In response to "Almost as big a crowd as Trump’s inauguration for the Iranian funeral. -- (link)" by Volnelk

And you are listening to this Amir-jerk? You think he is representative of liberal-minded Iranians? Hardly. Seems like propaganda to me.

The ex-Iranians here in Norway who comment on the matter, seem quite happy US took out the butcher Soleimani and also note how when the Iranian authorities slaughtered some few thousands of protestors recently, it received little media coverage.

What kind of Iranians does people here actually believe mourned a regime-loyal, allegedly psychopathic butcher like Soleimani.. ?

Also, there are over 70M people in Iran. So even if, say, 6M were out in support of the slain general, that would not be so very much (less than 10%) compared to the overall population.

  - Right.. So, this is where I stop taking you seriously. This is too stupid and too programmed - no actual, independent thinking involved. -- nm - Facto Jan 5, 10:54 2
    - I can see I was too irritable/disdainful above, here. Perhaps it was meant only as a light-hearted, humorous comment. -- nm - Facto Jan 5, 14:19

Just seems like a lot of people. All I was saying. - Volnelk Jan 5, 10:42 2
- I just thought up that number, as an example. It never hurts to have some perspectives on proportions. Knowing there are over 70N Iranians should be - Facto Jan 5, 10:53 1
