Fourth night of protest in Iran

"Gunfire was heard in central Tehran on Friday night as Iranian students and other stone-throwing protesters clashed with security forces in a fourth night of anti-government demonstrations."

"One Palestinian by going to paradise can send 300 Israelis to hell," he (Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, Iran's former president) said of suicide bombing attacks. "This is more powerful than atomic bombs." It is interesting to see the warped religious perspective of the enemy. All their human bomb attacks have done is bring misery to the Palestinians and renewed determiniation to fight them by Israel and the US. Iran now finds itself surrounded and still it postures like god is on its side.

"...the prevailing view among US 'hawks' is that pressure on Iran is working and the regime will collapse from within. Adopting a more confrontational attitude, the State Department said on Thursday it applauded the Iranian demonstrators and that the US 'fully supports their aspirations to live in freedom.'"

"...The US accuses Iran of supporting militant Palestinian groups, such as Hamas, and harbouring fugitives of al-Qaeda, while seeking to destabilise Iraq. US concerns are also focused on Iran's extensive nuclear programme, which it believes could yield nuclear weapons in about three years."

The article does not mention the US concern that Iran is the chief sponsor of terrorism in the world including the terrorist organization Hizballah.
