Three days
by Boston Globe06-Jan-2010
Boston Globe: Supporters of the opposition to Iran's current ruling regime continue to gather, speak out, and protest - despite the risks of imprisonment, injury or death, and the continued official restrictions on foreign media coverage. On December 21st, 2009, thousands of Iranians attended a funeral ceremony for Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri, the spiritual father of Iran's reform movement, who had passed away at the age of 87. In the days following the funeral, mourners and protesters took to the streets defying an official ban on such memorial services. On the Muslim holy day of Ashoura, December 27th, protesters and riot police clashed in multiple locations in Tehran, leaving many injured and between 8 and 37 protesters killed, including the nephew of opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi. Days later, on December 30th, the Iranian government organized its own protest - against the opposition - giving all civil servants the day off to attend, providing dozens of buses and free chocolate milk for demonstrators. Collected here are photos from the three days, most taken by anonymous photographers, acquired outside the country by press agencies who are restricted by the government ban >>>

aweful
by Omid Talebi on Sun Jan 10, 2010 03:55 AM PSTThese people are destroying people's hard work. Some of these people whose houses and stores have been burnt to the ground or kicked in and looted have saved their whole youth so they could build a future for themselves and their children.
These shameful people are destroying Iranian's lives and work... they're costing Iranians money. There is no doubt in my mind that they are doing Iran's enemies bidding.
Many people here seem to very out of touch with Iran and Iranians. I suggest people go there... people have become very sick and tired of the rioters.
I hate be an Iranian
by Shameful_Iranian on Sat Jan 09, 2010 05:50 AM PSTThat is very true. I hate to be an Iranian and it’s very shameful but it’s not because of Iranian regime, because of Iranian people as well. No matter what kind of regime take the power (which it’s not an issue), people never change. Iranian people want nothing to do with its government and get tired of it start rioting and destroying their own goods (for example buses, building and government buildings which build by tax payer’s money). People never participate in any activity as volunteer and ask too much for it too. Once late US President JFK said “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country”.As I look for other culture and communities in aboard and outside Iran, people of Iran are the ONLY community who are hate each other and NEVER support each other unless they have same interest and want to share some power in the country’s future. Iranian people use other political and religion figures for their own good then they toss them on “historic trash-can”. Iranian people wants freedom but once government pass a law to protect freedom of all people, they will raise their anger because their own freedom is not free any more. They want a lawless country with UNLIMITED freedom!!!!!!With all fact that I mentioned above, that’s why “ I HATE TO BE AN IRANIAN” and I shame to be one of you all.
politic sucks.........
