Everyone knows their elections are rigged but so are the elections in the US so what does that even say? We just accept it because our leaders aren't as bad. It was even in mainstream media about the voter fraud in the Republican primary in the US election, so of course the election is rigged in Iran.I don't think we should use stories like this to invade another country though because they are no threat to us, it's just another target for our military complex.
The ongoing street protests have been viewed as remarkable in a country where anti-government sentiment is not looked upon kindly by those in power.
