Exploring leftist silence on Iranian protests and their anti-American stance.
The streets of America are full of people protesting the idea that the United States needs to have borders. They are protesting against the notion that the United States is a sovereign nation where the government should decide who can come in and who should be kept out.
They’re also implying by their protests that 11 million people who have entered the country without permission should be given a pass and allowed to stay.
They will say that their protests are not about immigrants or immigration, but about how Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is carrying out its constitutionally mandated duties.
Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Iranians are flooding the streets of more than 200 cities in 26 of the country’s 31 provinces, putting their lives on the line and demanding change.
Everyone, anywhere who loves freedom and justice is supporting the protesters. Everyone except Western leftists and their media mouthpieces.
