Israel Hayom—Iran’s Guard says it defeated anti-government unrest:
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard said on Sunday the country’s people and security forces had defeated unrest fomented by foreign enemies, as parliament and key security officials met to discuss the boldest challenge to the clerical establishment since 2009.

Meanwhile, thousands of government supporters staged rallies for the fifth day in a backlash against the biggest anti-government protests since widespread unrest in 2009 over alleged election fraud.
State television showed live pictures of rallies in several cities, including central Shahr-e Kord where hundreds, many clutching umbrellas, had gathered despite heavy snowfall.
“Death to America,” “Death to Israel,” “Death to Britain,” “Death to seditionists,” the demonstrators chanted.
More than a week of unrest has seen 22 people die and more than 1,000 arrested, according to Iranian officials.

SnyderTalk Comment:
So much for openness and freedom. The Iranian Guard sounds to me a lot like “liberal progressives” in the U.S. They tolerate nothing that doesn’t fit with their perverted perspectives. They want to defeat opposing views by force with intense violence.
They have no idea what will happen when the sane among us have had enough.

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)
