Iran's supreme leader has for the first time publicly acknowledged that thousands of people were killed during recent protests. In a speech on Saturday, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said thousands had been killed, "some in an inhuman, savage manner". (BBC)
Here are the differences: One guy’s name is Donald Trump, and the other guy’s name is Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. One guy pretends to be a Christian, and the other guy pretends to be a Muslim.
Here are the similarities. Both guys desire to remain as Dictators. Both guys have little desire for the law. Originally, both guys catered to the lowest form of citizens living in their nations, those people who always knew they were worthless but were assured by both guys that the only reason they actually are worthless is because of someone else, in other words, both guys helped discover the scapegoat, THE OTHER.
Trump recently urged Iranian demonstrators to "keep protesting" and threatened military intervention if security forces kill them. At the same time, as Trump pretends to care about democracy in some place other than HIS AMERICA, Trump is threatening to send armed Troops to quell protestors in Minnesota. Both guys agree on one item, however, and that is the idea that free speech is bad for their lust for being a dictator!
