Violent clashes between protesters and security forces in Pakistan’s southern port city of Karachi and in the country’s north left at least 22 people dead and more than 120 others injured as demonstrators supportive of the Iranian government attempted to storm a U.S. Consulate on Sunday, authorities said.

In the north of the country, demonstrators attacked U.N. and government offices.

The violence came after the United States and Israel attacked Iran, killing its Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Police and officials at a hospital in Karachi said that at least 50 people were also wounded in the clashes and some of them were in critical condition.

    People should have a right to protest - even if they’re dumbasses protesting for idiotic things. Devaluing a life just because the person behind it is a dumbass is very much a Nazi tactic. You don’t dehumanise stupid. You help it realise and reconcile it’s stupidity.

      Sure?

      What level of management speak is this?

      I also like how you jumped from violent mobs tries to burn US consulate staff alive to: you need to have a calm moment with them, sit them down, have a chat, maybe some tea and talk it over? 🤣

      I’m not sure you’d be quite so forgiving if you were inside the embassy about to be gang raped and beheaded

        I’d like to know how you jumped from “demonstrators in support of the Iranian government” to “deserves to die.”

          I didn’t say that, I said I don’t give a shit that they died

          They violently attacked the US embassy hoping to kill everyone inside because they’re upset their evil dictator who last month murdered upwards of 30,000 people died.

          See if I give a shit
