Violence and Pressure Builds

















Iranian speaker of parliament has condemned an attack on university students which was reported to be carried out by Islamic militia and police. Speaker Ali Larijani was quoted by ISNA:

"What does it mean that in the middle of the night students are attacked in their dormitory?”

"The Interior Ministry is responsible for this and should answer for it ... parliament is seriously following the issue"


While he did not elaborate on who executed the attacks, students blamed members of the religious Basij militia and plainclothes police. Basij is a volunteer paramilitary force loyal to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Mousavi, who spoke prior to the shooting, also condemned the attack.

"They have attacked dormitories and brutally broken legs, heads, arms and threw some of the students out of the windows and arrested a lot of people,"


Thousands of Mousavi supporters marched on Iran’s state run television station. The protest march was peaceful despite being in defiance of an official ban. Meanwhile Iranian President Ahmadinejad has left the country for meetings in Russia.

Despite an official ban on foreign journalist reporting or filming it is becoming apparent pressure has penetrated the Iranian government. What is uncertain is what this will mean for the election outcome. It also presents a few questions to my mind.
Is Mousavi simply a ploy to permit the appearance of Iranian government responding to 'the will of the people' or is this evidence of a major divide within the Theocracy? Do the mullahs recognize the potential of ongoing violence which could culminate in another revolution or has opposition to staus quo within it's ranks reached a tipping point? Has the Theocracy been informed their military and police favor the reformist agenda or is it they trust no one? There are many unanswered questions, but sometimes questions can reveal truths.

Top Marxist Communist Policies Being Implemented By Obama Throughout history Communist leaders have seized power by promoting themselves as populists, and often completely hiding their own ideology. Indeed in a poll taken after Communist Hugo Chavez' first election victory in Venezuela, only 3% of the electors believed Chavez to be a Socialist, let alone a Communist. Currently 32% of Americans believe Obama to be a Socialist. The initial stages of Communization of a country invariably begin with seven basic steps: Seizing Control Over The Free Flow Of The Nation's Money Obama has stated that he wants to convert the stock the US government now owns in the nation's banks from preferred stock, which is the case currently, to common stock. This modification in type of stock may seem irrelevant at first glance, but under further analysis it is the single greatest communist policy the US government has ever adopted: It means that the federal government will control all of the cur

Voting is Over - Reform is Waiting

With a population of 70 million, Iran is not the nation it was before or during the revolution of 1979. Life under the Sha grew repressive (following an assassination attempt) and his reign was viewed as that of a puppet government, this forged the alliance which rules today's Islamic Republic of Iran. The facts driving a push for reform in today's voting are found in demographics as well as Persian history. There are similarities in the current 'reformist' movement and the upheaval of 30 yrs ago despite that fact that more than two-thirds of Iran's present population is under 30 years old. Is history repeating itself in Iran? Mousavi's campaign has captured the most attention and has rekindled reformist tendencies of Persian people. "What I've seen on the streets of Tehran is visible in the rest of the country," says Mousavi. "There's a sense of identity, and a bravery to express a desire for change. What I have done is provide a focal

The Communist Takeover Of America - 45 Declared Goals From Greg Swank You are about to read a list of 45 goals that found their way down the halls of our great Capitol back in 1963. As you read this, 39 years later, you should be shocked by the events that have played themselves out. I first ran across this list 3 years ago but was unable to attain a copy and it has bothered me ever since. Recently, Jeff Rense posted it on his site and I would like to thank him for doing so. http://www.rense.com Communist Goals (1963) Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963 Current Communist Goals EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON.
