Lots of graphics and link to several videos
I’ve been reading various new accounts for an hour now- it seems the young people of Iran are enraged over the cheating in the election. Interesting updates from Twitter here: http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/8sbor/twitterers_posting_from_inside_iran/
Sounds like all hell is breaking loose there.
Michael Totten has some amazing videos here:

The on in his own mind.
Frankly, I don’t mind if they off that pig Rafsanjani. He is a mullah crook himself.
The situation has to reach eventually the point (I’ll give it some time though) that the regime is opposed, not just the current cabinet.
Down with Ahmadinejad and the islamic regime!!!
IMO Twitter has the best coverage with lots of links to other breaking news and commentary.
Unfortunately Tehran has severed all telecomm (including domestic?) and Internet (definitely including Twitter).

And a very popular bonus discussion of CNN’s trashy decision to totally ignore the Iran protests all day Saturday:

IRAN AZADI!
Gee, political opposition leaders in house, or worse, arrest within 24 hours of an election in Iran. Is this a new, groundbreaking precedent for countries who watch Iran closely and are “EXCITED” about the “democratic” process in IRAN to consider for implementation in their own countries in the future? Gee, lose an election in a democratic country and win a “Go to Jail” card? How PROGRESSIVE and innovative! What a CHANGE!
Thank you George W and the American Military for the strategic decision to help the Iraqi people to establish a democracy that will spread throughout the region.
The biggest nightmare to the left in America:
The violent overthrow of the mullah theocracy in Iran accompanied by freedom fighters holding pictures of W and calling him the father of a new Iranian democratic rule!
CNN will notice and report on the following:
One Republican trashing another Republican
Five Gay Men Protesting anything
Six Members of NOW complaining about any conservative
Eight Blacks angry with cops
Thirty Union Members picketing a company
Here's the groups that "don't make the CNN cut":
1,000 democrats criticizing one corrupt democrat
400,000 tea party protesters
A million Iranians bravely standing up to their oppressors.
Sounds like Iran’s Tianamen Square to me. So-called “reformers” and real dissidents will be rounded up and eliminated one way or another, followed by “nothing to see here” by the mullahs who really run things. Meanwhile, Obama won’t lift a finger.
twitterfall.com gives inflow of iran twitters
Obama seems strangely silent. I guess he doesn’t know which side to support.... LOL...
That shows severe lack of leadership.
Let’s keep some perspectiuve here.
From the ‘moderate’ Rafsanjani:
RAFSANJANI SAYS MUSLIMS SHOULD USE NUCLEAR WEAPON AGAINST ISRAEL

Please show me where the protesters who are yelling Allahu Akbar are opposed to Iran having nukes.
