This is Iran in 1979 just before massive numbers of COLLEGE STUDENTS  in Iran were led to believe their government was "oppressive" and decided to call for change though protests and violence.   

There is a reason such people are considered "useful idiots".   Iran was a modern, safe and quite free nation before it fell to Islamic Militant Rule. 

So was Egypt, so was Iraq, so was Afghanistan.  Seeing a pattern yet?  The difference here is about 50 million Americans who are not willing to let this shit happen are heavily armed.  

Think about that every time a politician uses the term "gun safety regulation".
