A Second Wave of Popular Anger Is Building in Iran

“A new wave of popular anger is rising in Iran, as people enraged by last month’s mass killings of protesters vent their antipathy for the regime despite the risks of a continuing crackdown,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Mourning families are shouting antiregime slogans at funerals and memorials. Students are refusing to sing patriotic songs at school. Medical workers are publicly condemning the arrests of colleagues who treated people injured in the protests. And groups of local activists are openly calling for the fall of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.”
