The US can keep the Iranian people informed. US based NITV (an privately funded Pro US Iranian broadcast into Iran) should be supported financially. It is very poor and needs funding to stay on the air.

The Iranian people need a catalyst for change. They need something to prompt them to action. The media is critically important for this. Not long ago NITV called on the people of Iran to go to the streets and protest and it caused a large number of protests around the country.

The Iranian government has been using French technology to jam the broadcasts. Interestingly, Fox news has been one of the few broadcasts into Iran that appear to make it through the jamming.

Our ability to speak to the Iranian people when events in Iran heat up could be most critical in supporting their efforts.

"The Iranian government has been using French technology to jam the [pro-Democracy] broadcasts."

You don't say?! Sources on this?
