Ampersand, care to make your avatar in the standard 80x80 size so it's actually possible to read it?

[Ampersand]

I could do that, but I didn't make it for this forum so much as I made it for... Everything. Guess I could use two versions, sooo. Why not.

Edit: Also, the text won't fit.

[regarding showing respect in this thread] ask yourself if you'd say this face to face to a person on the yard of a maximum security penitentiary

Umiman, you're just being a douche.

Perhaps you feel your krav maga or whatever it is you brag about all the time is so strong that you can stand on the main yard alone, but that wasn't the point of my post.  Given your history, muted for 7 days.

Damn, I hereby declare this clever.

Anyway, just because this hasn't resulted in the violent deaths of the old regime doesn't mean it isn't progress. We haven't even seen what'll be accomplished yet.

Also, Aqizzar and Il Palazzo's avatars are awesome. Il Palazzo's is epic.

[ToonyMan]

It all makes sense now with the green.

Back on topic, there's been one suicide bombing and the Basij are taking shots at people in the streets from a rooftop.

E: video footage of shootings. http://www.bbc.co.uk/persian/iran/2009/06/090620_og_tehran_shooting.shtml

E.2: And now they are dropping tear gas mixed with water from the heliocopters.

If anyone wants to help, they can twitter first aid info and help set up proxies.

[Aqizzar]

I'm sure random bursts of ill-thought aid info in 140 characters is going to help.  I hope people at least limit themselves to typing stuff they actually know.

New statements have been made on Mousavi's websites.  He's put out an extended poetic message to his supporters, in summation: he views these protests as bigger than one election, but rather a fight for all democracy; he's made his peace with god and is prepared for martyrdom; he's going back to the streets to keep leading rallies, and if he dies for it then so be it.

[chaoticag]

Being a stones throw from Iran really worries me. I shudder to think of what all the ex-policemen would do provided they escape when/if Mousavi wins this.

Aside from the goatse links and one tard saying to wash your eyes out with lemon juice if tear gassed, it's had suprisingly good first info. The news reports are also very good.

[Ampersand]

The Revolutionary Guard has taken over law enforcement from the Police.

[Strife26]

Well, my money is now on a messy revolution.
Poor country. Hopefully, bloodshed is avoided and democracy comes out on top.

So...
The Shi'ites fortress is nearly fallen, huh?
I reckon the ulama of the greater Arabia would be happy with this.

[Strife26]

I wouldn't count the Shi'ites out yet.

[IndonesiaWarMinister]

I wouldn't count the Shi'ites out yet.

Yeah, I know.
But still, this will be a huge blow up for them.

Anyway, I would say that support for Hizbullah and the various Iraqi Shi'ite "freedom" fighters will dwindle if the reformation happens in Iran.
