A bombshell new report from CBS News suggests that the Iranian Government has murdered between 12,000 and 20,000 protesters since the ongoing, national revolt against it began.
“Information trickling out of Iran on Tuesday suggests that a crackdown by authorities to end more than two weeks of widespread anti-government protests has likely been far more deadly than activists outside the country have reported,”



As long as the US doesn’t march in and say “We’ll help you with your oil and write your laws for you.”
At this point I suspect it’s less about wanting the oil under Iran and more about not wanting China to have it.
Or access to Russia for a coming war.
