University Students Decry Regime “Incompetence”
On January 11, a group of student protestors at Amir Kabir University read a powerful statement that condemned Iran’s elite and government. The students were reacting to the downing of the Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752. They mourned the loss of 176 lives, including colleagues and university alumni, but were also enraged at the Revolutionary Guards for mistakenly shooting the plane down and at the government for denying responsibility for three days.
