Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, is speaking out for the first time about the violent unrest spreading across his country with a defiant rejection of theats from America.
Street protests that started almost a week ago are growing and numerous deaths have been reported.
In remarks aired on Iranian television on Saturday, Mr. Khamanei said rioters should be “put in their place” and pledged that the Islamic Republic “will not yield to the enemy.”
Young women in Iran are DEFYING the regime’s morality police, forced hijab, and are singing in the streets.
THIS is what true resistance looks like. Where are the western leftists now who supported HAMAS and Gaza?? Why are they all silent?!?
FREE THE PEOPLE OF IRAN! pic.twitter.com/mQvZ0P7mZx
