- Keicharones, on 07/10/2009, -1/+46Persian women are so beautiful.
- jdf718, on 07/10/2009, -1/+45Beautiful photos. I hope the regime falls.
- perrycarter, on 07/10/2009, -1/+42Those people are ballsy, very brave to go out protesting when protesters are being shot at.
- philliesphan026, on 07/10/2009, -0/+29Huh. I thought the protests ended right after Michael Jackson died.
- johnprester, on 07/10/2009, -0/+26Love that pic with the masked woman flashing the V sign in front of the fire. You can see tears in her eyes, I think.
- Elsewhere42, on 07/10/2009, -2/+19No, Persian woman are Hot!
- SirVenro, on 07/10/2009, -0/+12Michael Jackson died?!
- totallyRo, on 07/10/2009, -0/+9havent heard about the protests in a while.. i wonder wh- oh yeah some celebrities died.
- harrisbradley, on 07/10/2009, -0/+8Iranian chicks are tough
- itstodd, on 07/10/2009, -1/+9It is just an awesome thing to see such courage...
- orlandogeek, on 07/10/2009, -0/+7The protestors have been very bravely removing them in defiance.
- Elsewhere42, on 07/10/2009, -1/+9I hope this pattern continues... wave after wave of protests over many months. In time it will wear down the security forces until they give up.
- Bloodwine, on 07/10/2009, -1/+9You forgot how the CIA implants microprocessors in all our brains by black ops doctors at hospitals and they are just waiting for the right moment to unleash Project Citizen, which will turn us all into deadly assassins hellbent on killing and conquering the Middle East so we can obtain the key to the universe which is hidden in modern day Iraq.
- novenator, on 07/10/2009, -3/+10Stay strong our freedom loving friends. The world is watching.
For those of you who have not already done so, join the support network on twitter to keep the press focused on this issue. Search and use hashtags #iranelection and #neda - Zambimaru, on 07/10/2009, -0/+6Fight the power Iran
- Nudar, on 07/11/2009, -0/+4Yeah their eyes are amazing. I just wish I could see the rest of their face.
- Hillsfar, on 07/10/2009, -0/+5The Iranian people want their freedom, too.
- fightingforair, on 07/11/2009, -0/+4This is something amazing and wonderful that many 1st world leaders do not understand. The real change comes from within. It is the same for Iran and it is the same for Africa. Support is great and helps a little, but it takes its own people to make it happen.
Good luck Iran. The world is waiting. - KlogereEndGrim, on 07/10/2009, -0/+5Oh fall down some stairs will you?
I personally helped out these protesters, I was paid by no-one, so go ***** yourself. - ABEL3616, on 07/11/2009, -0/+5It seemed like everyone thought it was more important to talk about a dead celebrity, who we've been making fun of and accusing for years, rather than reporting on a country in a violent uprising against their religious leaders.
But eh, what do we know about news? - Wargala, on 07/10/2009, -1/+6While everyone on Digg "protests" from behind their computer screens.
- oriondr, on 07/11/2009, -0/+5Meanwhile all we hear about in the United States is friggin Michael Jackson is still dead.
- quaxon, on 07/11/2009, -0/+4Im leaving for Iran tomorrow. Hope i make it back in one piece!
- KlogereEndGrim, on 07/10/2009, -0/+3100% support for the protesters!
We have not forgotten you, but we lack ways of helping out! - maikrosaft, on 07/10/2009, -1/+4Have to admit, they have so much courage to come to the streets when vigilantes attack them like animals with pipe, machete and broken glass.
- superkendall, on 07/10/2009, -1/+4Word is there are still thousands of protestors in Iran, not hundreds. Please do not give up on them.
- diggimator, on 07/11/2009, -1/+3So it's St Patrick's Day in Iran?
- steinjake, on 07/10/2009, -1/+3you kind of suck
- rheaume, on 07/11/2009, -0/+2Another repug with a brain shorting out
- zomgflamer, on 07/12/2009, -0/+2People who are protesting are wearing nice cloths, driving nice cars and seems to be living in a pretty modernized area. What are they protesting exactly, change of their current lavish lifestyle?
- keloyd, on 07/12/2009, -0/+2Seriously, MLK put inordinate energy into nonviolence. He had to persuade over and over - don't fight back, don't put one foot out of line that their enemies could use against them. At one point, he sent out orders that demonstrators should be in their church clothes to look sharp. The cameras Keep the moral high ground.
Gandhi's challenges were worse yet. He went several hunger strikes in his old age to keep the Hindus and Muslims from massacring each other. The British controlled the press worse than the mullahs.
For now, I'm holding my breath. Undirected chaos does not lead to democratic reform. Look at the spoiled brat mayhem we see with football hooligans or demonstrators during the World Bank meetings in Europe. That sort of behavior is as night and day to the well-run and successful mass movements that are still in living memory. - weech, on 07/11/2009, -2/+3bring Nair
- XBebop, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Is it like Risk?
- jamiealves, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1So true, coulropheliac.
- XBebop, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Hell, in America our government is so open that if you just got 5-6 tour buses full of people you could storm the Senate building, beat the living ***** out of every one of them, and really get your message across.
Of course, you'd have to move quickly, and possibly sacrifice a few people, but hey...it's all worth it! - rheaume, on 07/11/2009, -2/+3Is this about Micheal Jackson?!?!?
- oriondr, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Wtf are you on about?
- mparker21311, on 07/10/2009, -2/+3I find it hilarious that their police force drive up on motorcycles wielding bats.
Seriously tho, I'm surprised the Iranian Revolutionaries aren't destroying these fags. - realcoolguy9022, on 07/11/2009, -0/+0This is a pretty good photo regardless. Hopefully this situation will be remedied before more die.
- iizh, on 07/11/2009, -1/+1Yeah, students are tougher than paramilitary. Oh wait...
- lonza64, on 07/11/2009, -2/+2for those of you intrested in this story i have another for you that i think you will find intriging the title is North korea: The war game
- keloyd, on 07/11/2009, -3/+2I see a disturbing trend here. Vandalism is not kosher, ever. Burning garbage and wrecking the place is not struggling for freedom. The more we seem to be supporting general thuggery, and the Iranian general public sees lawless chaos, the more those in power can see that these sheep are not ready for more freedom.
- 4AntiStupid, on 07/11/2009, -2/+1Quite a switch. Iranians struggling for freedom and Americans cheering for big government.
- srirock303, on 07/10/2009, -4/+2what biased reporting. thousands of men protesting and risking their lives and only take pics of women protesting. so what exactly are they trying to portray? lives of men are less important than women?
- fcrow, on 07/10/2009, -5/+2protesting ok, destruction of property from non government related people not.
- inactive, on 07/10/2009, -6/+1Buried for being idiotic enough to think that Ahmadinejad being elected was anything like THE vote rigging we saw seeing in America. You debase the American people with the comparison.
*Fixed.
