Demonstrators waved flags symbolizing martyrdom and held up portraits of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Makes one wonder what's going on. It was only a few years ago rioters were against the leadership of Iran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard a commentator (Robert Plant) on WMAL yesterday say that it's probably an issue of the regime in Iran sending the supposed protestors to gain access to the embassy in order to survey the British intelligence. This would give the regime opportunity to see who was actually responsible for the two recent explosions that stalled their nuclear bomb program yet again. Sounds plausible to me.

England has expelled Iranian diplomats and closed the Iranian Embassy in London. Iran is becoming more isolated. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
