Among many other casualties, the demonstrations throughout Iran this weekend in defiance of the Iranian thugocracy resulted in the death of a brave Iranian woman, 16 year-old Neda Soltani. That's right, 16 years old. It's almost impossible to imagine a regime that would condone killing a 16 year-old girl involved in peaceful demonstrations. The brutal Basiji paramilitaries were responsible for her killing.
Over the past couple of days, demonstrators carrying "I Am Neda" signs are proliferating. This may not be the end of the Ahmadiddledoo/Khameni tyranny, but it's the beginning of the end. The linked article notes that religious clerics in the holy city of Qom are reported to be working to replace Khameni as "Supreme Leader."
