The Persians Are Revolting

 

It looks as though the Mullahs are about to go down in an Iran which will soon become Persia again. Thousands, some report millions, are on the streets protesting an Islamist regime which rose to power with the unholy help of Marxists in 1979. Nioh Berg reports on social media:

I can't overstate how monumental tonight is, as someone who has followed every major uprising since 2009.

The islamic regime has always fallen back on two things when pressured into a corner: 

1) Communication blackout

2) Mass murder

This has always worked in the past, silencing Iranians into going home battered, scared and traumatised. 

This time however, Iranians responded to both 1 and 2 by coming out in even greater numbers. This has NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. I tell you this as someone who saw the images of Neda Agha-Soltan's dying breaths in 2009, who saw the 2017 uprising crushed, who saw the 2019 November blackout and massacre, who saw the 2022 uprising fizzle into nothing after relentless oppression.

Not only has this movement not died out - for the first time there is a commanding leader and a guiding voice who makes calls and decisions for his people. He is the Shah of Iran, and the vast majority of Iran has proven to want him back on the throne. Nobody can deny this any longer.

And now, we have a unified Iran defying regime blackouts AND regime massacres, organising and fighting back, inflicting real and devastating casualties. There has been nothing like this ever. The regime did not expect people to come back out.

I repeat: This wasn't supposed to happen. This is a living nightmare for the mullahs and all their cheerleaders.

I don't know what happens next. All I know is this has moved from an uprising to a revolution.

 

You'll be unsurprised to know that protestors are burning down mosques, torching government buildings and going hard in the streets. You'll also be amazed to know that the BBC hasn't covered this revolution; surely they wouldn't want to offend the Islamo-Marxist vote on their home turf.

Thanks to Elon Musk and Starlink, the revolution's televised on X, the same platform Kier Starmer and his merry band of Crescent Moon Bolsheviks want to ban in the UK. Odd that, ain't it.

Why do you think the good Iranian people — fighting for their freedom (and indirectly our freedom) — did this?

Me? I never thought I'd say this, given ancestral rivalry stretching back to the days of Alexander the Great, but Godspeed to the Persians.

The Shah of Iran, Reza Pahlavi, issued this request tonight on social media:

Mr. President, this is an urgent and immediate call for your attention, support, and action. Last night you saw the millions of brave Iranians in the streets facing down live bullets. Today, they are facing not just bullets but a total communications blackout. No Internet. No landlines.

Ali Khamenei, fearing the end of his criminal regime at the hands of the people and with the help of your powerful promise to support the protesters, has threatened the people on the streets with a brutal crack down. And he wants to use this blackout to murder these young heroes.

I have called the people to the streets to fight for their freedom and to overwhelm the security forces with sheer numbers. Last night they did that. Your threat to this criminal regime has also kept the regime’s thugs at bay. But time is of the essence. The people will be on the streets again in an hour. I am asking you to help.

You have proven and I know you are a man of peace and a man of your word. Please be prepared to intervene to help the people of Iran.

Following the Pahlavi's statement protests intensified, with many of those taking to the streets in their thousands chanting for the Shah's return.

 

Situation developing, unless you're a vastly overpaid member of the Rainbow Commie BBC.
