I saw the report. The reporter in Iran makes it sound as though there are no protests but Twitter bloggers in Iran are contradicting that report.

He was referring to police and military force.

Regardless of the number of troops, police, thugs, etc. and the level of their arms if enough people confront them they are going to be overwhelmed. If they barricade themselves for protection then the crowd only has to gather in a different place.

I am certainly calling for a suicide attack on them, just noting that if they are intent on overthrowing the regime it can be done. My heart and prayers go out to them. It doesn’t take a great stretch of the imagination to see something similar being needed right here at home to take back America.

Just heard on Fox our coward in chief may be saying something. Probably side with the cowardly leaders; rather than the people. I love the way our coward in chief is always talking about power to the people when he means power only to him.

He has to step down.

This isn't necessarily true. The Mullahs and Imanutjob have been releasing crap all week trying to make people think protest gatherings are off. They even laid traps by saying people should meet at X spot to support Mousavi and then arrested the people who showed up. The gov in Iran are real jewels/SAR.

The people will protest anyway.

They are trying to keep you home by stories of beatings. Do not listen to new tweeters saying go home they are gov thugs. #iranelection

Photos frm Iran consistent w/what contacts have said. Rally still on and heavy security in rally area #iranelection

#IranElection CNN admits twitter reports more reliable than Iran State TV. In other news, boiling water is hot.
