I love you Iranian.
We can't wait to see a new real election ...let's hope for new "Republic of Iran" !
Sometimes freedom comes at a very high price – I hope the Iranians get the freedom they want and have their votes counted as cast.
Please let world know about what is going on in Iran. Please send videos and pictures to everyone the you know. Iranian poeple should be heard all over the world.
Against all odds,Democracy in Iran will prevail. Shame on those who try to stop it by means of shooting and killing the freedom lovers of Iran. Saman
God please protect your righteous! I do not want to see anyone hurt. I feel their pain.
Do you know some of those police are not Iranian? They speak arabic. Most people think they are fron Lebonan ( Hezbollah).
My prayers are with these people and the many other people who suffer in this world. The whole wide world. People suffer from everywhere.

Thanks for your quality reporting. This sure gives us in the United States perspective on elections – Our own aren't so bad are they?
It's shocking to see the images coming out of Iran. But i am glad that they are giving voice to what they believe. Despite how everything turns out, I believe overall Iran will be heading in a new direction and the people might have more voice.

My Prayers are with the "people" of iran. God Speed.
