This just in from inside of Iran...
"BBC confirms riot in South of Iran near city of Shiraz.
One killed, dozens injured.
The reason was that a local bank owned by a local Mullah took a lot money of the members and clients and people came to street to protest against that Mullah. ( rumors say the mullah stole people money).
Confirmed official stories saying that these local banks are busy washing al-qaeda money and finances in Iran too."
Update on Sunday's Demonstration...
The most recent reports I have received lead me to believe that the original numbers were likely inflated, as I reported previously.
The numbers reported widely of 2,000 demonstrators have been refuted by eyewitnesses I have heard from personally. In one location I heard credible reports of 7-10,000 demonstrators. Understand that the numbers are hard to verify due the fact that the demonstrations are scattered all over.
Behrooz has revised his estimate to 70-100,000 demonstrators. I doubt we will ever get better estimates beyond this.
"I, for one, at this point in time, would never be in favor of sending U.S. troops into another Muslim country."
Are you saying it is ok for terrorists to attack us? We should not defend ourselves?
I completely disagree with you on this issue.
