On the streets and in the gathering places of Iran, millions celebrated the re-election of President Bush with congratulations and discreet V for victory signs to each other.
The Student Movement Coordination Committe for Democracy in Iran (SMCCDI) Web site reports that not just a few, but millions of Iranians hoping for reform in that country are excited about President Bush and his promises of democracy for the whole region.

However, SMCCDI reports, "As Iranians and especially the younger generations have become happy, those affiliated to the Islamic regime are seen deeply worried about their future." It says the ruling regime in Iran, and all of its lobbyists and apologists, spent piles of money hoping for a Bush defeat.
They even organized a celebration in Tehran of the day the American hostages were taken in Iran in 1979, but could only manage a "few thousand professional protesters" from a city of 12 million inhabitants.
The site reports that "commemoration of one of the main Islamist act [sic] of terror ecountered another massive popular rejection."
Guess the picture of this won't be in the AJC anytime soon.

No kidding. Imagine the magnitude of their lying agenda...
I should download this to copy and shove down the throats of every idiot I hear from now on pontificating about how the whole world hates us...and our cowboy attitudes...and how all we are doing is turning moderate Muslims against us...and...and...
BTTT.
I have the distinct feeling at times that there's a bit of over-optimism coming out of various Iranian opposition groups as to the level of open opposition to the government. A lot of stuff that never really gets verified.
Gives me that "The people of Cuba will rise up against Castro if you let us invade the Bay of Pigs" feeling.
Weapons grade.......... WWWWOOOOOOWWWW!!!!
I think some folks are getting the news wrong. The date and the people in the street is about the fall of the shah and the hostage incident. Iran considers that time as their July 4th.
It would be justice if this group were the catalyst for a major overhaul in Iran. Remember, it was 'students' who were instrumental in the holding of our hostages in the Embassy for those many months. I guess THEIR kids decided the 'mullah rule' wasn't such a great idea after all!
The mood of the country was extreme depression....until Ronald Reagan got in and ta da! the militants immediately saw the light and release our people.
We can NEVER go back to those days, of Democratic leadership that refuses to face the reality of the world situation.
I believe there is a good chance the students will change their nation without an invasion. But I worry about those nuclear materials which must be seized. I am certain we have a plan in case of a revolution to go in there and seize them. We better have such a plan.
I think the Iranian students [who apparently "get it"] need to have a rumble with the liberal elitest collegiate scum at our liberal universities who voted for Kerry....it would be fun to watch. Let's start with UT!!
