I can see why Iranians would be mad that their government shot down a passenger airplane by mistake. Especially considering they originally claimed to have had nothing to do with it and later had to admit that they did do it. So it is not surprising to see protests.
The orange man is taking advantage of this, declaring his support for the protesters.
To the brave, long-suffering people of Iran: I've stood with you since the beginning of my Presidency, and my Administration will continue to stand with you. We are following your protests closely, and are inspired by your courage.

The government of Iran must allow human rights groups to monitor and report facts from the ground on the ongoing protests by the Iranian people. There can not be another massacre of peaceful protesters, nor an internet shutdown. The world is watching.

This shoot down of that passenger plane was an own goal by the Iranians. They could have avoided it totally if they just suspended air travel.
Now we are going to see ZOG spooks step in and try to use these re-energized anti-government protests to try and overthrow the Ayatollah.
