Iranians believe the entire process is rigged by the regime & are protesting by tearing up posters of the regime's candidates.

#Iran

College student asks those not voting in the regime's parliamentary elections on Friday to clap their hands.

Then he asks those who are voting to clap their hands.

The result is obvious.

Faced with unprecedented low voter turnout, authorities are cancelling finger-stamps & allowing people to vote with photo-lacking IDs.
This will allow further vote rigging for officials to claim "massive participation."

Census offices are open today to issue IDs for people seeking to vote, official says.

Regime authorities are resorting to desperate measures to rig the vote count as tens of million of people are boycotting the mullahs' elections farce.

Zeynab Hassani says she is covering the regime's elections as a "Guardian Council observer".
She shows a "reporter" ID stamped by the Interior Ministry & signed by the Tehran Province Security Dept. chief.

My take:
Regime intel is controlling the elections.

#Iran's Soleimani’s funeral: The hallmark of a theocratic propaganda machine
Taking sheer numbers for legitimacy is an insult to the people of Iran who bravely took part in #IranProtests &lost 1000s of their loved ones.
irannewswire.org/soleimanis-fun…
1. According to #Iran's state-run media, millions of #Iranians attended the funeral of the regime’s top military commander in Tehran. They published pics of Soleimani’s funeral, saying sheer numbers proved ppl supported the regime and its chief terrorist.
2. Mainstream media were quick to push the regime’s agenda. What they fail to mention is the most fundamental feature of the current #Iranian state. It’s a theocracy & dictators are good at forcing the masses to attend propaganda gatherings.

#Iran regime & MSM(@CNN @NYTimes @NBCNews) in the #US are portraying a criminal, a Child Killer &a war culprit in #Syria,#Iraq & a prime executioner in #Iran(#QassemSoleimani)as "revered"&N.Hero.
To MSM: Stop this dirty business. It's legitimizing the massacre of #IranProtesters Qassem Soleimani's criminal record.
@CNN @nytimes @NBCNews @IranNW @GiulioTerzi @iran_policy @STRUANSTEVENSON @USAdarFarsi @USAmbUN @StateDept @RichardGrenell @FoxNews @UNHumanRights Let's examine this here in the next few tweets. Is #Soleimani really a "hero" to #Iranians like what's being portrayed out of #Iran's state media, given the censorship,&lack of any freedom 4the ppl to show their true feelings?

@USAdarFarsi @foxnewsalert
Even the school kids are forced to "mourn". Why? Here is the answer:

#Iran has decided to directly respond against the #US assassination of #IRGC commander #QassemSoleimani and #Iraq commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandes
#Iran #IRGC cmdr #QassemSoleimani movement was not a secret because it was understood that his killing will create a response.

He was killed in #Iraq by a #US order and #Iran will hit the #US by Khamenei order.

That will drag a wider confrontation

#Iran #QassemSoleimani commander was due to visit #Turkey President Erdogan and had a visit scheduled to #Lebanon.

His trips were known for many. The assassination will not at all affect Iran military and operationally because no one is indispensable.

#Iran: several thousand people gathered o the central market in the Arab city of #Ahwaz to protest against the Iranian regime and what they describe as "discriminating policies against the Arab people"
#Iran: the situation later turned violent after Iranian police tried to break up the Arab protest in #Ahwaz, using tear gas and rubber bullets on the people.

The protests are a response to insults being made towards the Arab people on Iranian TV
