LOL!

Its directly related! The title of this thread starts with "Protesters rally across America...".

I was trying to be subtle and diplomatic in my initial comment, but I'll be more blunt now.

Its blatant hypocrisy for Americans to be critical of Iran for what they did when the US did exactly the same thing, in similar circumstances, and also with a significant level of denial and attempted justification. Where are the protests in America for the anniversary of the shooting down of Flight 655? Do Americans not want to hold their own government to account for killing hundreds of people like they do for Iran?

Of course Americans are allowed a double standard, its the heart of American values... /s

Your own comment is Whataboutism in the highest degree, as you brought the atrocities that the current Iranian regime are inflicting on their people into this discussion - when the thread has nothing to do with that. But I'm guessing that the hypocrisy that you show for this too will also be lost on you, and right now you are getting angry at me, when you should be looking in the mirror for the cause of that anger.

If the protesters were raising the current issues of the horrible things that the Iranian government are doing to its own people then I'd be 100% behind it, and would not have included my comment, but that's not what the protests are about.
