Global Events & Politics Überthread

We absolutely should be doing everything possible to help the protesters coordinate. This is too important of an event to sit idly by like the last administration did.

We should be smuggling them weapons into the country so they could at least defend themselves.

Also, what would happen if we were to smuggle a couple of "dirty bombs" in? You know, what's good for the goose sort of thing?

Will Google have the balls to lift their restrictions in Iran so the people can communicate?

Google meanwhile has been urged to lift internet restrictions in the country.
Dr Steven Murdoch, a security researcher in the Computer Science Department, University College London, told Sky News that Google blocks users from Iran from accessing many of its services because of US sanctions.
But as a result, people have encountered difficulties trying to use counter-censorship apps such as Signal, which was set up to bypass blocking by disguising itself amongst Google's services.
NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden later tweeted: 'Many US politicians say they want to help Iranian protesters. If they're serious, one phone call could get @Google to restore millions of protesters' ability to connect and organize

People who expect Google to do good for goodness' sake aren't familiar with Google's business practices. Snowden should know better.
 
For the record what's happening in Iran is what I want to happen here. It's well past time we get the torch and pitchforks and take down this corrupt government. We should extradite them to countries they have committed international crimes in like Yemen or Columbia. Let them rot in a foreign prison for the terrorizing the people of those countries.
 
BTW - Turkey has supported a policy of allowing 9 year old girls to be married and pregnant.

Yes - Some cultures are better than others.

Western liberals also don’t give a crap that slavery is alive all over africa. You would think the liberals who are so upset about what happened here would want to make sure slavery is rooted out all over the world. But no... they’re more concerned about a Christian not baking a cake for gays (they could had gone elsewhere to get a cake) than black kids in chains who will never be free

Western liberals like Islam more than Iranians.

See, now thats a guy who deserves some refugee status. Its not just about muslims. Religion is toxic and is used to keep people hating and close minded. The only religion I am cool with is one that preaches minding your own GD business. If a core part of your religion says you need to go hate on people who dont agree with you then **** your religion. If your religion promotes itself by helping people in need in exchange for a lecture or two then go right ahead.

The real reason western liberals are not covering the Iran protests as they should be.
