More from Iran

Tehran Bureau is back, re-routed.

More pictures on Tehran 24.

On Twitter, I rec. SadeqEn one of the few still with internet connection and giving disturbing updates as events unfold. Also iran09.

iran09 has a lot of (poor quality, looks like it's mostly coming off phones) vids on YouTube.

Part of me thinks, push, push! But then, looking at the pictures - what is worth getting hurt/killed for?

I am very, very relieved that the current US president isn't looking for an opening to go after sites in Iran. If Bush was still in office I'd be very afraid.

No one wants to see blood in the street

But without revolutions there would have been no USA or modern Britain. Whether this turns into revolution or Tiannenmen Square remains to be seen but the only other option is to lie down and let the machine roll over you.

In many ways the most interesting part of it all is, who would have thought that Twitter would become the Voice of the Revolution? :O)
