Supreme leader of Iran, Ayatollah Khameini “We talk to protesters, but talking to rioters is useless; rioters must be put in their place.”

This is Iran announcing a massive crackdown on the protests across Iran.
As we have explained, the IRGCs capabilities are weakened but remain.

They are trying to split the protesters base into *peaceful protestors* and *rioters* - the *rioters* will be falsely accused of being foreign agents.

I do not expect that the IRGC will be able to suppress the protests - we are likely looking at an impending escalation of violence across Iran.
The protests may turn very violent in the coming days.
The protesters may become militant.
