The first ever attack of its kind on Iran. Quite shocking.

yes rare of Isis to do that in IRAN

[Brother Leon]

They get bullied on the ground by the Iran Fighters so they have to get "revenge" on innocent civilians. Pathetic.

Further proof that the islamophobia in response to IS attacks is completely ridiculous when 80% of their destruction is waged on Muslim-heavy countries.

I've been watching the Iranian news unravel what happened because I have an obvious interest in Iran. I was alarmed to see on channel 4 news last night, an accusation that Hassan Rouhani is calling death to America and the West and showed crowds of people shouting "death to the West". The Iranian news channels have said no such thing. Rouhani has made a speech where he thanks a whole number of countries for their sincere words of condolences. He personally thanks the West, including Boris Johnson and for some strange reason, Angelina Jolie (They absolutely idolize her in Iran). There has been no reports of anti-West chanting whatsoever, so why channel 4 are saying this really concerns me.

That's true.

Sadly common sense doesn't apply to islamophobic people.
