2. "protesters" my ass
ari ,   israel   (11.29.11)
protesters do not throw fire bombs and torch documents. that is the act of a violent mob
3. UK EMBASSY IRAN
adam ,   london   (11.29.11)
A bunch of lunatic Kids took over a Country in 1979 and this is the result. The whole World will be held hostage to this lot and the filth they are creating unless they are stopped. Sixty five million Iranians would love to be rid of them.
4. UK Embassy IRAN
Adam ,   London   (11.29.11)
1979 all over again, strings being pulled by the same people. Hopefully no hostages, We can sure that is what they were after. Muslims love a hostage
5. All Western ebassies, leave Iran fast !!
Nora Tel Aviv   (11.29.11)
Can one imagine furious British folks reacting back by burning down the Iranian flag and by entering their embassy in London? Perhaps it should be done. But Westerners are unable to hate back.
6. Not "hate" back
Jewish Patriot ,   Galut   (11.29.11)
They aren't able to fight back, lol...
7. Iranian embassy staff
homer jones ,   nyc usa   (11.29.11)
This time the EU should throw all Iranian diplomatic staff in jail. No hostage nonsense again!
8. Ahmadinejad invited Britain to negotiation table but
Salma ,   Palestine   (11.29.11)
in his own way ; )
9. How undiplomatic...LOLLLLLLLLL
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (11.29.11)
10. u can't "protest" in iran without approval of the ayatolahs
david ,   new york   (11.29.11)
look what iran did the the pro-democracy protests. the guys attacking the british embassy are the regime's bullies. the same plainclothes bullies use to beat up pro-democracy protestors
11. Lawlessness the norm
Dan ,   Florida   (11.29.11)
Just as the Iranians held American captive for 444 days now again the Iranians have shown the world that they care noting for law, order, diplomacy or being truthful. There can be no doubt that Iran is developing a nuke and will use it. It is time for the entire International community to castrate the Iranian faux religious so called leaders and the whack job Ahmadinejad. Failing action from the International Community, America and Israel should do the job alone. It is time to bring the Arab world out of a 7th century medieval existence and into the 21st century life to enjoy the bounty God gave us.
12. 7. That's a wise idea.
Ypip ,   Canada   (11.29.11)
Apparently, Iranian authorities have also looted sensitive U.K. intelligence documents due to the riot. (I definately doesn't appear to be a rally)
13. De-ja vu.
leo ,   usa   (11.29.11)
14. This is an Act of War against Britain
Winston ,   England   (11.29.11)
Very bad move Iran, I fully expect British Trafalgar class Nuclear submarines to be programming their missiles with major military and political targets in Iran this very minute, goodbye Aym-a-dinner-jacket and the rest of the Ayatollah scum - you just did what Argentina did in 82 and woke up the British lion from his slumber.
15. The UK was not "enraged" when Egyptian protestors
rebecca ,   Modiin   (11.29.11)
attacked the Israeli embassy in Cairo.
16. British Embassy
Jimmy   (11.29.11)
No, its following the orders they got from the Mullahs.
17. As a british national
Timber ,   Tunbridge Wells   (11.29.11)
I am not surprised they attacked our embassy in Tehran, for yet another resounding victory to the Islamic republic. Feeling safer and possibly cocky as Obama pulls USA troops out next door by December, for a nil result other than sacrificing 6000 boys and girls in vane I tend, perhaps unfairly blame it on Obama who was meant to change USA relations with the world, not destroy them for USA and others by unleashing the hordes of evil and chaos throughout the middle east. Obama has excelled what any anarchist could have done with his performance in office: US President !
18. If only I was in the flag business!!!
if only ,   London   (11.29.11)
19. How many arrested for 'hooliganism' ?
Roland Seener ,   London England   (11.29.11)

Danny   (11.29.11)
21. #12 Ypip, IRG sponsored sacking of UK Embassy
Mark ,   Lodz,Poland   (11.29.11)
Sensitive material hopefully taken home by the Ambassador or destroyed before the rabble broke in.
22. England, time to load your guns!
Danny D ,   Jersey   (11.29.11)
Thius is an act of war. How much longer can the world allow crazy muslims attack the west without having to pay?
23. God save the Queen, and Obama send in the choppers.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (11.29.11)
24. Hey you Brits...
Malone ,   Hfx   (11.29.11)
...You brought this on yourself with all the politically correct BS..now the muslims are running your country,or soon will be and you still don't know how to react...this world better smarten the F up soon,or we'll all be bowing down,facing east to the hateful god,allah..religion of peace,my ass.
25. #17 As a
Shmuel ,   Au   (11.29.11)
Hasbarat I theive on these stories. It allows me to depict Obama as the antichrist. bemoan the deaths of Amercians while forgetting the US invaded Iraq resulting in the deaths of hundreds of,thousands and sowing the seeds of conflict for years to come. Yes i am a happy little hasbarat
26. #14 BRITISH LION ? A PUSSYCAT
URBAN POET ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.29.11)
Who on earth do you think you are with your high-and-mighty fight talk ? Britain is a third-rate banana republic.
27. Faulklands II
Robert ,   New Jersey, USA   (11.29.11)
Ok Great Britain...in the early 80s, it was a cocky Argentina calling your bluff. You rose to the occasion. of course, you had a Thatcher at the helm. Now you have a domestic Muslim constituency to reckon with and a flabby prime minister. And across the pond...a Muslim sympathizer who's probably Muslim himself. I fear the outcome of this will be Jimmy Carter redux. GB...please prove me wrong and do what the lily-livered Carter and Obama won't.
28. Holly men in action.
Gabe ,   Canada   (11.29.11)
29. Students?
James ,   London   (11.29.11)
Of madrasses obviously? Why insult a lofty notion of "student"? This unshaven mob is the future elite of Iran? I gather all their education is to learn the whole of Koran by heart, which is I must admit quite an achievement.
30. Rule Britannia!
JeremyB ,   Jerusalem   (11.29.11)
