pipedreams Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) "President Trump's tweet in Farsi expressing his support for Iranians protesting Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has already earned over 200,000 likes, making it the "most liked Persian tweet" in the social media giant's history, according to a leading think tank adviser. On Saturday, protesters in the country called upon Khamenei to step down after Iran admitted to shooting down a commercial airliner on which dozens of Iranian citizens were traveling. That evening, the president sent out a tweet in Farsi, saying that he stands with their efforts. “To the brave and suffering Iranian people: I have stood with you since the beginning of my presidency and my government will continue to stand with you. We are following your protests closely. Your courage is inspiring,” Trump wrote." https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/trump-tweet-in-farsi-the-most-liked-persian-tweet-in-history-of-twitter Edited January 12, 2020 by pipedreams 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely got lots of balls to do so. It's easy for us in America to bitch and moan about our leaders and cry for impeachment. Not the same over there though. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holyjohnson Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 even the Iranians dont like Democrats..... all it would have taken was for President Obama to have worn a small Green pocket square or pin or tie during a speech and shown support for people who are dying for the Freedom he fought so hard against.. i saw videos today of Iranian Protesters refusing to step on American and Israeli flags, that has a lot of meaning in Iran, 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he puts an end to the proxy war with Iran we've been dealing with since 1979 and greatly reduces the war on Israel... I expect he might earn a title none would expect. Righteous... Honestly, i am at a loss for words. This man just keeps doing remarkable things. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwalchmai Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 If the Iranian people want to depose their oppressive rulers I'm all for it. They should use our Constitution as a template. I've been watching them since the Shah left, though, and I haven't seen much commitment to a free society. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railfancwb Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Have “the people” of Iran had much chance since the Shah left to remodel their government? The Muslim bosses seem uninterested in letting the people speak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea has to have the religious oligarchy hold everyone down. Anyone successful works for the system or sent to prison or executed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The commies take the cake. Lemin is credited with approx 20M Stalin has 50 - 70M Uncle Mao - 70M - 80M Hitler in a distant 4th place at 11M. 6m Jews, 5M others. Jews like to claim the whole 11M. And they still want the dems to take all their guns. For pol pot, you need to count as a percentage of the country he slaughtered. Keep in mind, these are NOT deaths in military action. These are people that were killed, shot, starved, or worked to death. Edited January 13, 2020 by Rellik 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dric902 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Hitler industrialized the killing Stalin was ‘Hitler North’ Mao was ‘Hitler East’ Pol Pot was a gang leader . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
