Tehran is On Fire

Tehran is currently on fire according to all news report coming from the Iranian capital. The Iranian youth especially from the university students are extremely angry after the announcement of the presidential elections. You probably know that Ahmedinajed has won another presidential term after strange and short vote count if I may say.
Honestly I wish that Mousavi had won the elections. By the way if Mousavi that does not mean that Iran will declare the end of its nuclear program nor it will declare the start of peaceful relations with Israel on the contrary but enough is enough from the conservatives, the world needs some rest. Already Ahmedinajed gives Israel a good opportunity to ask for another unneeded war in the region.
Now Tehran is on fire technically and literally ,the students are chanting the songs that brought down the shah, the girls are taking off the black veil and the anti-riots forces are made. The city is on fire.
First of all here is the a slide show from Mousavi’s flickr account , it shows you Iran streets’ after elections

I should recommend you to head for Naj’s blog because she is covering the whole situation better than anybody.
Now  the Iranian regime has blocked facebook and Youtube and currently the Iranian regime is surrounding the houses of the three Presidential candidates , of course Mousavi’s house is being under a siege now.
The anti-riots forces are said to be using live bolts against the protesters.
Update No.1 : 
  • The Iranian regime has blocked the internet and currently the mobile phones are dead in the internet !!
  • The reporters' cameras are said to be smashed.
  • International calls are said to be blocked too currently !!! 
  • Mousavi has sent a message to his followers to keep calm, I do not think they will.
  • Experts in Iranian affairs are speaking about a war between the conservatives and reformists in Tehran ,specifically between ٌRafsanjani and Khamenei , Rafsanjani is said to resign from his position as the chairman of the assembly of experts where Khamenei is said to be currently very weak !!"I do not see how but I know that the streets of Tehran and Iran in general will determine the results of that war" 
Update No.2 :
  • Ahmedinajed is speaking now to the Iranian people about pressure from outside ..etc :(
  • Of course here are the Iranian People

Updates No. 3 : 
  • It seems that the clashes are going from bad to worse ,the footage in Al Jazeera is not good.
  • There are news saying that both Mousavi and Karoby 
  • Mousavi's campaign has just sent this tweet : 
 ALL internet & mobile networks are cut. We ask everyone in Tehran to go onto their rooftops and shout ALAHO AKBAR in protests 
  • If this happens for real ,it will be historical
  • Al Alam Channel is in lala land.
  • According to reporters those protesters are young generation the 25 years old
  • I was watching a live show from Tehran on Al Jazeera when you can hear the sound of bolts !!
  • I think Tehran won't sleep tonight.
  • Here are more video clips from the protests : 

  • Check out Revolutionary Blog from Iran , it is fantastic ,it is full of photos and videos of the protests, I highly recommended
  • I just received a tweet that the students in Tehran have managed to occupy some University there , is that true ??

  3. Zeinobia, what happned didn't surprise me, I mean being on fire not the results, since the tension between the 'reformits' & 'conservatives' before and during the elections generated the amount of pressure that exploded after the results.

    The question now is where shall this lead Iran to either localy or internationaly.
