Thanks for the heads-up on this.

I don’t have Twitter, but I will go to the Facebook site.

Boiling water?

How medieval!

And the Mullahs try to pass off their regime as a civil society?

Obama, you creep, speak up!

I believe it is some kind of chemical that takes a few minutes to react with people’s skin. I was watching a video on YourTube and that was what one of the people over there indicated.

Today, Iranian Americans are protesting in front of the White House.

Hey Obama...the world can hear your silence.

Video link is horribly graphic (caution) and you need to sign up for Facebook to view or you can just read below an eyewitness account.

From Twitter:

A young girl has been killed by #Basij #iranelection http://tinyurl.com/m7us3w WATCH AND SPREAD THIS

Basij shots to death a young woman in Tehran’s Saturday June 20th protests

At 19:05 June 20th
Place: Karekar Ave., at the corner crossing Khosravi St. and Salehi st.

A young woman who was standing aside with her father watching the protests was shot by a basij member hiding on the rooftop of a civilian house. He had clear shot at the girl and could not miss her. However, he aimed straight her heart. I am a doctor, so I rushed to try to save her. But the impact of the gunshot was so fierce that the bullet had blasted inside the victim's chest, and she died in less than 2 minutes.
The protests were going on about 1 kilometers away in the main street and some of the protesting crowd were running from tear gass used among them, towards Salehi St.
The film is shot by my friend who was standing beside me.
Please let the world know.

From Twitter:

jennzebel Set your location to Tehran and your time zone to GMT +3.30. Security forces are hunting for bloggers using location/timezone searches. less than 20 seconds ago from web

This is just what FReeper Jeff Head has asked all of us tos do!

Just go to 'settings' and scroll to GMT + 3.30!!! The city name Tehran will come up and that is just what we want!

This helps open up passageways for the Iranians to communicate!

Everyone, PLEASE go join Twitter and do this for the Iranian people. It is the very best thing, aside from deep prayers, that we can do just now.

After all, our very own President will DO NOTHING, so WE must STAND IN THE GAP! Let the girlie man liberals of America cowar behind words like meddling, and concerned and troubled (what bullshit), we, THE PEOPLE know when a revolution is RIGHT!

Because they are talking to us too. They know what kind of influence the US can have if we will do so.

Most signs are not, but many are. They are trying to get the message to us and illicit our support.

Terrible, terrible. This is so amazing to follow. I understand now how when it says in the bible that the good from all over the world will band together against the bad from all over the world.

This is what it is like to live under a dictatorship.

We must NEVER let it happen here!

"pressure"

Imagine millions of very intelligent Iranians noticing democratic governments (however shaky) in Iraq and Afghanistan, and they're still being ruled by some idiot theocrats who haven't left the seventh century. It's obviously driving them to frustration. They want to join the twenty-first century, and they have morons for leaders. Come to think of it, so do we.
