These scenes are, perhaps, as a surprise to the outside, and even some of the country's most senior executives.

Only Seven Weeks ago, Iran is the fiercest anti-government demonstrations seen in decades. Security forces killed somewhere between 330 and 1500 protesters in More Than 100 cities across the country. Thousands more were injured and arrested.

So, why have so many people come to pay homage to Soleimani?

There is No Doubt that feelings are running high. Probably The Most important man in the German armed forces was murdered by the United States, which, for many, is the arch-enemy of Iran .

with a message to President Donald Trump : "Have you seen such a sea of humanity in your Life ?. You still think that you canThe Will of a great nation and its people?"/p>

has made the people turn in large numbers, because they think this is.

Hardline organizers have powerful supporters, including the Basij para-military force and The Revolutionary guard, the always reliable service.

Other factors that help explain why so many ordinary Iranians closed ranks behind the decision.

Some see Soleimani as a hero, who devoted his Life to the defense of the country. You feel that he was incorruptible, and his work is dedicated, in contrast to many of the older soldiers and officers.

He was also a commander of The Revolutionary guards, the majority of the eight-year Iran -Iraq war in the 1980s, when the Iranians, in spite of the Western support for the Iraqi leader, Saddam Hussein , stopped Iraqi forces from the overflow of your country.

Another factor for The High turnout was loose talk from President Trump. He tweeted that they had selected US 52 goals in Iran for a possible attack, if Iran acted to avenge Soleimani Death .

The Most important, as it is now, it is clear, in the lives of his activities beyond the region, Iran is close to A War with the United States and The World 's strongest military.

Maybe he has Iran even closer to the reality of Death .
