The bazaris are demonstrating because they can't sell their merchandise as people are struggling financially, and when they do make a sale, the money they get can drop in value within 24 hours, wiping away their profit. I am actually surprised that the bazar is still open for business since they are more likely to lose money than make a profit in this currency collapse environment.<br /><br />All the above aside, if you watch the Youtube clips, you would see that some of the traditional 2009 type young demonstrators were opportunistically joining in with the bazaris and shouting "bazarie ba gheiratat hemayat hemayat" for example. They used the opportunity to come out as they had no plans of their own.<br /><br />As far as demonstrating on Thursday nights, I think if you look back at the pattern of 2009 demnistrations, the activists were trying to demonstrate as many days as they could, and some were randomly falling on different days and different time. They also demontrated on symbolic days in the Iranian calendar, without any concerted effort to make sure that the time and day is convinient for the masses. <br />The demonstrators in 2009 also gave advance notice on Facebook and twitter, about the time of demonstrations and the route and destination, which was quite handy for the security forces to deploy accordingly.<br /><br />The reason I think the recent event in the bazaar are relevant to the potential new Iranian revolution is that I think diffemt segments of society may have different motivations to complain or demonstrate, but there may come a time that the bazaris, the elites, the students, and the poor and middle class when they may see removing the regime as a common cause. After all, the lack of political and social freedoms compounds the basic day to day economic hardships for every Iranian, and not just the elites.<br /><br />Time will tell of course. Hopefully a year from know I will be in a position to say I told you so!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665812073292288344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-38439750671959806452012-10-05T15:19:23.629-04:002012-10-05T15:19:23.629-04:00To put some people out of their misery watch on Yo...To put some people out of their misery watch on YouTube....<br /> <br />Iran.3.Oct.2012 Clashes in Tehran,"Death to Khamenei" <br /><br /><br />And then you people will stop claiming they chanted against Ahmadinejad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-17346801855284079122012-10-05T14:14:40.264-04:002012-10-05T14:14:40.264-04:00People were chanting:

Remember, Ahmadinejad's first term promise to the electorate was to improve the economy. He hasn't delivered.<br /><br />I'm unconvinced that holding demonstrations on a Thursday night would bring out the lower classes of Tehran. Remember back in '09, there were demonstrations on Thursday nights and these folks did not come out. In fact, they were the ones involved in pro-Ahmadinejad rallies.<br /><br />It's interesting that among the recent demostrations taking place in MENA, it is the lower class majorities that have provided the bulk of protesters and impetus for change, in hopes of social and economic equality. Only in Iran do you find the demonstrators made up of the middle class minority, in the form of northern Tehranis, radicalized students and now Bazaris. But bear in mind, in the latter case, the demo was against Ahmadinejad, his economic polices, and not against the regime as a whole.
