1. rahmin: A backer of Mir Hossein Mousavi helps evacuate an injured riot-police officer during riots in Tehran on June 13, 2009. (OLIVIER LABAN-MATTEI/AFP/Getty Images) # (via Iran’s Disputed Election - The Big Picture - Boston.com) This photo is very powerful. This conflict is not between the young Iranians depicted here. It is between a theocracy that has held down a people for 30 years and the peoples will for freedom and connection with the broader world. The youth will not fight each other for the power struggle of older theocrats. If I were Ahmadinejad or Khamenei I wouldn’t sleep easy tonight. wow.
