So much has happened since we last spoke, gentle reader.
Holy Moses has so much happened since we last spoke!!!
Let me see… the orange clown invaded Venezuela and overnight, arrested Maduro and his wife, bringing them to NYC to stand trial for drug trafficking and just being assholes. ICE Neo Gestapo shot and killed, MURDERED, in fact, two white American protesters for no reason other than protesting their fascist tactics. We will discuss those insanities soon in other posts, but first, let’s talk about…
The Iranian people, who, squeezed for so long by 70% inflation and the Rial becoming almost worthless, finally decided they had had enough when the government openly declared they cannot do anything about the economy, and thing would actually become so much worse. They decided to react. First, all the merchants, tradesmen, and shop owners closed up shop in the middle of the day and walked off, bringing commerce in Tehran to an absolute standstill. That night, as the mullahs were still trying to figure out what to do about the tradesmen, people poured out into the streets and began passionately protesting against the theocratic dictatorial government which for forty years had done nothing but spread misery and oppression. All across Iran, man, woman, and child walked the streets and cried out, their desperation and helplessness obvious in their voices.
From Mahshad to Abadan, from Rasht to Tehran, all across Iran thousands of people poured into the street and took out their anger on government buildings and even the police who tried to get them to go back home. The protests grew larger and more powerful; things began to look very bleak for the mullahs in charge. And that was when the so called ‘God’s spirit’, scared shitless, sent out the ghouls, the monsters known as the Revolutionary Guard.
Those ogres, highly trained in violence as the mullahs’ guards and fiercely loyal to the regime, tore into the protesters, and without any compunction, began beating whoever they could reach; man, woman, even children! They used rubber bullets and tear gas to try and disperse them, but the brave people of Iran were not going anywhere! The younger ones even tussled with the devils, often giving as good as they got. The world saw all of this and began rooting for the people. Everyone, people in the streets as well as heads of state sent messages of encouragement and support, urging them on to depose the evil bastards once and for all.
But then, the mullahs saw their days numbered and, like other dictators throughout history… they panicked. Internet access in all of Iran vanished altogether. They even managed to shut out Starlink somehow. The protesters were suddenly completely cut off from the outside world.
And the mullahs started killing them.
The revolutionary guard, the heinous, ruthless band of ‘Basijis’ were let loose on the people shouting for their freedom with orders to kill. The news feeds went dark but somehow people inside Iran managed to send out video clips of those monsters shooting protesters of all ages in the face at close range and in the back as they fled for their lives. Man, woman, and yes, even children were killed en-masse and their broken and bloodied bodies piled up in body bags in morgues all over the country. Relatives flooded those morgues searching for their departed beloveds; unzipping body bag after body bag, collapsing to the ground when they finally unzipped that fateful last zipper. When the protests finally abetted, the number of murdered ranged anywhere between 2,600 according to international agencies to between 30 and 40 thousand, according to other agencies and eyewitnesses. Knowing what I know about those bearded ghouls, I’d accept the 30,000+ number.
Bastards.
These clips made it to the western world due only to the clever hard work of brave people inside and around Iran who wanted the world to see the monstrous inhumanity of those so-called ‘Muslims’ calling themselves “voice of god” and all that other bs when their comfortable and luxurious lifestyles are threatened. The lifestyle they enjoy while the Iranian people deal with 70% inflation and a currency so worthless it reminds me of pre-WWII Germany when wheelbarrows of Marks were needed to buy a loaf of bread, if there was any bread in the first place.
All that happened as the world watched. The European leaders, full of vigorous support before the blackout, stood by and allowed it all to happen, vomiting words upon words for political points and nothing else. Worst of the lot, as is always the case, was Trump, who without considering any practicality, PROMISED Iranian protesters help, raising their desperate hopes only to do nothing and dash those hopes.
But it isn’t over. The people are still suffering oppression and hunger, and nothing looks to be improving, so you can bet they will be back on the streets demanding freedom and liberties offered to people around the world. The more than 30,000 dead won’t have died for nothing.
And this time, the damned mullahs won’t get away with it.
