Day of Anger, Valentine style ...

The whole day today I have been very nervous, not because of valentine, but because of a planned rally by Iranian Greens in support of protesters in Egypt and Tunisia. I actually did not have any hope to see people again in the streets after one year silence of the greens, but it seems I was wrong thanks to our Egyptians freedom fighters. It seems like Greens are inspired from Tunisians and Egyptians protesters who actually did manage to drive away dictators from their countries. It seems today from Iranians young boys and girls up to the elders of the society preferred to spend their valentine on the streets trying to give a lesson to leaders of Iran.

Today on Valentine day Iranians came once again to the streets and tried to show off, and of course Iranian government is no Mubarak(Egyptian ex-president). They do have a very good paramilitary(Basijies) mobilized and ready to bring violence in any non-violent rally against them whereever in Iran. So today Basijies were on call and could not make it to the their valentine dates. They were busy driving with motor cycles to the pavements beating up pedestrians and trying to use the element of fear to drive people away from the streets, but they did not make it. Although because of mass of police and Basijies presence all over the city a huge classic style rally did not take place, but there were reports of anti-governmental gatherings at least all over Tehran and also reports from Isfahan and other major cities. The demonstrations made one key point - the opposition Green Movement is still alive.

According to the interviews of the Mousavi's advisor with different media, Greens leadership was after to use this opportunity to show the current leaders of Iran that they have to sit at the table and negotiate with them and if NOT they have the power to bring people to the streets of at least Tehran and other major cities of Iran.

My best regards to all freedom fighters in Iran.
