“I will participate in the demonstrations tomorrow. Maybe they will turn violent. Maybe I will be one of the people who is going to get killed. I’m listening to all my favorite music. I even want to dance to a few songs. I always wanted to have very narrow eyebrows. Yes, maybe I will go to the salon before I go tomorrow! There are a few great movie scenes that I also have to see. I should drop by the library, too. It’s worth to read the poems of Forough and Shamloo again. All family pictures have to be reviewed, too. I have to call my friends as well to say goodbye. All I have are two bookshelves which I told my family who should receive them. I’m two units away from getting my bachelors degree but who cares about that. My mind is very chaotic. I wrote these random sentences for the next generation so they know we were not just emotional and under peer pressure. So they know that we did everything we could to create a better future for them. So they know that our ancestors surrendered to Arabs and Mongols but did not surrender to despotism. This note is dedicated to tomorrow’s children…”

Translated from the Iranian by naicINsight Looking at these people for the last week, I have to say they are very brave and have much spirit.

[Mercat]

Prayers up for these patriots.

[Churchillspirit]

Prayers up for these patriots.

Amen to that.

I wish Conservatives had half the spine

[spectre]

I wish the Conservatives had a leader.

And from the part about going to the salon to get eyebrows done, I'm guessing this is a woman.

[GeronL]

We can only speculate on how many metrosexuals are in Tehran

[BipolarBob]

If they only knew we were on their side.

“Tomorrow is a big day, maybe I’ll get killed tomorrow!”

For some reason that statement just left me in awe. Cant figure out why though.

[PapaBear3625]

If they only knew we were on their side.

I'm guessing that many of them do, and that once Internet access is freed up, a lot more of them will find out how many in the West have been pulling for them.

[Bosco]

I admire these Iranians courage, but unless the mullahs are overthrown it's just window dressing no matter if it's Ahmadinejad or Mousavi.

Either one are ruthless Shiite extremists who are part of an apocalyptic genocidal death cult.

[struggle]

Request that Google changes their symbol tomorrow to reflect solidarity with Iranians...

I second that! I hope those who have already been murdered have not been murdered for naught. I hope God protects these brave souls.

[chris_bdba]

God be with them. I wish we had Bush back and not the moron we are stuck with now!

Web support pours out for Iran protesters

"Google and Facebook have rushed out services in Farsi. Twitter users have changed their home cities to Tehran to provide cover for Internet users there. Others have configured their computers to serve as relay points to bypass Iranian censorship.

In the aftermath of the disputed Iranian election, Internet companies and individuals around the world have stepped in to help Iranians communicate and organize."......................

I admire these Iranians courage, but unless the mullahs are overthrown it's just window dressing no matter if it's Ahmadinejad or Mousavi.

Their problems are a side effect of Islam. Islam is incompatible with progress. Islam is incompatible with democracy. Islam is incompatible with prosperity (unless you have billions of barrels of oil to hide the fact with).

If they exchange the rule of one cleric for another, they will soon be back where they started.

[Othniel]

I AM AMERICA, and I support these Iranians in their efforts against the Islamic totalitarian regime.

(Hey, if president punka$$ isn't going to say anything, I sure am!!!)
