“We worked very hard to bring together people who normally don’t talk to each other,” said Roozbeh Farahanipour, secretary general of Iranians for a Secular Republic (Marzepor Gohar). Farahanipour was a key leader in the July 1999 student uprising in Tehran and fled to the United States two years later.

I'm glad to hear Iranians are willing to work together on this issue. The diversity of the crowd and the solidarity they showed against terrorism and for democracy was inspiring. It was an important demonstration and although there are a few missguided individuals who prefer to be divisive in the midst of historic solidarity, their commentary is not the norm!

No one who attended the event can consider Mr. Timmerman's account fair or balanced. He must be trying to compensate for not been invited to speak on the main stage. Better luck next time Mr. T! BTW F14, Did you make it to the demo?

Oh really? Wanna bet?
It figures you'd have something petty to say about Timmerman. Truth about MEK hurts, huh?

Funny how the media trys to de-value this demostration by mentioning they were paid. However, I have never seen the media mention JESSI JACKSON's PAID RENT-A-MOB, who seem to to show up en mass.
