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.

How many people are in the streets or on strike? Is it a lot of people or just a few? What do most of the non-students say right now?

>>>> Thanks for your pure feelings and thoughts.

You're more than welcome, but we're the ones who should thank you. You're keeping us up to date, encouraging your comrades, and risking your neck for change.

I sure hope you get some help from America. I'm done encouraging you to take one course or the other, at least for now. It's your blood on the line, so I'll leave you to decide if the time is right for more aggressive action. Maybe the military will see things your way.

The bottom line: Iranian youth have proved yet again that our differences with the mideast are not racial. Persia and the west have much in common, and everyone who learns about freedom prefers it over slavery and oppression of conscience.

May this day bring you closer to your dreams, and may you, your comrades, and your family stay safe and sound.
