    Regarding politics, uncensored…

    …since the US always maintains strike plans for Iran, passivity on part of Trump leads me to conclude that when promising to assist protesters if killing starts, he lied - he had no intent or plan of assisting them. That’s pretty bad.

    The naked truth is that Iranian people need weapons, explosives and communication devices. Some amount can be provided by militant underground groups, but those are mostly working in the countryside and mountainous places - outside the Persian speaking central regions. I trust that ordinary smugglers are already working at tenfold speed. A foreign state could do much to help in the short term, but so far, foreign states have been letting the Islamic Republic of Iran uncontrolledly kill its people for 5 days in a row. :(
