Something Is Happening In Iran

A HuffPost reader writes:

"My next door neighbor is an Iranian immigrant who came here in 1977. He just received a SAT phone call from his brother in Tehran who reports that the rooftops of nighttime Tehran are filled with people shouting 'Allah O Akbar' in protest of the government and election results. The last time he remembers this happening is in 1979 during the Revolution. Says the sound of tens of thousands on the rooftops is deafening right now."


That would be around four in the morning. The last time a news event gave me chills like this was the Soviet coup. It ended the regime.
