[Tamzee]

Thank you for the notice, I've been watching to see where we can go... it's the least we can do for the freedom protestors.

[Tamzee]

Ping FYI in case you wish to include this in your daily Iran thread.

[Hamiltonian]

Bump

[broadsword]

ahhh bummer!

Is there anything going on in Tucson or Phoenix because I would really like to show my support.

[martin_fierro]

Those students should take and hold some mullahs hostage for 444 days.

[freedom44]

I'd prefer Court Trials in front of international Cameras with documentation of all their crimes including torture, rape, and murder of tens of thousands of innocent Iranians.

Including, documentation proving that the hiijacking of the revolution by the Mullahs was funded by an external alliance promised the riches of the country.

Khomeini was in France for many years as an exile.

[Eala]

Thanks for posting this. I'm alerting Seattle FReepers and a couple of local radio talk show hosts.

[diotima]

Ping!!!

[Flyer]

PING! Two dates in Houston for us to show support for Iranian Freedom Fighters.

As always, a FReep mail will get you on or off this Houston topics ping list.

This is great.

We need to remember that thousands of Iranian people held candle light vigils in support and sympathy for the US after 9-11, while many in the rest of the Middle East danced on the street.

Following the terrorist attacks on New York City, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania, many in Iran showed their support for the victims with vigils and prayers. Thousands attend candlelight vigil in Tehran.

Houston Tuesday July 8th 6-8pm 2300 Between St. Phillip and Westernet

Is that accurate? The 2300 block of what street? Also, I can't locate "St. Phillip" or "Westernet" streets on the online maps. Should this be 2300 Post Oak (or some other north-south running street) between San Felipe (pronounced feh-lee-pay) and Westheimer?

[truth_seeker]

Demonstrating is fine. But to overthrow the govt. you have to overthrow the govt.

That takes VIOLENCE.

Thus far the people of this region seem to have a strong propensity for the type of violence which kills women and children, such as suicide bombs. And burning flags.

The type of violence to get freedom is as yet, aa totally unknown quality with them.

The proof will be revealed soon. How many are willing to pay the price?

True, many people OUTSIDE Iran want change. But they have left the scene of the crime. It won't be their blood given.

Inside the country, the citizens MUST take up weapons, and challenge the Police and soldiers, to kill them.

Make a revolution of this thing, not just a peaceful street demonstration.

[grapeape]

What about tomorrow? Where and when. if they want a showing in a thunderstorm then they are going to have to provide some more info.

[freedom44]

It's San Felipe (pronounced feh-lee-pay) and Westheimer.

[freedom44]

I'm going to get the exact location for everyone by tomorrow. I've been trying to call the Satellite TV station for a while now. Unfortunately theres no on-line listing, what i lised was what was announced on the air and as you know, it's difficult to get precise name of streets when they're stated so quickly. I'm sure it's saint felipe and westihemer and 2300 is involved, but i want to find the precise location.

There will be 63 different cities demonstrating in support during the July 7th-9th period. Absolutely amazing!

I'll get with everyone as soon as i get through and find the information.

[McGavin999]

Well, you and I could go and stand out in front of the Persian Garden restaurant in Phoenix, with signs :o)
