Iran is on the cusp of a new revolution that’s seeing citizens take to the streets by the tens of thousands and shout, “Death to the dictator.”
Police have been firing on protesters to stem the tide of angry outbursts against the regime. But the citizens are swarming in protest anyway.

Since August 2, scores have been heard in the public sector shouting against the dictatorship, against the regime and against the leaders who’ve led the country to its dismal state of economic affairs.
More from the Sun:
THE Iranian regime has fired on protesters amid Trump’s economic sanctions – as an expert warns the country is on the brink of revolution.
Since August 2, people have taken to the streets of Iran chanting “Death to the Dictator” in angry demonstrations against the tyrannical government and the Islamic Republic’s sluggish economy.
Last Friday, a young man was shot dead by regime forces in Karaj outside of capital Tehran while a large number of protesters were arrested, according to resistance units.
On Sunday, demonstrators clashed with government forces across the city while chanting: “High prices and inflation, misery of the people.
“Death to high prices. Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. We are all together. Honorable Iranians, support, support.”
They also shouted: “Death or Freedom.”
Yesterday, US President Donald Trump imposed economic sanctions on Iran which had been lifted by the nuclear deal signed by Barack Obama.
Speaking with The Sun Online, Shahin Gobadi, a spokesman of National Council of Resistance for Iran, said disgruntled Iranians see revolution as the “only solution”.
He said: “The continuation and the frequency of the protests throughout 2018, despite the imposition of pervasive suppression and daily arrests and executions designed to intimidate the public, vividly reflects one reality.
“The growing sentiment among the Iranians that the only solution is a regime change by the people.
“The Iranian people and resistance units are more determined than ever to bring down the regime.
“The clerical regime is fast moving towards the precipice and the mullahs’ overthrow has never been so tangible and within reach.
“The world should realise this reality and should stand on the side of the Iranian people on their quest for freedom and democracy.”
The protests have spread to Isfahan, in central Iran, Mashhad, in the north east of the country and the southern city of Shiraz.
Another video from Tehran shows a row of parked buses lined up after the government refused to pay the drivers’ fuel – leaving thousands of Iranian’s stranded, reports Fox News.
In the clip, one of the drivers reportedly said: “Look at our situation. We’ve been waiting for 24 hours.
“How dare the regime sends 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.”
A senior Trump official told Fox News the restored sanctions are designed to constrict cash Iran uses to fund “terrorists, dictators, proxy militias, and the regime’s own cronies.”
Whether Iran should choose a North Korea-style photo-op with the US or abandon the Iran deal and increase its uranium enrichment remains a fiercely debated question within the Islamic Republic.
But everyone agrees something has to be done soon, as sporadic protests across the country of 80 million people only add to the pressure.
“The situation is not good right now; nothing is clear,” said Ebrahim Gholamnejad, a 41-year-old carpenter. “The economy is turning into a jungle.”
The newly imposed sanctions target US dollar financial transactions, Iran’s automotive sector, and the purchase of commercial planes and metals, including gold.
Even stronger sanctions targeting Iran’s oil sector and central bank are to be re-imposed in early November.
Trump tweeted on Tuesday: “Anyone doing business with Iran will NOT be doing business with the United States.

I hope the Main Stream media fake news reporters give up reporting on the Trump extermination camps on the Mexican border that don’t exist…
And flock to Iran and embed with the Iranian Republican guard to report on the tragedy inflicted by the USA on the peaceful Islamic regime…
Before all the reporters are rounded up and executed by the Mullahs.. ..

This is coming together nicely for Trump.
Could a revolution be happening over there by THEIR people?
They don’t want their money spent on other Muslim terrorists.
They need the money in their own country.

A 25 year old, 118 years ago wrote . . . “In every country where Muslims are in the minority they are obsessed with ‘the rule of law’ and minority rights. In every country where Muslims are the majority there is no ‘rule of law’ nor minority rights”
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia [rabies] in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.” — Winston Churchill (1899)
