During the #IranProtests in November, the Islamic Republic shut down the internet and we watched thousands of Iranian protesters get killed and imprisoned while the world and the media stayed silent./
/Regardless of what you think of Trump, it is of utmost importance not to side with the Islamic Republic. The people who mourned #Soleimani (who was instrumental in the oppression of people in #Syria and #Iraq) were participating in a STATE SPONSORED PARADE/
/ in which their lives were not at risk (hence the turnout captured by a media who's not allowed to document real protests). Whereas the people protesting against the Islamic Republic in #IranProtests2020 which was triggered by the downing of #PS752 by the #IRGC /

A simple question for certain DC politicians & MSM who glorify Soleimani & describe him as a "popular general," a "divine" figure & a "national war hero"...

Why are Iranians tearing down posters of such a beloved man (!) & calling him a terrorist?

#IraniansDetestSoleimani
Jan 12 - Tehran, #Iran
Protesters torch a large poster of two terrorists:
-IRGC Quds Force chief Qassem Soleimani

Thread: According to some analysts, certain portions of the Iranian population are "more Iranian" than others. They argue that Iranians who participated in #Soleimani's funeral processions were forced to do so & clearly do not represent all of #Iran. #IranProtests2020 1/6
Now, Iranians who are protesting the downing of Ukrainian plan, are the "real voice" of the entire nation & represent all of the country. It seems that they are just cherry-picking events that support whatever preconceived notions are held about #Iran. 2/6
Any analyst from any percussion can easily find empirical evidence for their arguments by pointing to a gathering or an official statement. That's because #Iran is a diverse nation of over 80 million people with an intricate bureaucracy. They are seldom unified on any issue. 3/6

To certain DC politicians & MSM who glorify Soleimani & describe him as a "popular general," a "divine" figure & a "national war hero," watch how people in #Iran tear apart a poster of his image along with the regime's dictator @khamenei_ir.

MIC DROP!
@khamenei_ir Attention certain DC politicians, MSM & "Iran experts"

You argued Iranians will "rally around the flag" following the killing of Qassem Soleimani.

So, why do most Iranians refuse to disrespect the U.S. & Israeli flags?

MIC DROP!

Another view Iranians refusing to disrespect the U.S. & Israeli flags.

Those who do walk on the flags (most likely of the regime's IRGC Basij members) are booed & people begin chanting: "Shame on you!"
