Iranian security forces have detained at least 200 leaders of armed groups accused of organizing mass unrest, the Tasnim news agency reported, citing law enforcement sources.

During the operations, a large quantity of weapons, ammunition, grenades, and Molotov cocktails were seized from the hiding places of the pogromists, the agency said.

The arrest of leaders of the groups that used protesters as human shields, was one of the reasons for the decline in the intensity of the unrest on January 10, Tasnim noted.

    Yeah, we all know that, most of them also know that, they aren’t stupid.

    But it must suck to just sit down and let (Insert anti-socialist government opposed to the USA here) do what they want. Every time there’s a protest some young dumbasses must go “hey maybe this time it’ll not be a colour revolution and we’ll be in charge!” And the old comrades have to sit them down and talk them out of it

    We criticise, but it’s not like we have huge ideas about effective Praxis beyond “Just be an Anti-Imperialist Popular Front! There’ll be time for the Working Class when the USA is dead”
