    To get a sense of what's going on in Iran, it'd be preferable to hear from the protesters themselves rather than American political operatives providing interpretations of the protests

        Even without the regime change motivations, these same political operatives aren't going to tell us why Iranians are protesting because they don't want Americans to relate and get any funny ideas to start doing the same.

        There's a risk that the concerns of the Iranian protestors will mirror the concerns of the American people. How would THAT look?!

        Not so one can legitimately expect the protesters themselves would be authentic, genuine and sincere in what they told "us". Expecting them to be so is a bit naive.

        That probably would be a little like if foreign countries based their view of the US on what BLM protestors said or something. Sure to be passionate, but...

        That's similar to what the Iranians say. 'That crazy block type text with lines and dots'.

        I think it is really rich that Trump tweeted that the Iranian Government should listen to the voices of its people when he ignores the voices of a majority of Americans. I believe that we are currently one 2008 type recession short of seeing the same thing in this country.
