In a time where the media bombards us with news of plane crashes,floods in europe,the tragic life and too eary demise of a pop star icon,we should not be distracted;we should bear in our minds the terribe situation of the trapped and enslaved people of occupied Gaza,what we wittnessed in Iran will not simply go away,it is the rumbleings og the giant there who is sleeping now but will wake up and demand freedom and equality very soon.Lets not forget Sudan,Somalia,the rich nations don't care;there is no oil to exploit there,only the desperate eyes pleading at us.The current recession in the world hits the poor nations hardest,let's demand that the G-8 nations think with clearer minds now;slash the forign loans that the poor nations hav'ent a chance to repay,open our borders for fair commerce instead of dumping our excess goods at prices the poor countries cannot match.We are not apart as we like to think;we're on the same island,in the same boat altogether dammit!

Anyone know about the most reliable news agency covering the situation at this point?When a regime turns against its own people like the world now has wittnessed,it could be the gratfying death rattle of a terrible 30 years time for the Persians.They need all the support we can muster.First they had to put up with the Shah and his secret police Sawak,then hope in the return of Komeiny,who promiset that all political parties were to be premitted,that hope lasted a very short time.But the Iranians are tough and a proud people,they are tenacious and will not give in this time.With the legacy of being the oldest sivilazation on earth the time has come to admit that relgion and politics mix rather poorly.Look at europe in the dark ages controlled by the catholic church.But the Persians have to figure out their own path forward and nobody should intervene right now.I have a bad feeling but I pray for the best!
