Taking it to the Streets in Iran

30 years ago, protesters were taking it to the streets in Iran, and that's when our embassy was seized. Flash forward to today, more protests are happening, but it's a far different story. They aren't out there protesting the U.S., but their own government.

One thing is certain, Ahmadinejad needs to go. But, is Moussavi any better? They kinda need to overhaul their whole government. Maybe we're seeing the beginnings of that, or will this will be another replay of Bejing 20 years ago when the government rolls in and violently squelches the protests.

The Iranians want their freedom and are fed up with what's been going on. This is getting pretty interesting.
