UK an extra chicken was in my fridge this AM must have been spirited out of Tehran by local US Airmen...

Seriously nobody is forcing all those young Iranians to protest. Speed you do them a disservice blaming the west. It is their election and their country and in this case there is nothing credible out there suggesting the US has in any way pushed the demonstrations. US has meddled plenty over the years, no doubt. They do not appear to be meddling right now. Barack resisting calls from the righ-wing nuts in US to do so and continues to say things like "recognise the sovereignty of Islamic Republic of Iran" meaning CURRENT GOVERNMENT.
