    He condemns Iran yet will not understand that the greatest oppressors of the people are the two that support him, Russia, and China. Of course, he needs Russia, and China, to finance his "empire" since no one else in the world will.

    Is there no end to this fools hypocrisy?

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...t-iran-protests-saying-world-is-watching.html

    “Oppressive regimes cannot endure forever, and the day will come when the Iranian people will face a choice. The world is watching!” Trump said in two tweets. “The entire world understands that the good people of Iran want change, and, other than the vast military power of the United States, that Iran’s people are what their leaders fear the most....”

    I am still amazed at the lack of intelligence on the right. God said "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge", and the right continues to prove that to be true as the US sinks into history as Rome did.

    The left thinks so highly of their intellect, they never stop mentioning it. They are much like Khan Noonien Singh of Star Trek, they are only a legion in their own mind.

    Lack of intelligence on the right? According to the left Facebook ads convinced Clinton voters to vote for Trump.

    This is another example of the duplicitous nature of the right wing Trumpette. No one has said Facebook ads convinced anyone of anything. What they have said is that 128 Million people veiwed those ads, and there is a chance that some may have been influenced by them,

    Now, all you have to do is try to understand the difference between "convinced", and "influenced".

    Ok, have it your way. According to the highly educated and intellectually elite left, Facebook ads influenenced highly educated and intellectually elite Clinton voters enough to swing an election that required a special council to investigate and also dominated left wing media programming for the last year.

    You leftists have argued for a year that the election was influenced through collusion but now you're unwilling to admit youre so shallow and uneducated that what you've been claiming actually worked on uneducated leftists didn't happen. Or did it? Which is it? Did Russia influence highly educated and intellectually elite Clinton voters or didn't they? If not, then why the investigation?

    What it comes down to is if there was no influence or collusion then why the investigation? If there was Russiam influence then that's an admission highly educated and intellectual elite Clnton supporters are actually morons for supporting another candidate because of Facebook ads.

    Feel better? Probably not.

    The Iranian people do not want a USA-engineered and financed overthrow of an elected government like the one in 1953 where the USA overthrew Prime Minister Mossadeq and installed the corrupt Shah of Iran.

    The CIA is USA's black ops dirty deeds agency. The CIA was also responsible for overthrowing Indonesian President Sukarno in 1967 and being complicit in the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Indonesia's Chinese citizens.

    I am quite well aware of the involvement of America in foreign matters such as Iran, Nicarauqa, Colombia, and the list goes on, and on. So, what makes you think this rioting is inspired by the US?

    Not feeling any different since your convoluted post makes absolutely no sense. The interference in the election, (call it influence, or collusion,) has been admitted by many, so that is reason for the investigation, and since many of the participants are pleading guilty the reason for the Trumpkins fear.

    Propaganda? You mean like two scopes of ice cream? Not knowing Jackson wasn't alive during the civil war? Turning consensual sex into assault? Eating fried chicken with a fork? Drink 10 cans of soda? You mean this kind of propaganda? Sorry, that's your side who brings up this drivel. How about you actually debate me on something worthwhile and we'll see.

    So if there was Russian influence, then the highly educated and intellectually elite were duped by Facebook ads. Feel smarter?

    If America experienced rioting fomented by foreign powers they would use a military strike.

    The CIA appears to be specifically engaged in regime change around the world.

    And yet, we keep whippin' your asses!

    DEMOCRACY DIES IN KOWTOWING: In an article headlined “Iran blocks Instagram and Telegram apps, warns protesters will ‘pay the price’ for unrest,” the Washington Post’s Erin Cunningham goes on to describe Iranian President Hassan Rouhani as “moderate:”

    From the capital, Tehran, to Kermanshah in the west and the holy city of Qom in the north, Iranians defied police to vent frustration against a government that allows limited space for political dissent.

    Rouhani called on protesters to refrain from violence and damaging government property. After a night of escalating unrest saw attacks on government buildings and violent confrontations with police, the moderate president, reelected to a second term in May, took a conciliatory tone.

    In stunning scenes, Iranian protesters chanted “Death to the dictator!” as they tore down posters of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who holds absolute authority in Iran. Public criticism of Khamenei is generally taboo.

    Omri Ceren of the Israel Project has screen shots of additional examples of such journalistic “moderation” and asks, “How many Iranians does the Iranian govt have to shoot in the streets before journalists stop calling that govt & president ‘moderate’?”

    Just think of the media as still being Democratic activists with bylines who are still part of Ben Rhodes’ blob, and it all makes sense.

    There's no way you can win, either Russia influenced uneducated liberal rubes to vote for a candidate they didn't support because of Facebook ads, or they didn't which means the investigation is bogus. Since there is an ongoing investigation then one must conclude liberal rubes were influenced by Facebook ads. Still feel highly educated?

    Ah, here is something to debate. I see the left likes to make up definitions or change words when it suits them. At first all we heard was collusion. As that died down they moved onto interference, now you move to influence. Each time the meaning gets less involvement with Russia's actions. And yet you will interchange these words at will. Disingenuous at best. Then you claim many of the participants are pleading guilty. Do you have some idea of how many people Mueller is investigation? Of all of them, four have been charged and two plead guilty to lying to the FBI, big deal. None of the charges are related to any so called Russian collusion. I laugh at the superior intellect.

    Mullahs beat a woman bloody for taking off her hijab and you want to put on a pink pussyhat and protest Trump over it?

    Two protestors have been shot and killed by regime security forces. I'm sure updates will be happening as the day progresses, but certainly not from the Media/Leftist/Democrat complex; that is unless they can invent an angle that blames Trump and/or praises Obama.

    Iran Protesters Remain Defiant as Regime Warns They Will "Pay the Price" for Unrest.

    Protests Offer Opportunity for a Real U.S. Reset in the Middle East.

    Obama Lackeys' Talking Points Side with Mullahs, Not the Protesters.
