POST-SOCCER DEMOCRACY RIOTS IN IRAN

Gary has been reporting on the huge democracy protests that have been going on in Iran and the mainstream media has failed to report them. Here’s the latest:

Iran Press News claims hundreds of thousands of Iranians poured into the streets of cities all across Iran last Friday night. Iran’s TV media blamed anti-regime Iranian media abroad for inciting the revolts. The demonstrators were quoted as chanting: “People join us and condemn the executioners and oppressors…death to dictators…get lost hired killer mercenaries… and Bush, Bush, support, protection…”

SMCCDI reports that as a result of the failure of the regime to deal effectively with the demonstrations, the regime held a high level meeting of those responsible for security measures. The regime is bracing for more demonstrations this next Wednesday (when Iran plays North Korea) and next Saturday (the final day of New Years celebrations). Pro-democracy forces are calling for more demonstration on these dates.

Enough! (A blog I am coming to like) has pictures here.
