Frontpage Interviews guest today is Amir Fakhravar, an Iranian writer, student leader and former political prisoner. Currently he serves as president of the Iranian Freedom Institute and is Secretary General of Confederation of Iranian Students.
FP: What is the state of the Iranian Green Revolution a year after?
Fakhravar: Last year, millions of Iranians took to the streets to protest the fraudulent election of Ahmadinejad and shocked the leaders of the Islamic Republic. For the first time, ordinary citizens and world leaders alike witnessed in plain view the divide between the Iranian people and their government.
Fearing his own demise, the Supreme leader responded by unleashing his thugs to arrest, torture, and murder enough people to crush the protests. His solution to quell the protests had two results. One, the Iranian peoples demands extended far beyond their votes being counted. Now, they were content with nothing less than a regime change and were willing to pay the price. Two, a powerful symbol for this movement was created by the murderous hands of this regime: Neda.
Every important date, such as Ashura, thereafter became a nightmare for the regime. Their armed forces had to occupy all the major streets and intersections in the major cities of Iran. Their crimes against unarmed Iranians became more and more heinous- running over people with cars on the streets, horrific sexual crimes against prisoners and so on.
A year later, contrary to what some analysts predicted, the Green Revolution has endured victoriously. It has evolved from its infancy to a purposeful and experienced movement that is planning for the right moment to inflict a final blow to this regime.

Every time he traveled inside the country he would return and claim to have been in a prison. He injured his knee in a car accident and claimed he had been tortured while in prison.
At a time he was claiming there was shoot on sight order against him, he openly visited the other infiltrated agent Akbar Ganji in EVIN PRISON, while the latter was building up his background.
Does anyone imagine that a fugitive with a shoot on sight order on him could (or would) visit this notorious prison and leave at will??? Without being recognized?
THE Mullahs think we are stupid and quite often WE ARE!!
