Thank you for the updates. I've been watching the news, and they're saying 4 were killed while 2 were injured. What would they know? That is why I come here. ;)
I pray your family is safe from harm, even if they riot. May God put a hedge of protection about them.
If Khamenie has left town, isn't that how the regime fell in 1979? Hmm...Have a good day.
Dear Winston, the BBC is reporting it was his nephew who was murdered. (Murder: my word.)
Is this a police station? (video) That is what they are saying the people have taken over. Just asking.
The Iranian freedom fighters are so courageous and brave. From what I've seen they are using only rocks as weapons in their fight against the oppressors.
Those who have died in this struggle so the Iranian people will one day be free from the tyrannical rule of the mullahs are genuine heros.
Thanks for all the links.
THANKS, as always for your updates and reports.
Today was probably the bloodiest day since the start of post election protests. All corners of Iran was raging. The theocracy needs a nudge and it will be gone forever. I guess the regime is now going to attempt to appease the Green leaders, Khamenei could go on TV and cry crocodile tears, promise "change" in order to preserve the establishment.
Winston: I sincerely hope your information is accurate regarding Khamenei leaving Iran. Although a long shot, the end of this retched regime would be the best possible outcome for the Iranian people, the region, and the World! Keep up your excellent blogging and tweets.

When/where did I say he left Iran?
I guess my enthusiasm got the better of me and I saw Iran instead of Tehran (see below). Wishful thinking. I hope this is at least the beginning of the end.

WorldAffairsGuy - there is lot of rumur about Khamenei leaving. I read one on "escape to Russia". Let us hope he does go away. You may be interested to see this video compares Khamenei to shah and is quite funny actually. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDOJxqz4Kx0
Leila: Thank you for suggesting the link. Funny, although I would take the Shah over Khamenei any day! Lets hope that criminal is removed from power asap.
