CNN Inside Iran 6th January ´10
Two opinions regarding the protests on Ashura.
Mr conservative "Mohammad Marandi" says the demonstrators were "very brutal towards the police" and acted irresponsibly...(he continues to say what his superiors told him
to)
Miss "Fatemeh Haghighatjoo" says that in the beginning the people of Iran requested their demands peaceully, but unfortunately the goverment has done the exact oppsite and has pulled the people into violence...
Miss Haghighatjoo answers every question carefully but check out how Mr Marandi doesnt respond to the reporters questions and just talks his own talk...he pulls the "FOX move"...the channel Fox...not the animal...if I'd have to compare his move to an animal I'd say...Camel...lol...
Miss Haghighatjoo's accent is funny and cute and I like what she has to say.

Wrote a little something a while ago...
"Payam said we aint gonna stop till we got what we want
Michel said dont be naive they gonn ride till you gone
Saman said whatever man i simply wont
stop supporting the movement from home
While Ehsan marches on
the streets of Tehran is filled with ghosts
Neda said Mama stop crying be strong
her father lies in bed but his eyes wont close
No, I wonder what he got told...
I suppose Mo said
they told him what they told Mohsen
said if you go on TV the rest of your familys gonna get toasted...
While Danial packs his holster...
said fuck man, I wanna roast em
but his mama holds on to his hand, grabs the gun and unloads it...
Will they ever go then?"

More and more deaths...hate to post this...
Tehranbureau put together a selection of the youtube clips from the 27th December...the Ashura Videos...
Ashura is a national holiday. Historically, Iranian rulers have always honored Ashura’s prohibition of violence, even during wartime. But these motherfuckers just dont give a fuck...exuse my lingo, but them motherfuckers just killed 5-10 protestors on the streets on a national holiday...on a religious holiday that them motherfuckers supposed to honor the most...
Anyway, here's the link to the Ashura Videos. Thanks Tehranbureau.

The Death March by HADI GHAEMI in New York
Iran's post-election turmoil and the ensuing human rights crisis entered a new phase this week, after authorities announced death sentences for four defendants following the mass trials held for more than a hundred people accused of fomenting unrest and challenging the election results. It has raised the specter of further political executions in Iran. Most ominously, the death sentences were announced on October 10th, the International Day Against the Death Penalty. On the same day, Iran put to death Behnoud Shojaii, a juvenile offender, continuing Iran's distinction as the only country to execute juvenile offenders since 2008.(Read more...)
