Another day of crowds and mourning in Iran

Reuters:

Tens of thousands of supporters of defeated presidential candidate Mirhossein Mousavi gathered in downtown Tehran on Wednesday for a fifth day of protests against last week's election result, witnesses said.

Mainly dressed in black and also wearing wristbands and headbands in Mousavi's green campaign colors, they assembled in Haft-e Tir square and streets around it, the witnesses said. Most of the protesters were silent and making victory signs.

One street leading to the square was packed for several kilometers, witnesses said.

At least one young woman held a picture of one of those killed during post-election violence that has rocked Iran since official results of the election were announced on Saturday, showing Ahmadinejad had won by a landslide against Mousavi.

For people with a conscience it would be difficult to deal with disappointing so many people. For the religious bigots in charge of Iran, it is just another day to plan more oppression. So far, their plans have not worked. I expect things to get worse and more dead to mourn before this is over with.
