Three days ago, students in a small University in the northern province of Mazandaran started a protest against the oppressive policies of the Islamic Republic. While student protests are nothing new in Iran, this time there is something indeed new. In three days, students have started a blog and have managed to fill it with pictures and statements. There is also footage from the kidnapping of one of the students by the Police in the blog. There is even more to that. In fact, one of the pictures taken in the protest shows a banner which invites people to follow the events through the blog. I have no idea what this people are asking for, but the fact that freedom of speech has went one, rather big, step forward is thrilling.

why the young iranians keep sitting down in silence instead of shooting this evil regime crimes and show them to the world. today it is much more easy than before.
