Iran changes its chant: 'Death to the Dictator'

Iran's economy is as sluggish as a slug on quaalude and the people are no longer calling for the death of America or the death of Israel. Now they're calling for the death to the dictators, Rouhani and Khamenei, as President Trump's sanctions are having their desired effect.

Protests like these are unheard of in Iran but people are clearly fed up with the Islamic Republic's ruling class. It's possible that big changes are on the horizon.

Videos covertly taken inside Iran and shown on social media show thousands of angry protesters marching in the streets. One video taken at the end of a soccer match shows the crowd leaving the stadium yelling "death to the dictator! Death to Khamenei! Death to Rouhani!" and "Islamic regime must get lost!" according to what is probably a poor translation by a Middle East analyst.

A video in Tehran shows scores of buses lined up as far as the eye can see, with the Middle East analyst explaining that the government has refused to pay back its debts to a contractor that provides fuel for the buses, leaving them and the thousands of passengers stranded, unable to get to their jobs.

One bus driver is heard saying, "Look at our situation. We've been waiting for 24 hours. How dare the regime send money to Hezbollah and Palestine when the country is in trouble. Our revolution's aim wasn't to support dirty [Hezbollah leader] Hassan Nasrallah and we can be oppressed here. Enough."

The Trump administration restored sanctions which constrict the money Iran normally uses to fund "terrorists, dictators, proxy militias, and the regime's own cronies," according to a Trump official.

Trump signed the executive order Monday restoring some of the sanctions that were lifted under Obama in 2015 when the nuclear deal was signed and pallets of money was sent to Iran "to appease the alligator."

Trump has assured us that in November, sanctions on Iran's oil and gas and banking sector will be restored. An administration official said the U.S. will aggressively enforce these sanctions and even allied businesses who still do business with Iran will be subjected to penalties.

Trump tweeted that he is "asking for WORLD PEACE, nothing less!"

In an affront to President Trump, the EU's foreign policy chief is urging "increased business with Iran," proving just how much the UE sucks and how right Brexit is.
