Iran Protests Enter Fifth Week, Mullahs Kill Another 16 Year Old Girl, Protesters Switch Threats To "Kill, Death To Mullahs"

 The protests in Iran have entered their fifth week. Oil industry workers have also gone on strike. They have been joined by lawyers and now some doctors in hospitals across the country are going on strike.

The ayatollahs have already blinked. After five weeks they have killed "only" about 200 protesters including about 23 young teenaged school girls. Opposition websites say the death toll is above 400. In 2009 the Ayatollahs killed over 1,500 protesters in just a few days.

Here is a recent video showing the young Iranians protesting in Iran. I notice something interesting - the chanting is simply 'Kill the mullahs' and 'Death to Khamenei'.

Plus the crowd is following the Shiah style of the mourning ceremonies during Ashura ie the 10th day of the month of Muharram where Shias lament the death of Hussein with chest thumping and melancholy chanting.   

Here are Indian Shiahs (possibly Punjabi) doing the lament of the Ashura.

 

You can see some similarities between the two videos.

In other words the Iranian protesters are taking up the Shiah style of whipping up passions and emotions. They are demonising the ayatollahs. The ayatollahs have become the devil.

I have said this before - the ayatollahs in Iran will suffer a very painful end.
