Her name was Neda, which means voice in Farsi. According to numerous online accounts picked up by media outlets worldwide, she was shot in the streets by Iranian state police while protesting today. This is what repression looks (warning: graphic):

YESSSSSSS!!!!!
One more to take care of & I’ll be sooo happy!
Agreed. I've seen a report that the leaders claim it was some lone "terrorist" that shot her. If that were the case, why would they tell the family they could not hold services for her at a mosque or even speak of the death? Why wouldn't they come out and condemn this terrorist and show what a crime it was to kill an innocent? I think that perhaps many Iranians are, for the first time, seeing that their "holy" leaders are liars.
To put it to rest- I saw several still photos of her shot and dying- one of the shots showed her after she was hit and she’d fallen to her knees..then the ensuing photos showed the process we’ve seen in the video.
It was such a shocking series of photos I closed the site before I’d bookmarked it so I can’t give you a link.
I support those that question the election results in a peaceful manner, which is what she was doing. Has Jimmy Carter volunteered to go over and validate this election yet?
Got anyone in mind? On this thread?
Which will go nowhere.
Sometimes a revolution is the only way to throw off the yoke of oppression, especially if diplomacy doesn't work.
We had to resort to it in our country's history and look at the result.
Look in your browser History. It may still be there.
I haven’t read the whole thread......hang on...

I will say this even though you’re banned.
I will say this even though you’re unlikely to listen.
I will say this because it’s true and should be said.
You’re a vile punk, and no conservative.
Reagan stood up for the Polish people, the Nicaraguan people, the El Salvadoran people and everyone in the Soviet bloc who yearned to breathe free.
You, meanwhile, stand with Senator Infanticide. Moreover, you seem proud of your ignorance about the Iranian people and what their nation used to be before Khomeni’s freak show took over. But mostly, what stands out is that while people die in the streets because they want their votes counted, you think it’s all a big joke and nothing for the President of the United States to even have some decorum about, much less condemn.
Crawl back under your rock and repent.
Something tells me that future generations will be reading that post you cited...and wondering why we were so stupid as to allow ourselves to get here.
Excellent post. So very true.
