In this video, two men sentenced to hang are actually rescued by a mob who are then shot at by the regime police.
Live blogging of Iranian action here. Lots and lots of amazing videos. This should be on the top of all the MSM news, but the crotch bomber provides good cover.
Any mobile phone with a camera built in, can do more damage to a regime than a year full of UN resolutions.
Why do we read this on a blog? Because there is no revolution in Iran. The groups that are fighting are not fighting for the USA, or great change, they are fighting over which religious side (both fundamentalist)get to control the government. Think of it as dems and pubs having a bar fight. Lots of thunder and fury with no real change.
No one rules without the support of the majority.
Mr. Dinnerjack is in trouble. His policies of fear and anger are fueling the fire.
We aren’t in the same boat because if the ready pablem of free money.
Hopefully, big changes are in store for Iran.
Even a change in which religious wing nut rules is probably good.
Thank goodness the religious wing nuts here (the good ones of course) are under some sort of control.
Heh – if the US invaded Iran now it seems like the perfect way to suppress any attempt at democracy. The goal is not to create democracy, but to create regimes that are friendly to those in power. This is not unreported, it is outright ignored.
dear clancys_daddy
As an Iranian, and with all due respect, please keep your over-generalized and under-studies opinions to yourself and don’t mock a nations struggle for justice. What we are doing here is greater, more respectable and more dangerous than anything you have done or will ever do in your life, so shut it.

Good for the Iranian people. Hope they succeed. Unlike those pansy venezuelans.
I read about this yesterday. The police got them back and finished the hanging job.
There is no question that the people of iran will bring the islamic revolution to an end and topple the ayatollahs. The only question is will it happen before or after they have nuclear bomb.
The clock is ticking.

Its called freedom of speech thank you very much. When and more importantly if you ever get it. Your welcome from the good ole USA.
All those GMT times are pretty silly & nonspecific without a DATE
Rescued? Recovered and paraded around in actuality.
This has been carried by Fox News since yesterday..
I give you the alleged Iranian army manifesto
Ya this is being reported on the mainstream news, and why wouldn’t they? We want to invade Iran and stories like this are easy enough to spin in a way to convince the retarded American public that the people of Iran want us to . It’s a win win(for the powers that be).
#16 I take it you’re a close with Ahmedinahnut.
These are the same Iranians the wingnuts were clamoring for us to bomb not too long ago. Good thing we didn’t.
Moussavi is far from a liberal reformist. Its just that iranians are tired of a religious oligarchy running the country and want the democracy they demanded back in the 70′s.
By no means does it mean they want to warm up to the West. We are busy arming their devout enemies (Sunni nations) so its unlikely they will be shaking our hands in public soon.
#19 probably has it right. Iran’s probably tired of a theocracy based government. The question is whether the next government will be any better. “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”
