*Today has been 40 days since Neda was killed, Marking this day memorial was planned on the side of her burial. They didn’t let Mousavi and Karrubi to enter the cemetery and clashed with people using tear gas and baton.
*Watch this video on YouTube where Fareed Zakaria has an interview with a Prof. from Iran who is the moutpiece of the government.
*My good friend Jadi has translated a Poem from Persian to English I thought I’ll share it here too.

You are afraid of Green
You are afraid of RED
You are afraid of voice
You are afraid of Silence
You are afraid of darkness
You are afraid of light
You are afraid of speech
And you are afraid of un-speakable

You are afraid of poem
You are afraid of thought
You are afraid of writings
and you are afraid of what I can not write.

Why should we,
be afraid of YOU?

Is this what you call Police?

This Saturday, Police and Basiji militia attacked people who were trying to go to one of the main squares of Tehran for another peaceful protest, similar to those peaceful protests we have witnessed last Wednesday and Thursday. Many were killed and injured during the shootings; up to 500 people were also arrested. One of the most shocking images were from a girl captured on the camera in the last minutes of her life.
This image is made from the video on which Neda a young Iranian girl were murdered by the bullets of basijis to tell Neda that WE WILL NEVER FORGET.

- The state media is accusing people of being rioters, and they even photoshop gun in the hand of people. The only video’s they show on national TV are the guards or Basiji’s being beaten by people!
Meanwhile there are images like these showing the police destroying car windows so that they can arrest people with a “reason”!
