Widespread opposition protests on Quds day - live blogging


As I wrote before, reformists seized the opportunity to arrange for a widespread protest on infamous Quds day rally and here we have some video footage of these events.

This is stunning, crowd in Shiraz city don’t pay attention to what mullah want them to shout. They refuse and chant their own slogans. Mullah (in the background) shouts “Death to Israel” but people chant “Death to Russia” and they continue to shake the very foundation of Quds day by chanting “No Gaza, No Lebanon, I die for Iran”:




"No Gaza, No Lebanon, I die for Iran" is today's opposition chant and Isfahan city is no exception (some translated it to "Neither Gaza nor Lebanon, my Life for Iran" or something like that). They continue chanting “Confession (false confessions on show trials), torture does not deter us”:




In this video form Tehran, protesters chant in support of Karroubi (another opposition figure) and against dictator:




While speaker in background chants against Israel and America people refuse and chant “Death to Russia” in Tehran:




Protesters chant in support of Mousavi, Karroubi and Khatami in Tehran:




On this video, people warn Ahmadinejad by chanting “Ahmadi this is the last message, Green movement is ready to revolt!"

Look at the green crowd in Tehran heading towards Freedom (Azadi) Sq. Iranian state-own TV carefully censors all this and instead they will produce a propaganda report and air it on TV.




On this video camera man is among the pro-green crowd (above video), shooting the event, says "Quds day, 11:05am". Though conservatives were shouting against Israel and USA but mass pro-green protesters were chanting "Death to Russia" instead, in Tehran. You need to pay attention to hear conservative voice in the middle of pro-green protesters.

Here people chant “coup d'état government resign, resign” and “liar, liar, where is your 63 percent (vote)?”

Cell phone services shutdown in some areas in Tehran and internet blockage is in extreme level. Even email services like Gmail and Yahoo are restricted now.

Parleman News and other sources reported that a group of Ansar Mojahedin (radical conservatives) attacked former president Khatami. People and his guards protected him and he left the scene without a delay.







Mousavi appeared among pro-Ahmadinejad crowd! I received reports that they assaulted him but he was like always kept cool.




Basij militia and armed forces attacked protesters in different areas of Tehran. They detained some protesters; I don't have figures yet.

This photo shows that a pro-Ahmadinejad wants to attack Mousavi:

Hi,

If you are in the USA or any other country and the Government of Iran is blocking your "Tweets" from Twitter...I have another solution, that works just like "Twitter"...but should be 'under the radar' of the Iranian Government (at least for now).

Its brand new...and is almost exactly like Twitter...but really better.

You can sign up for a FREE account at: Sokule...and contact your family and friends in Iran...to sign up for a free account also...this way you can communicate with them...just like you would do using Twitter.

I hope this helps...as I know many people in Iran and here in the USA and around the world do not support the current government of Iran,
