Interesting events and updates:

* At least 29 killed and over 1,200 arrested nationwide in nine days of protests

Where are the speeches from western countries in favor of the protestors?
Where are the UN meetings?
Why wouldn’t nations in Europe join Canada for example and help the momentum by finally designating the IRGC as terrorists?
