[Peace-discuss] [ufpj-activist] Mazda Majidi: What to make of Iran’s demonstrations

[Carl G. Estabrook]

That seems right. The anti-government protests in Iran look like what is called ‘populism’ elsewhere. Those are the local equivalent of Trump voters in the streets…

The US has been torturing Iran for more than 60 years, and that’s even more important now that Iran draws increasingly close to Russia (and China).

The bedrock of US fp for more than century has been to prevent the economic integration of Eurasia, under whatever auspices.

That was the goal of the ‘carrot’ of the Iranian nuclear deal. Opposition to the deal in the US is a difference over tactics, not strategy, which remains what it’s always been.
