Iran never gave an estimate of the number of violent protesters and I said that the violent rioters are terrorist backed by Israel and should be arrested . I am applying the same standard for all countries .

Did I ever denied this ?

Iran did. Around 600 of the 2400 people who died were violent terrorists. The 2400 including Iranian government employees and other people killed by the terrorists.
