in Iraq and Lebanon, where "people from all walks of life are protesting, sunni shia, christian etc" But lo! In Iraq they aren't burning the stars and stripes, but protesting against all foreign forces in the country, namely the Iranians! The Iraqis have no money and no services not because the Iranians have taken them, but because the Yanks and their Kurdish mates have cut off that part of the country and made f**ing billions selling the oil into Europe and Israel. And in Lebanon for some reason in the end the protests have coalesced into opposition to Hezbollah... BTW, Iranians love Coke, even though they make it themselves; it's the only time I've drunk the sh**te since I was a kid, given to me at a meal in Iran!
