I'm amazed that even the liberal press is ignoring this.

Do you think it's being overstated.........?

Do you think the (Iran free press?) is trying to gain int'l support to force the mullahs out through opinion and condemnation?

From the same source:

Not far from Tehran, in Karaj, the house of the Friday Prayer leader was set on fire copying the similar action by the people in Fereydoon Kenar .

In Yazd, between 7000-8000 people gathered in Atlasi Sq and attacked the known regime agents.

In Booshehr, one revolutionary guard is reported killed.

In Shiraz, the people attacked government agents who were filming them and broke their cameras.

In Kerman, the people were shouting, Referendum, Referendum, This is the cry of nation.

In Sarab, Azarbijan, where the people have a fierce reputation for their fighting capabilities, the local Baseejis were on the run while shouting Allah-Akbar.

As in last year Iran's Kurdistan contained the biggest scenes of celebrations. Huge bonfires were reported from Marivan and Sannadaj, with the youth openly taunting the regime's forces.

Even in many other places throughout Iran where the celebrations were less political, young boys and girls circled around bonfires, held hands and danced to the music. An unthinkable act in the month of Moharram, even in the pre-Isalmic revolution of 1979.

So on a night where the Islamic state run TV even resorted to showing popular American films to encourage the people of Iran to stay indoors, the fire of Zarathustra remained defiant and rekindled.

If this is related to having a stable democracy in the Middle East (Iraq), then I'm not surprised that the media isn't covering it. The media doesn't want to cover anything that might make President Bush look good, including signing a constitution and getting the oil flowing again. They'd rather focus on the new Spanish president declaring Iraq as a failure.

I read earlier that there is even better news. I read that the oil workers have gone on strike and the doctors and nurses are expected to go on strike as well.
