> YOU are the regime. Only an american can pretend not to understand that the riots were orgsnized by US and Israel precisely to justify war on "regime killing its own people".. fighting agsinst people armed by US and Israel, but this piece is omitted in the free western media.

The US and Israel is no way forced Iran's regime to mass murder their own people. The US/Israel aren't even using the regime mass murdering their own people as the main justification for going to war either way, the nuclear program, ballistic missiles and general security issues are the main justifications they seem to be using. The protests were probably just a trigger event that opened up an opportunity to finally take action against Iran that was likely going to happen in the near future regardless.

> And still, also the people pretending to not understand, do know what is going on.

Most Iranians want the regime gone, not everything is a conspiracy.

If you supply weapons and means of communication to people inside a country, who then go and kill policemen and soldiers, what do you think will happen? What do you think the US/Israeli secret services "thought"? Why do you insist on justifying what is by itself is an obvious crime?

It is incredible how you simply cannot understand 2+2=4.

"Most Iranians want the regime gone" - not at all, what they want is to live in better economical conditions, which are so bad not because of their government, but because of yours. And whatever they thought about their, now gone, government, in no way implies they would prefer the Pehlevi, or whatever other US puppet governing them. Even before the war.

> means of communication to people inside a country

Wow, now you're even attempting to justifying Islamic regime internet blackouts.

> who then go and kill policemen and soldiers, what do you think will happen?

So because a few policeman and soldiers go killed you think that justifies firing automatic weapons into crowds of civilian protesters?

> not at all, what they want is to live in better economical conditions, which are so bad not because of their government, but because of yours.

You seem to be entirely unfamiliar with the Islamic regime in Iran if you think they aren't the primary reason the economy is where it is right now.

> And whatever they thought about their, now gone, government, in no way implies they would prefer the Pehlevi, or whatever other US puppet governing them. Even before the war.

With how bad the Islamic regime is at this point I think most would say just about anything is better.
