The News, Briefly

Despite insanely heavy security forces in the streets, there were big protests August 5th. Numerous videos show crowds chanting in different streets, subways and in other cities, and many of these videos show the day's newspaper to confirm dates shot. The Ahmadinejad-khamenei regime continues to crack down, making even more enemies and fracturing the Principalist and other conservative blocs. While capital flees to other countries, Ahmadinejad faces double-digit inflation and unemployment and other economic problems only compounded by the volatile oil markets and widespread international disgust and hatred. The offices of the Iranian Association of Journalists have been sealed. Rafsanjani is scheduled to deliver the sermon at Friday prayers August 14, but there is no confirmation he will do it yet.

Fighting to get Iran Back and Get Back to Iran.
