Mango Lassi hall putsch

I know we've been hearing about a more liberal Iran for a long time, but the suddenness of this stuff has me very suspicious. Kids are going to get killed when these turn to violent riots, and I'm not sure anyone has any chance of overturning a ruler that Khameni himself has said God's cool with. I mean, God voted. What else is there to say?

It just seems like somebody had this clever idea, "hm, so dropping 2,000lb bombs on mud huts didn't work so good next door... let's try a sort of kent-state-meets-bay-of-pigs-with-some-ollie-north-thrown-in-shit over there." All this is missing is a JATO-equipped Herc.

What a clusterfuck. Poor bastards.
