It’s no wonder the left is scrambling to make supporting the Iranian protests look like “warmongering” or imperialism. Their favorite terrorists, sorry I mean occupation resistance fighters, are square in the middle of things beating, raping and pillaging for the theocracy leftists want you to believe can be reasoned with. From JPost:
Palestinian Hamas members are helping the Iranian authorities crush street protests in support of reformist presidential candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi, two protesters told The Jerusalem Post On Tuesday.
They made their allegations as rioting on a scale unseen in Iran for nearly a decade continued in the wake of the elections and the allegations that the results were falsified. The protests have now spread from Teheran to other major cities.
Mousavi insisted on Tuesday that he would “protect” his supporters’ votes “at all cost, even if I am at risk.”
Shouting from a car roof to a roaring crowd of supporters, he declared: “The pillars of the revolution have been shaken… We must not be silent.”
Hamas formally welcomed incumbent Ahmadinejad’s ostensible reelection victory on Saturday. The Palestinian Islamist movement receives arms and funding from Iran, and its members have often received training there, including in terror tactics and weapons manufacture.
Despite a massive crackdown on dissent, thousands of protesters rallied again in Teheran on Tuesday night in support of Mousavi, following reports that up to 20 people had been killed by security forces at rallies across Iran against the disputed results of last week’s presidential elections.
Pro-government gunmen, reportedly opening fire on protesters, killed at least seven people on Monday night and others have been wounded.
State radio reports claimed that the victims were trying to loot weapons and to vandalize public property, and were shot by unidentified gunmen.
People claiming to have witnessed the shootings, however, insist that the victims were peaceful demonstrators, including students from Teheran university. “There are so many crimes, beatings and killings that have yet to be reported. When we fight back, it is for our own protection,” said a young man passing out flyers with the names of those he said were murdered Teheran University students.
The Iranians are tired of the Palestinian terrorists and are asking the world to deal with them:
“The most important thing that I believe people outside of Iran should be aware of,” the young man went on, “is the participation of Palestinian forces in these riots.”
Another protester, who spoke as he carried a kitchen knife in one hand and a stone in the other, also cited the presence of Hamas in Teheran.
On Monday, he said, “my brother had his ribs beaten in by those Palestinian animals. Taking our people’s money is not enough, they are thirsty for our blood too.”
It was ironic, this man said, that the victorious Ahmadinejad “tells us to pray for the young Palestinians, suffering at the hands of Israel.” His hope, he added, was that Israel would “come to its senses” and ruthlessly deal with the Palestinians.
When asked if these militia fighters could have been mistaken for Lebanese Shi’ites, sent by Hizbullah, he rejected the idea. “Ask anyone, they will tell you the same thing. They [Palestinian extremists] are out beating Iranians in the streets… The more we gave this arrogant race, the more they want… [But] we will not let them push us around in our own country.”
But I guess it would be racist or Islamiphobic for me to agree. But this is the true face of Hamas, those “freedom fighters” the left wants you to support. Hamas is nothing more than a paramilitary criminal enterprise that should be wiped off the face of this earth.

Rob Taylor,
Why does this not surprise me?
Actually I heard about this before. Its sad really. I feel sorry for people in Iran who want genuine reform and secularization, but have no where to go. I’d hate to be in their shoes.
I’m sure Hamas terrorists are well behind beating up Iranians. I wonder how could “Libertarians” like those at Lewrockwell.com pretend to be for a smaller government, but don’t mind Iranians getting beaten up by their government?
I guess they prefer this form of totalitarianism. Oh, btw, they are also lying on who killed the Kennedy brothers, recycling the disinformation coming from the Cuban Communist Party mouth-Granma International which a variety of Western Leftist supporters of the Kennedys attempt to claim the CIA was behind the assassinations.

That’s a good question.
