Interesting.
Especially since early this morning the radio was talking about how the Police had backed off to allow the protest. |

im surprised the tanks have not rolled in yet.....dictators hate protestors. too bad iran does not have a second amendment......
 .....maybe iraq will start sending some support to the civilians...... they can send back all the ied's, and efp's, that iran has been sending to the iraq insurgents...... iran needs their own insurgents.

Not police firing.............."militia"
The shooting came from a compound for volunteer militia linked to Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard.

After killing US troops in Iraq, Iran's leadership deserves whatever it gets.
Hopefully whatever happens does so without large numbers of civilians killed or injured. The election was a sham and everyone can see it, the leadership looks like fools. |

I figure if the IRG can get men and bombs across the border and in to the hands of Iraqi insurgent assholes then that door ought to swing both ways. It would be utterly stupid and irresponsible for the CIA not to be in Iran doing everything it can to topple the Mullahs right now. Even Obama wouldn't be so stupid as to stop them.

Strange that the local news was saying how minor protests had broken out as a result of the elections.
And that no one had been injured. Called the protests peaceful.

I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that Ahmadinejad lost this election and then had the mullahs steal it back for him.
For sure the opposition had significant support in Tehran. But we're talking about students and upper class urban residents. Iran is basically Tehran and then everywhere else. And I bet that the "everywhere else" component went heavily for Ahmadinejad.

Iran has shot down texting/cell phone service, internet service, asked international reports to leave or arrested them and arrested 100 opposition figures arrested, including the brother of ex-reformist President Khatami. Mark my words, there will be a civil war in Iran soon.

If you examine revolutions throughout history, most are led by an urban middle/upperclass with strong intellectual leanings. And quite frankly, one successful urban power grab was enough for the French revolutionaries as well. Once the center of power is in their hands, the revolution can spread to less sympathetic ears outside their current zone of influence. |
