The Left’s Astroturfed Pro-Iran Protests Are Underway, and They’re Just As Bad As You’d Expect

We’re not surprised that the Left is marching in favor of the Iranian regime; they hate President Trump more than they supposedly oppose repressive dictatorships.

Pro-Iran protests have popped up outside the White House and in New York City, with conveniently pre-printed “Hands Off Iran” signs.

This writer is old enough to remember when leftists were wearing “Hands off Iran” pins during the George W. Bush administration.

According to the Washington Post, these include groups like Code Pink and the Palestinian Youth Movement, so it’s the usual suspects causing problems again.

Anti-ICE and Antifa also made an appearance.

The New York protests are taking place in Times Square.

And moving toward Central Park.

The protesters did obtain a permit, according to the NYPD.

According to Stoll, about 100 protesters were in Times Square.

And in case you were wondering, the protesters have no idea what they’re talking about.

“Iran isn’t fascist,” the protester says. “Studying political ideologies, you understand what fascism is, and it’s not Iran. Because Iran…Ayatollah Khamenei’s rule was achieved through a revolution; it was, in effect, a coup d’état. Fascism rises electorally and democratically, and then turns on its constituents. Ayatollah’s regime is not fascist in nature.”

Yikes.

But he admits making women wear a hijab is “theocracy,” not fascism, but the United States has a fascist government. Because reasons, of course.

As Townhall reported earlier, the vast majority of GOP voters back this move, and Canada and Australia applauded the strikes.

Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump and his administration’s bold leadership, we are respected on the world stage, and our enemies are being put on notice.
