Protests in Iran
 

What happens half a world away affects us here too. I was looking at the photos and videos of the Iranian protests. I have to say, that they are really something. I can't remember the last time I saw a rally like that anywhere.

I can. There was one after last night's Lakers game.

I stand by my geography professor's analysis that the Iranian people are a very tough bunch. I dare say they have the ability to be a stronger and harder people than citizens of any major American city. For that huge reason I'm thinking the US and its affiliates should keep off and let the Iranian people take care of their business. They'll get it done without outside interference.

Wow, those are nice looking buses, who makes those, Khodro Diesel?

It's been a while since I've seen a video that's as emotionally stirring as that one.

It sucks...I'm sorry I did not put a warning on it. :o

I already saw the video (a former girlfriend of several years is Persian and she sent it to me), but yeah a warning is probably a good idea.
