Iran

OMG I am so saddened and horrified with what is happening in Iran today. If you go to your twitter, do a search for #iranelection, tehran, or iran you can read live updates from Iranians trying to get their stories heard. People, mostly young, have taken to the streets to protest the rigged election of Ahmadinejad. The government has shut down all news stations and the only way these people can get out information to the rest of the world is through twitter, facebook and youtube because these social networks are not run by Iran. By updating with news, videos and pictures these people are putting themselves at risk because the gov't can track them down and find them, kill them, their families etc. Do your part by setting your Twitter time zone to GMT+3:30 Tehran to jam the network. By making the list of 'Iranians' larger, the Iranian government will have a harder time filtering through everything and finding those 'guilty' of reeporting the truth about their corrupt country.

I have perused the #iranelection search and I saw a link to a youtube video of a beautiful young woman who was shot in the street. She looked into the camera as blood spilled out of her mouth and nose and she died as the people trying to save her screamed in outrage and agony. It's unbelievable. God save those innocent people who are brave enough to fight for justice...for a fair vote.
