Iran Protests are Increasingly Revolutionary

I'm taking a break from a weekend full of articling applications (ugh) to note a new development in Iran. There seems to have been a sea-change in the protests there. They have gone from being about an election result to about bringing down the government. This is a good thing. Iran's system of theocracy is deeply corrupt and needs to change. A revolution is the only true way to do that.

Persiankiwi (http://twitter.com/persiankiwi) has some very interesting tips on how to disable the Iranian government, which indicate this trend.

I promise I will try to get to something on domestic politics, but that might be a few days off. Suffice to say, Iggy = Stephane II.

    Revolutionary? No. These protests are counter-revolutionary, undemocratic and against the Iranian people.

    Why do you support the schemes of the CIA and the imperialists to destabilise Iran and overthrow true leaders like President Ahmadinezhad, the same way they plot against his brother Hugo Chavez Frias?
