gnimaerdThey have stolen Iran's election.
There are people my own age out there, being braver than I ever could be - and the old regime are trying to silence people, quash a progressive movement and keep a legally elected government out of power.
The least we can do to help those demanding to be heard - to have their government put into power - is spread the word that Mahmoud Amedinejad is trying desperately to stop from leaving the country: that there is real, desperate hunger for change in Iran and when the people finally decided to come together to make it happen, Mahmoud Amedinejad refused to let it and is now surpressing his challengers with horrifying force.
More information here and here.
At the very least, we must not and cannot be quiet now. We must make noise on behalf of those who they are trying to silence.
