Thousands of people have taken to the streets of Tehran to protest at the US decision to back out of the nuclear deal.
Hordes of enraged demonstrators could be seen pouring petrol on US flags and burning them as the protests became increasingly vitriolic in the Iranian capital.
The mass protests began as Iran denied firing rockets at Israel on Thursday - claiming the allegations were invented by Israeli politicians to justify attacks on Syria.

When does Europe have street protests against Trump and the deal?
ReplyDeleteEurope had 16 months to address Trumps concerns.
Europe knew full well Obama’s signature was all the deal had in the US. They knew the Senate was overwhelmingly against with at least 56 no votes including Chuck Schumer Senate Minority leader.
Europe knew Iran never signed the deal!
Europe knew the inspections were limited to sites the Iranians declared leaving military bases off limits.
Never was so much made about so little.
In the end Europe is so eager to humiliate Trump from the English to the Germans, I expect they will retaliate by cozying up with China.
it is a faulty deal that still is better than no deal...with the deal, we can ALL (all the nations signing onP) impose sanctions for violations. Without the treaty for us, the sanctions will only be from us and that impacts our allies and is still much less effective if effective at all
