Not Tehran now, but the Amazon. Dozens massacred at Bagua Grande in Peru a few weeks ago on June 5th when an Amazon tribal uprising was beaten back by Peruvian police. The state says 24 cops died and only 10 protesters. Activists have confirmed at least 30 dead and say hundreds are missing. Peru's PM has quit last week as a result of the outrage.
The people were protesting a law allowing for the ransacking of the Amazon. The law has been suspended whilst the anger boils.
