Iranian Alert: Protests start for 6th night in Tehran... Huge Turnout Expected

Student Movement Coordination Committee for Democracy in Iran (SMCCDI) ^ | 6.15.2003 | Press Release

[DeepDish]

"Earlier today, sporadic clashes happened when groups of plainclothes men attacked forming gathering of young Iranians."

Your own people are going to have to deal with this. You need to form triplets of
people with the discipline to observe these attacks without interfering. Follow the group
of thugs, and pick off "tail end charlie". In these groups there is always some stupid
ba$tard that misses the signal to move on and gets himself seperated. It will be the most
heartwrenching thing to endure seeing someone beaten, stabbed, and maybe slain.
But, disciplined action will reduce casualties in the long run.

[hellinahandcart]

At several occasion, brutal plainclothes men were captured by the demonstrators and were attached to trees.

"attached to trees" has just entered the FR lexicon. :D

[hellinahandcart]

tained?

Does that mean "attached to trees"?

[dixiechick2000]

"will keep you up to date via Persian satellite TV news, pics and other coverage."

Thank you, freedom44!

[McGavin999]

Thanks freedom, I keep forgetting that it's summer over there and the people won't be out on the streets until after it cools off. I should know better since I live in Phoenix but I still stuck to the computer most of the night hoping for news.

May God send a host of angels to protect the people.

[Travis McGee]

Here's to all of the mullahs being "attached to trees" and soon!

[Amelia]

Sending prayers .. they'll need them

Me too.

[DoctorZIn]

...Caller from Tehran said several members of Basiji have been tied up and tained....

and tained? Do you know what they mean?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Thanks, I got an early start this morning!

[The KG9 Kid]

That's great... We're going to have to remember the phrase 'Attached to a tree' for future events.

[hellinahandcart]

I just love that phrase. It's funny, it's sinister, and it projects a real "can-do" attitude, all at the same time.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

It's French.

[MoJo2001]

God Bless the Iranian students. May God grant their wish. It will be a Blessed day in the world when another group of people truly have freedom again. Prayers being sent for all their safety. Praise today goes out to them for their bravery and courage.

[hellinahandcart]

Too bad, we're stealing it.

[Travis McGee]

"tained" could have been "detained" with the "de" dropped in an email?

[Free Trapper]

Probably tained should have been "detained".

RE #21

Yes, some basic guerilla tactics are in order. In addition to your tactic, they should create many small groups of at most a few dozen, and move into an unguarded place and do a quick protest to draw attention of vigilantes and escape into alleys before thugs get to them, only to regoup again in another unguarded place and protest again. This would make vigilantes really disoriented.

[Travis McGee]

No doubt about it, "attached to trees" has entered the lexicon!

I just wonder if they are using rope, or nails?
