Students clash with Police in Iran


I just received a heads-up from Papa Ray, Redneck's Revenge blog, regarding an important story presently going on in Iran and the information and updates to it are presently traveling through the blogs as you are reading this.

The Spirit of Man blog is reporting that there are confirmed reports coming from inside of Iran of approximately 2000 students are clashing with security officers in the western parts of Tehran where the University campus is located. There have been many detained, about 40 police officers injured, and 200 students wounded.

Reports from sources on the ground in Iran are using digital cameras and laptops to get the word out to The Spirit of Man blog, operated by Winston and he is updating and posting as it comes in to him.

So far, his sources indicate that the protest began with a group of between 20 and 30 students then swelled into its present state, with additional students coming and joining from two other colleges. This protest could very well be a vital part of changes to come and we in the USA should all hope it does.

Here are two of the photos; I provided links on each one back to The Spirit of Man. I really don’t like posting other peoples photos, but he has given permission to sources and I want all of you to learn about it. I can only hope this succeeds and now or later someone will toss that loud mouth president of their country in the nearest trash can.

Thanx for the productive ranting. Isn't it good to be living in the US of A. Pretty scary elsewhere.
