Mick Wallace comments on Iran protests

massive popular protests are one thing and spraying a market place with automatic gunfire are two completely different things.

While I’m here anyone know how women and the LBGQT community are faring in Taliban controlled Afghanistan?

The media seem reluctant to show the same ‘concern’ for Afghan women under the Taliban as they do for Iranian women. Why is this?

Are the Taliban now the ‘good guys’?

They are smart enough to know there are enough stupid people who will support them if they say stupid things. And the more stupid the things, the stronger that support will be.

It's like when you get a spam email full of typos and spelling mistakes. That's sometimes done deliberately as the spammer wants only complete idiots to reply. Not half idiots who are slow enough that they respond at the start but might cop on later. They want full idiots.

At this stage I would not be surprised if Mick and Clare became flat earthers. They would argue black is white at this stage.

It's called 'whataboutery' and is akin to saying 'but what about the hungry babies in Africa?' in response to everything.

That far away? Ah well. Time to buy lots of popcorn

they have to be making money from the positions they are taking. Russia are great, the Iranian people are terrible, Ukraine deserve it... fooking hell. An utter embarrassment to the country, and a pox on every arse that votes them in.

Wallace and Daly are vile human beings.

China is the other great Socialist hope, Russia is a dividend issue for many on the left.

I didn't mention Iran, the alternative to the Taliban in Afghanistan is the Islamic State.

Well considering you are derailing a thread about Iran (official name Islamic Republic of Iran) you can see how this would be misinterpreted?
