Invitation for a National Gathering Commemorating July 9th [LA rally for Iranian freedom 7/09]
Alliance of Iranian Students ^ | June 11, 2003 | Gholamreza Mohajerinejhad

Greetings Compatriots-

The anniversary of the July 9th national uprising is near. The uprising was doubtlessly an event that not only caused the night worshipping manipulators of religion ruling our country to tremble but it also revealed the democracy seeking struggles of the third generation.

Indeed, the worshippers of the night carried out an assault on the university. They attacked, murdered, set fires, and left, but the doves of freedom remain incarcerated. Doves such as Manoochehr Mohammadi, Abbas Deldar, Akbar Mohammadi, Ahmad Batebi, Mehrdad Lohrasbi, Javid Tehrani, Mostafa Piran, Ali Afshari, Koroush Sahti, Abbas Fakhravar, Mehdi Sanjari, Abbas Amir Entezam, Nasser Zerafshan have been held as political prisoners and Ezat Ebrahimnejad lost his life in the struggle for freedom. But the aggressors do not know that these events have ignited a fire in the hearts of Iranian youth that will blaze on until the enemies of Iran and Iranians have been reduced to ashes.

It is up to us to gather in great numbers during the anniversary of the national uprising so that we make apparent our support for our youth and the doves of freedom during this sensitive time in our national history.

The students and youth of Iran have extended a hand to you compatriots for support.

The gathering of the student movement will take place on Sunday July 6, 2003, at four in the afternoon in front of the Federal Building in Los Angeles.

On that day together we will call for the release of all political prisoners. We will shout "No to an Islamic Republic" and we will tell the world that "We want a referendum".

Looking forward to seeing all of you beloved compatriots,

My wife received an invitation by e-mail yesterday. I am passing this on for FReepers who will stand up for liberty elsewhere in the world, who will stand with people who want to be freed from tyranny, who will show them that the American people care.

There is to be a demonstration in Washington, D.C. that day too, but I cannot read Farsi and details were not published in English on their site: http://www.daneshjooyan.org/farsi/communique/82/820318a.pdf

While we're at it, let's remove France's permanent UN Security Council status and give it to an Iranian government-in-exile. The Iranian people like us better anyway...

Thanks! Interesting links -- but they seem a bit leftist.

"...worshippers of the night..."

What a wonderful metaphor for the Iranian Islamic regime with its sick-making religious pretensions.

Yes...they appear to be pretty left, but also fairly honest. Check out their mini-rant against ANSWER and "Not In Our Name." Free Iran apparently has no desire to be associated with the coddlers of dictators, even if the coddlers are also leftists. I can respect that.

The coverage of Iran-related stories seems to be pretty good.

Good point -- I'd seen the rant, and that was good. But some of their other links bugged me. Still, when they get to issues Iranian, yes, they look better.

On a totally unrelated note, the wife sent me an interesting link today:

Thank you. I will promote it to my like-minded friends. I will be in Israel but please put me on your ping list for future events.
