Iran closes main bazaar amid arrests and protests

As authorities scrambled to stop Iran's currency from falling further

DW: Iran's central bazaar has been shut in a dramatic move amid arrests and protests. This comes after Iran's currency dipped to a record low. The main bazaar in the Iranian capital, Tehran, was forcibly closed on Wednesday as authorities scrambled to stop Iran's currency from falling further after it had already tumbled to a record low. Hundreds of police entered the currency exchange district of Ferdowsi, arresting unlicensed money changers and ordering licenced bureaux and shops to close >>>

"death to Khamenei"!

by Roozbeh_Gilani on

People shouting "death to khamnei" in demosntrations in Tehran today.

No doubt, factions at war within the fascist islamist regime would try to use todays fantastic demonstrations in Tehran to blame each other. But the slogans were political, targting the entire regime and clearly asking for Khamenei's death! 

"Personal business must yield to collective interest."

A reminder

by fullback on

For the past 30+ years i have described the similrities of the Islamist Occupiers of Iran to the Nazi take over of Germany in the 1930`s . time after time we have seem these similarities raise to the top and reveal themselves. A obsecure German priest said it best his name was MARTIN NIEMOLLER,it is in german , and english ... he said:
Als die Nazis die Kommunisten holten,
habe ich geschwiegen;
ich war ja kein Kommunist.

Als sie die Sozialdemokraten einsperrten,
habe ich geschwiegen;
ich war ja kein Sozialdemokrat.

Als sie die Gewerkschafter holten,
habe ich nicht protestiert;
ich war ja kein Gewerkschafter.

Als sie die Juden holten,
habe ich geschwiegen;
ich war ja kein Jude.

Als sie mich holten,
gab es keinen mehr, der protestierte.

ENGLISH version is :

When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

,When tey came for the Jews I remained scilent
I was not a Jew.

Now they have come for me ,and there are no one to Speak for me.
.

.
.
The facts are Clear and history have showed us those Groups who have stayed scilent for the past 33 years have been systematically harmed by the Islamist Occupiers of Iran . Noe is the Bazzari`s turn

its about time for these Hezbollahi merchants(BAZARI MOTHAR GHA...) to feel the pain in their pockets. It is the same bunch of VATANFROOSH who have served as Malijak for the Islamist occupiers of Iran. I hope they loose everything they have and the Sepah and The Basij ,hang them upside down.NO TEARS, Here for these Hezzbollahi BASTARDS.

IRI ECONOMY HAS COLLAPSED!

by tehran e Azad on

When you have whole bunch of animals running the country , this is what  happens! If it wasn't because of The ultra strong economy that IRI inherited from the shah, this economy would've collapsed in 1980. 

Now the only way out of this is IRI's collapse!

First off there will be no war on IRI from an outside attack

by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on

The sad thing is SK might be right that a Syria situation could happen sometime in Iran in the future, as the regime weakens.  The Iraqi Kurds are not giving help to Irani Kurds to help Iran liberate itself, they are openly wanting division wthin Iran, some extremists within Irans societies are also organizing with aims of separation Azari's, Balouchi's, MeK is being groomed to play a part, add to it legitimate causes like workers rights and womens emancipation,  US plans in supporting extreme elements and not the peoples legitimate democratic groups, who can win elections at the ballot box should make any intelligent person have concerns.  I will never support IRI, ever under any condition, though helping and using extremists is not a solution either.  At least if we are going for regime change, lets aim for better not worse extremists, which we see that the USA only cares to support.  Obama likely takes orders from the oil executives that purchased his seat, as his teams actions go against serving people honestly.

by nozarmahallati on

If wishing the destruction of the Islamic Republic of Iran is "jakeshi" according to suri, I wear the badge proudly.

The same "jakeshs" who are now 45-75 year old and took to the streets begining khomeini to come to Iran should go out and die for their children so that the new generation can grow up in 21st century not the 14th.

Oh Pleeeaaase Soosan Khanoom!

by The Prince on

 

 Enlighten me oh you Enlightened one.  Please tell me where you teach today’s politics in Cornell or Harvard, so I can take some of your classes or at least get the transcript?  I need to know the absolute truth, as you know it, about “what the case is in the world’s today”.  I think we should all wait for you to give us the real solution out of this predicament.  

In the meantime, we should tell the happy people in Iran to shut the hell up, and take it with a smile.  After all having HBO and Gap around the corner is nothing compared to having akhood, roxeh, geryeh, and Evin around the corner!!

 

Those damn westerners with their Evil plans. Just look at Turkey and see how they’re suffering.  We were way ahead of them 35 years ago, but Now,  we have Jamkaran and AN! Really, which one is better? Who wants to be like Turkey?

Chickens come home to roost

by divaneh on

The result of 34 years of mismanagement and theft is economic collapse of the country. This could be the end of IRI or maybe not.

It is now becoming clear as why Rafsanjanis were jailed. It is now very likely that Rafsanjani comes to the rescue of the regime. He will take advantage of the large internal support to abandon the nuclear project and IRI will be saved once more by the moderates. I just hope that there is enough internal division to prevent this from happening and bring the IRI to its damned end.

by Soosan Khanoom on

so mad ..  can't take it for the thirdworld and middle east countries to be bullied by the superpowers that is totally different that just being agianst a specific regime or being pro regime !! 

I can't see butterflies in the hell of this world anymore! How can you dance to the music of starvation and war?  

i am even mad at God for going through the pain of creation just for his chosen people to ruin the world!

Heartless is right and...

by The Prince on

You’re right. Families will suffer. There is a possibility of war.  Oh my God!  You mean people will suffer in Iran? Happy people of Iran suffering?  That is horrible!  You're right! People should not complain. How dare they?   The basiji will be sad!!

Let’s  make love, not war! Let’s start talking to AN (aka Madfoo)! Let’s reason with Geda Ali.  Bring that crippled lowlife some more drugs and keep him awake so we can peacefully engage him…   Oh yes, and when the plain clothes militia run over our sons in the street and rape our daughters over, and over and over again, right before torturing them to death,  let’s go out there and offer them tea, and them bring them to the table for some talk and shirini.  Yep! You are not delusional at all!

Now that the “lowlife, crippled, drug addict, piece of shit, sorry excuse of a leader,” Geda ali Mofangi is about to drop dead in a shithole somewhere, him and his crony IRI dogs, are barking louder and hitting their heads harder to the wall.

The people of Iran will soon eradicated these infestations and viruses called akhoonds. Live with it!!


Soosan Khanoom

WOW... Thanks Souri jan, but since you have been flagged

by Soosan Khanoom on

 I am reposting your comment but if you do not mind with a minor change.. 

" and I feel so bad for all the "heartless" in this site who are actually impatient to watch that screen TV which at the end will cost them the destruction  of their own families in Iran. 

Somehow these Neocons are all heartless ..  like their master Dick Cheney ..

Why flagging?

by Souri on

Why someone flagged my comment?

Was it that bad? I don;t think so.

If the ones who did the revolution in 79, were the jakesh, then the ones who desire another revolution today, are the jakesh, by definition, isn't it? What's wrongw with that?

Soosan Khanoom, You're so Negative!

Please think positive.

Very soon, the Regime will collapse. Iranians will have a bright future. Sun will shine, butterflies will be dancing and children will be singing.

And cats will be meowing and purrrring!

The end is near....

by Anonymous Observer on

Unless the IR's plan is to make Iranians live as they did back in the stone age (which is a credible possibility) no economy can withstand these sanctions.  

The IR will collapse.  It's only a matter of time.  Obama is playing his hand masterfully.
