The location was Iran, and if recent history is a guide, some of the protesters daring to challenge the oppressive regime will die.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The noble people of Iran should participate in the peaceful demonstration with calm and resolve,&#8221; declared the protestors\u2019 website. In addition to urging nonviolence, it warned of government agents infiltrating to create disturbances in order to derail the protest.<\/p>\n<p>Now, by all accounts, the regime was taken by surpriseby the tens of thousands of citizens who showed up to voice their opposition to the Islamic radicals who\u2019ve hijacked their nation since1979. Tear gas, batons, and arrests could not hold back the protesters, who ignored a ban imposed by Iran\u2019s government&#8211; the same government that praised the protest in Egypt.<\/p>\n<p>After Iran\u2019s earlier protests, in 2009, two people were hanged, and many others imprisoned. Opposition leaders were placed under house arrest. Every protester who participated this time had to know thatthere was a chance that they, too, could be hauled off to jail or killed, and yet,they came.<\/p>\n<p>The yearning in the souls of the Iranian peopleis the same passion that led our Founders to risk their homes andtheir wealth and their lives. It\u2019s called &#8220;the quest for freedom&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch It!
