"In the footage, a police helicopter closely follows a pro-Palestinian protest as it snakes its way across Dallas.
Two things are immediately striking to me about the footage. First, I am amazed and disturbed by the level of detail that the camera is able to capture, by the proximity it achieves. The police helicopters are not merely tracking groups of people, they are nearly able to identify individual faces. Second, I am struck by the design of the interface itself: the sci-fi overlay of street names, borders, parcel numbers, target distances, and so on."
Sorry to hear that. I'm sure that those who were responsible for such a crime will be held responsible. Either in this world, or otherwise in front of god.
This is totally incorrect. Student basij is actually consists of students, and the clash was mostly between the students.
The shooting claim is also completely false. Some of the students were arrested because of rioting.
How many Basij attend Sharif again? Zero, right? So not a "student vs student". Also Sharif students carry books, basij chains, sticks, and other weapons.
+I can start posting letters of professors demanding release of abducted -- "arrested" implies a sort of civilized police behavior, which is not applicable here -- students.
> Some of the students were arrested because of rioting.
Save it for the trials. In fact, if I were a beneficiary of "Islamic Republic" I would pray that there will be trials.
This is totally BS. Armed to the teeth security forces are slaughtering empty handed students and you say this is students vs students? I don't know what to say. Just wow
Maybe basij in theory was meant to be representative, in practice at best representative of 10% of students in a technical university. Maybe even 15 some place. But at some building at sharif, easier to detect gravitational waves.
To give benefit of the doubt, one may attend one of the social science universities focused on religious studies, where basij is more representative or actually is, and extend this to sharif. But those universities are not representative of all universities, even assuming they don’t have alternative criteria for admission. I am not sure but I think they do.
It’s far easier to communicate to conservatives and seculars and everyone really that this disturbance is backed by foreign states (as it is their official public policy), than to make an inaccurate claim that alienates one’s cause, whatever that is. If religion to protect one’s country, could be reason to be moderate.
