Think when communications are 'secure' and things are quieter; Mousavi will be taken on a long, one-way ride.
Meantime, just heard that several British Embassy personnel have been arrested for their 'participation' in uprising. Of course, we had none there; but think, thanks to Obama; our American Reps are on the way.
Another stupid pet trick from Obama. . .perhaps they will delay their departure?
