We’ll see how big the Feb 11 “punch” is. Interesting they think it will be big, shutting down internet and news services often mean something’s going down soon.

Looking more and more like their big ‘whatever’ is going to be some sort of move against their own people.

“Iranians have reported widespread service disruptions to Internet and text messaging services, though mobile phones appeared to be operating normally Wednesday.

Iran’s telecommunications agency announced what it described as a permanent suspension of Google Inc.’s email services, saying instead that a national email service for Iranian citizens would soon be rolled out. It wasn’t clear late Wednesday what effect the order had on Google’s email services in Iran.

Google didn’t have an immediate comment about the announcement.”

“It will be in 29 minutes...”

Hey, thanks. Was wondering when it’d be the 11th in Iran. I presume I’manutjob meant the 11th in Iran.

Fox is reporting on this now. Thoughts are that this is a way to shut down (duh) communications so the world cannot see what goes down in the streets of Iran.
