Iran massacre... how many killed, disappeared and jailed? 30,000?

6. Iran is a main bastion of arch-conservative, jihadist Islamism

The Iraqi Regime (the Islamic Republic) is to Iran what the Taliban are to Afghanistan, a stupid, violent, patriarchal, arch-conservative dictatorship. All progressives and liberals should consider the Islamic Republic a main enemy on Earth. If the Islamic Republic falls and is replaced by a liberal democracy, the world would be safer. Also, other arch-conservative, violent patriarchies like Hamas and the Taliban would be on notice that their time is up.

I was very disappointed in NPR a couple of days ago. I listen every day, but they seriously dropped the ball with Iran. Yes, they did at least address the heightening tensions and the brinksmanship on getting a nuclear deal. But, when it came time to talk about the protesters who have been very brutally murdered we get this:

As we know, the Iranian security forces crushed those protests last month and killed many people. We just don't know if we'll see another uprising.

They "killed many people." It was "Iranian security forces." SMH.
