The Twitter accounts for @PersianKiwi and @Change_for_Iran have been dead for over a year. What is the word for "disappeared" in Farsi?

1. Sounds like Iran has a real problem.
Sounds like the Iranian people don't like it and as of recent have boldly shown their disapproval.

Sounds like there may be a second Iranian revolution in the future.

I heartily recommend that all foreign parties stay the fuck out of it.

3. Motion called for a vote
The motion has been made and seconded.

All those in favor of nations not involving themselve militarily in the coming second revolution in Iran say Aye.

He forgot that kids rebel.

6. It's not even that they rebel so much as they take you at your word.
Children, little children, believe their elders. They expect what they are told to be true. When they find out it is not true, they demand that you make it true. I grew up a child of the nation that saved the world. We were the good guys who didn't shoot prisoners, torture, ....we were the boy scouts. And then they gave us Viet Nam.

It's not rebellion to insist that your nation live up to what it told you it was, is it? The young Iranians simply demanded that the Ayatollahs and Ahmadinejad live up to the principles of the revolution that deposed the Shah. That's more traditionalist than rebellious, really.
