening in the country. Thank you.

[eeedel]

Haha... there's a good chance hes never been to any city outside of America. People within a certain age bracket are normally "hip/trendy" and concern themselves with the same things "normal" young ppl around the globe do. That type of person are the same ones that think they'll see lions and giraffes on the tarmac if they ever go to Africa. Friend of mine in college has family in Cameroon and said she sees more wild animals running around in maryland/virginia than she ever did out there.

Formula to fool the American Pavlov's dogs:

Fool me once, wtf? Fool me on every media outlets, IT MUST BE TRUE!

WHAT A PACT OF MENTALLY DISTURBED DOGS! Dr. Pavlov must be smiling in his grave, LMAO!

[planettan]

afrodisiac1984 talks in the great tradition of BiLo and MiSav (the two right wing dogs that can't talk but just keep barking!) LMAO!

One way you can tell that it is a CIA 'colored' distabilization ops are:

(1) totally one sided reporting

(2) their props/slogans are in ENGLISH and contained soundbytes made for US/UK media

(3) serogate English speaking mouthpieces appear simultaneously on all US media to generate critical mass coverages
