Western media are ignoring a revolution in Iran

Something profound is happening throughout Iran, and the Western mass media are just not reporting it.

For some time now, protests by ordinary Iranians have become a daily routine.  These protesters include workers who have not been paid wages or have become redundant; savers who have lost their savings in Iran's many quasi-banks, which are infested with corruption and embezzlement; people concerned about the environmental disaster Iran is fast becoming; people protesting rising prices; retired pensioners whose retirement funds have been plundered by successive administrations; and low-income people who can no longer make ends meet.

These protesters are across the spectrum of Iranian society.  The protests are getting larger, and their chants are becoming more radical.

    I sure hope Trump can achieve better results than obummer did in 2009, I'm not hopeful America is about as isolationist as after Vietnam, particularly in the ME.  There are no easy solutions here,  Our two main adversaries, geopolitically, Russia and China are both major investors in that lunatic mullocracy. 
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

The irony is the media which is secretly assisting Iran's govt in not reporting its unrest, will be the first entity eliminated if our own country ever degraded into Islamic law. 

It would not be eliminating Jews in this country, it would be the media to control its objectives.

Part of that is a lot of Americans just don't like Iranians.  Too many of us remember the parades, the dancing in the streets, the thousands pumping their fists in the air proclaiming "Death to America"" as our Embassy personnel were marched off in cuffs and blindfolds to be held until Ronald Reagan was inaugurated.  444 days, it was.

I don't like the Government, but I don't hate the people.  In a society like Iran you have to participate in protest or get arrested.
