This also happened in Ukraine

Yeah, it was heavily discussed here at the time. The snipers were firing on both protesters and security forces.

Happy New Year! Let’s keep this fight going!

That was an operation run by Paul Manafort and Tony Podesta, you will be hearing more about that in the MSM soon.

I see that the article has more references, but it opens with a huge red flag:

Italy’s 11th largest newspaper – Il Giornale

Eleventh largest isn't at all reassuring and it's a Berlusconi one. He's tight with Putin, even said the Crimea vote was democratic and visited him there.

ZeroHedge, every time.

But there are better references further down, the (whole) BBC story is interesting.

I see ZeroHedge as a faulty extension cord that keeps fatally electrocuting people. (Eventually) I'd get rid of it.

I couldn't care less if you trust me or not, that you care enough to stalk me because I used an alternative analogy for ZeroHedge is cute and good enough for me.

I guess I should throw that back at you, saying I look forward to all your Russian talking points or something? Or more of them?

Yes "muh Russia," I'm sorry if that upsets you but it seemed relevant to the topic at hand. ZeroHedge does agitprop and peddles a load of Russian propaganda, this post is about the Iranian regime being totally honest, and I remembered that post about Russia supporting the regime there.

Maybe I should just do this instead: Hahahaha...fuckin hilarious...muh MSM..

Yup, this guys tricks are pretty limited. It's funny that they make themselves so easy to spot - they are always about that 'muh Russia' haha.

FYI brother,

And to reiterate, Rule 13 only applies to link posts (including image posts), not self posts, so you don't need to be reporting those.

there is more than a precedent, unidentified snipers are the asset of choice in this new millenium as far as empire building goes, we've seen it all over the Arab springs as well as in Ukraine

well it worked in maidan guess it was time for round #2

precedent for this happening

Great place and time to remind everyone that the shooters (snipers) in Maidan (Ukraine) were actually not from the government, but from the US-backed opposition that took power after the coup. We wouldn’t know if it wasn’t for a leaked phone call between the Estonian FM and Catherine Ashton.

Here is a case btw where I’ll readily accept the information was leaked by the Russians. But insofar as it’s the truth, I’ll gladly accept it (when authoritarian propagandists rely on the truth to further their agenda you know the opposite side is quite the evil one).

IranProtests: Video captures moment #Iran protesters confront security forces, also showing a man firing shots among the crowd http://ara.tv/mftu9

http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2017/12/31/VIDEOS-Khamenei-poster-torched-by-Iran-protesters-shots-fired-among-crowd.html

In the video you see a man carrying a pistol raise the weapon in the air and fire two shots while standing in the middle of a crowd of apparently unarmed protesters.

This is another way they get police/security forces to fire on crowds. This definitely happened in Ukraine, with plenty of footage showing armed men mingling with unarmed protesters firing shots at police.

It may very well be that the police fired on the protesters, but that still doesn't mean that it was unjustified and unprovoked.

Winner winner chicken dinner

This is a common tactic. Not only did it happen in Ukraine, but also in the largely manufactured protests against Hugo Chavez.

Though it's not stated in the video clip, I remember seeing a documentary saying unknown snipers shot at both the police and protestors at the same time, escalating violence.

Hey AIS, yes, I was referring to Venezuela. In retrospect I wasn't very clear about that!

Seems like a common CIA coup tactic.

Gladio is on the loose...find 'em and hang 'em! USraelSaud is in your midst! Route them out! Every major conflict ever is by the NWO design.

To you and yours as well! Happy Healthy Safe New Year!

People have swallowed the lies about Iran for so damned long but I remain hopeful! Optimistic!

I believe there was also "sniper incident" tactics used during protests in Ukraine a few years ago as well, I believe was also exposed eventually to be a false flag style operation.

Yes, in Kiev, Ukraine.

here's a few posts from my bookmarks about various instances of mystery snipers. Ever since this Iran business began I've just been waiting for the rooftop snipers. Wish I had saved more links, I know I really went looking for these a while back, but oh well, I still have a few.
