It can also be followed on Huffington post. Warning: There are some extremely graphic videos that are on the huffington post server that youtube has taken down because of their policy about such things. One in particular is the young woman shot through the heart while standing with her father watching the demonstration. It is horrible and heartbreaking, but she has now become a rallying cry of sorts. There are posters of her popping up all over. So you are warned.

I am urging people, especially women, to wear green bracelets in solidarity with our Iran sisters and brothers – will you do it ? And tell others?

The Young woman I mentioned above is Neda. She would have turned 26 this year. She was engaged, a student and worked part time in a travel agency. She was with her music instructor (not her father as I said before) and not supporting any of the candidates. She wanted freedom.
