Nuclear Archive Revelation Stirs Internal Iranian Dissent
(Maariv-Jerusalem Post) Oz Rosenberg - After Prime Minister Netanyahu's presentation on Monday of Iran's nuclear archive, Dr. Thamar Eilam Gindin, an expert on Iran at Shalem College and Haifa University's Ezri Center for Iran and Persian Gulf Studies, reported on Wednesday about reactions on Iranian social media. "I saw a large number of people who asked not to call Iran the Islamic Republic. There were many calls from people who said: 'They do not represent the Iranian people, they took us hostage.'" "People in Iran feel insecure, their currency is weak and the economy is shaky. There are many who oppose the regime." They also very much want their regime to fall. There are many keyboard warriors, but when it comes to taking to the streets, they are scared.
