Galloway once stated "I am on the anti-imperialist left... If you are asking did I support the Soviet Union, yes I did. Yes, I did support the Soviet Union, and I think the disappearance of the Soviet Union is the biggest catastrophe of my life. If there was a Soviet Union today, we would not be having this conversation about plunging into a new war in the Middle East, and the US would not be rampaging around the globe."

Therefore I think the statement you were referring to is most likely an accurate account of what may have happened shortly after this photo was taken. Hopefully though the woman had quick legs and escaped.
I could call your comment trolling, but it's actually more accurate to describe it as an uneducated remark.

Don't you know that the person in the car is Ahmadinejad, who is President, not supreme leader?

Give me a break. We don't even know that the photo is real. Can we demonize the regime for things it's actually done now, instead of speculating like children? Because it's more productive.

wow your really no wont make a personal attack here. In a thread you created you show people in full riot gear talking about how peacefull it is in Iran. Let me ask you a question have you ever known anyone to be in full riot gear unless there is a riot? Do you see police running around in the united states with riot gear on? No do you know why they only put it on if there is a riot in progress mostly because its uncomfortable hot and restricts movement.
So to say theres no riot then post pictures of motorcycles going by them in full riot gear is normal in Iran then there government is more oppressive than i thought.
PS As much as Iran would like to hide whats going on the age of being abled to clamp down on information is over even china figured tht out and has gone to trying to control the source. In iran the source is the people and the people want the story to get out and it has sorry if this upsets you but hey such is life.

As any recruit can plainly see, it is the same body guards, the same car, and the image is dated April 15, 2009; long before the current unrest.
