Contributing sentiments towards policy:
47% : Iran has enough prisons to hold all of you."45% : In 2007, the squirrels were arrested "before they were able to take any action," according to an Iranian official; one year later, Iran arrested two pigeons near the Natanz nuclear facility.
42% : In the past decade and a half, which of the following has Iran arrested: A team of 14 "spy squirrels" it found near a nuclear plant; two pigeons who were taken into custody and whose fate remains unknown; or a rapper whose songs criticize a 25-year agreement between Iran and China?
38% : In his songs, Salehi has criticized the regime's devastating corruption, including the Iran-China cooperation pact, which was signed between the two countries last March, and which, according to Reuters, will bring Iran into "China's Belt and Road Initiative, a multi-trillion-dollar infrastructure scheme intended to stretch from East Asia to Europe."
31% : Absolutely nothing, because this isn't Iran.
31% : In the end, Iran may regret having arrested Salehi; such arrests only fuel the fire of further citizen rage.
