Blogs and websites have become an important campaign tool for Mir Hossein Mousavi, the leading reformist candidate, to mobilise Iran's critical youth vote before the June 12 ballot.

You’re irrational hate for Israel which has reached anti Semitism levels, has caused you to miss the most obvious realities!!!! It’s really sad.
There is a difference between shutting down a site and saying "be vigilant" about a site! All countries in the world ask their citizens to be vigilant about, for example, sexual content for minors on sites like Facebook. That’s OK. However, only a Fascist, barbaric, insecure, inhumane and un-Iranian illegal and illegitimate regime such as the IRI actually shuts them down for petty reason: freedom of speech!

networks, by terrorist organizations. The announcement came four months
after Operation Cast Lead in Gaza, in which the Internet was an
important tool in the battle between Israel and terrorist organizations]
