My heart is with your people. I will be praying for your country. I have many Persian friends who love me just as much as I love them. I also had wonderful Iranian students (young boys, young men and some girls) in my English classes while I was in Ankara. I have always remembered them fondly all these years and wondered how their lives turned out. Their stories broke my heart. I hated them being so far away from their parents and siblings. I pray they are free, wherever they are....America or Canada, where they were headed. I have always worried about the families they left behind in Iran.

Anyhow, please add me to your ping list and know that I'm praying. God bless you. Be safe.

Thanks for your pure feelings and thoughts.
I have a latest update now, I can confirm sporadic clashes in City center right in front of the University Of Tehran.
I saw them myself, There is a road which just takes 10-15 minutes to get to the other crossroad, but for me and my friend in a car, it took 55 minutes to get to the other crossroad.
Police blocked the paths and roads heavily.
Special units of police investigated the bags and loads of people, mostly young people who look like students.
I saw 2 buses full of forces enroute to the clash site.
I do not know how many people were arrested or how the clashes happened there.
I am in west of Tehran right now, It is 9.35 PM
Guess that I'm 5 miles far from the University of Tehran. I will be back in a few minutes to see what is going on there.
VIVA FREEDOM
