<p>Yesterday’s massive demonstrations has been mostly non violent with people giving flowers to the riot police and walking in silence. Mousavi’s presence in the crowd of millions has given hopes to all those who voted that someone is going to support their demonstrations. Afterward with the provocative air shooting of militias group (basij) the crowd attacked their building and set fired to it  resulting in the militia’s shooting at people resulting in at least 7 deaths. You can see in <a href="http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1184614595?bctid=26415347001">this video (Channel 4 report)</a> from the shooting (Be warned-schocking images). Another video came out later from people present at the scene which shows the action that resulted in the shootings. (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSgGXMuqJlE">watch the other video here</a>).<br />
The demonstration has been so massive that even the pro-government media had to report it on their 8:30 news. </p>
<p>Take a look at <a href="http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2009/06/livetweeting-the-revolution.html">Andrew Sullivan&#8217;s coverage</a> from the situation in Iran. Andrew is writing in Green (color of Mousavi&#8217;s campaign) in solidarity with demonstrators. If you have a facebook acccount and want to show solidarity to Iranian&#8217;s you can use the following logo. Most of us Iranians are using a very similar logo saying where is our vote.<br />

<blockquote>
<p class="MsoNormal">I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today is the birthday of <i><b>Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.</b></i> His life and his words are very inspiring to me so I thought I&#8217;ll share a few quotes from him:<br /><font style="font-size: 1.25em;"><br /></font><br />
<blockquote><font style="font-size: 1.25em;">Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.</p>
<p>Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars&#8230; Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that</font>.</p>
<p></p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-52"></span><br />
</p>
<blockquote><p><b><font style="font-size: 1.25em;">Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.</font></b></p>
<p>Letter from Birmingham Jail, April 16, 1963</p></blockquote>
