American Rulers Hiding Their Fear: ICRO Chief
Hojat-ol-Islam Mohammad Mehdi Imanipour made the remark in a post on X, according to the organization’s public relations office.
Referring to the recent widespread ‘No Kings’ protests in the US and its domestic consequences, he said the American media is still trying to manage the consequences of the unprecedented and widespread protests on October 18.
The situation is clear, he said, adding that the American society suffers from fundamental and infrastructural contradictions and conflicts, and this issue is spreading from the hidden level to the open level.

Hojat-ol-Islam Imanipour emphasized that it is better for American rulers not to hide their fear and terror of public uprisings in this country any longer.
In what was billed as the largest single day of protest ever in the nation’s history, millions of protesters took to the streets in almost 3,000 cities and towns in the US on October 18 against the right-wing policies of President Donald Trump.
They condemned Trump, who they said was acting like a monarch. However, the demonstrations comprised predominantly of Democratic politicians, teachers, lawyers, military veterans and fired government workers.
Children and grandmothers, students and retirees were also among the demonstrators.
They said they were outraged over immigration raids, the deployment of federal troops in cities, government layoffs, steep budget cuts, the chipping away of voting rights, the rollback of vaccine requirements, the reversal on treaties with tribes, as well as Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” which they said is benefiting the ultra wealthy while impoverishing the rest of the nation.
Many of the demonstrators had attended a similar protest in June, but the number of demonstrators has increased.
