Iran protest squelched

A demonstration for women's rights was scheduled for today in Iran's capital. I told a few of my Iranian friends that I would be with them in spirit today, for which they expressed their appreciation. Unfortunately, the rally was suppressed violently by thugs employed by the regime, although it appears there were no deaths or serious injuries. A photo essay appears here, and a more detailed account may be found here, with additional information and updates elsewhere on the Regime Change Iran blog.
