AFP: Three leading figures in Iran's opposition including a former president say they will join a pro-Palestinian mass rally on Friday amid warnings not to turn it into a protest against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Reformist former president Mohammad Khatami, opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi who was runner-up to Ahmadinejad in June's disputed presidential election and another defeated reformist candidate, cleric Mehdi Karroubi, have all said they will attend the annual Quds Day march. It will be the first mass gathering in the streets of Tehran since July 9 when thousands of demonstrators defied government warnings and staged a march to commemorate the anniversary of bloody student unrest in 1999 >>>

Reza, I agree 120%
by Cost-of-Progress on Tue Sep 22, 2009 12:43 PM PDTIndeed Mr. Mousavi is no better than the other murderers known as the IRI.
Mousavi himself is responsible for numerous attrocities and murders during his rein as the PM.
"Democratic Republic of Iran" is what we need - take the religion out of Iran......................For good.
Another propaganda by IRI
by RezaKnowsAcu on Tue Sep 22, 2009 11:48 AM PDTWhy are we so intune and worried about the Palestinians, when our own beloved people are suffering right here in our own backyards? Isn't it enough to help Lebanon and Palestine with so many millions of dollars each month that we actually have to name a day for their cause!
Is there a National day for Iran in any of these two nations? Did they help us in any way when our country was fighting a war with Sadaam for over 7 years? This is all again another part of this government to stir havoc, and use it for their own means. Mr. Mousavi and all other clerics who are suddenly so interested in the well beings of the iraninan people and supposedly have their best interest in heart, arent any better than those in charge right now. Dont make that mistake either.
Go listen to those chanting on the streets of Iran right now and you will hear that they arent any interested in this nonsense and they know how this is jsut another propaganda set up by IRI.
Long live Iran and its people.
I don't suppose
by MRX1 on Wed Sep 16, 2009 08:25 AM PDTthere is a 'rooz iran' any where in the arab world where Arabs gather and demonstrate for the right of Iranians, is there?
Palestine is an A-rab issue
by mahmoudg on Wed Sep 16, 2009 07:33 AM PDTIf A-rabs dont care and have no interest in solving the Palestine issue, why are we Iranians the bowl hotter than stew!! It seems the IRI is using this excuse as reason to continue its illegitimate grip on our beloved Persia. Let the A-rabs attempt to solve this A-rab issue, and i say Israel has every right to exist and continue its resettlements.

Quds.. give it up
by pars35 on Tue Sep 15, 2009 06:50 PM PDTIRI is mudding the water by these pro-Palestinian stuff. Mullahs are fishing in muddy waters at the expense of Palestinian and Jewish Blood. IRI is not sincere in solving Isreal-Palestinian conflict, only to take advantage of it .
If musavie real means it, come out another day
The key is co-existence.
Mousavi would have made a better martyr for the cause...
by AK69 on Tue Sep 15, 2009 04:54 PM PDT- alive, he is just another IR member using Iranians as means to his own self-serving ends.
