Quite opinionated to one side, but not wrong on the question of comparing the outcries.
I know those who have double standards will try and find differences, but to anyone who really cares about the killing of innocent people there is no difference.
There is a big difference. Hundreds of Iranian police and military have been killed. Peaceful protest is a very different thing than armed riots. Even if you support the overthrow of the theocratic dictatorship in Iran, it's hard to say that they're any more brutal than any other country based on the facts, and they are considerably less brutal than the Israeli state.
Iran is already a pariah state, I don't know what you expect. They are sanctioned by the UN, marked as a terrorist organization, the US droned their 2nd in command... There's nothing to do except write editorials about hypocrisy or start a new middle eastern war. Wake me up when the west is funding the revolutionary guard with 10s of billions of dollars of military aid a year.

It's not hypocrisy, it's that Russian/Iranian money and propaganda are the direct cause.
Notice also the outcry over Maduro, another Russian ally.
