Opposition supporters stormed parliament and seized control of the government.
Hmmm. A disputed election. Rampent voter fraud. Public outcry...Let's keep this one in mind shall we?
Of course, if a non-violent group of protesters ever dared set foot in the U.S. Capitol building with the aim of seizing power from a corrupt government that had rigged a national election they'd be shot dead where they stood.
