Countdown To June 12

Scott Lucas has the latest from the Greens:

We’ve known for days that opposition figures have been building up their challenge to the Government, but it’s today, with the revelation of the meeting between Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi on Monday, that you know the wave has hit.

One of our Iranian readers writes:

Karoubi and Mousavi's call for a protest on June 12 defiantly surprised the regime, forcing it to go back into the high alert again, which disproves the false sense of normalcy they are so eager to impose. They will surely do everything to stop it but it increases the pressure on them.
