BBC Video from Iran

June 15th, 2009

I’m not coming down on any side here. While my gut feeling is that CIA/Mossad/MI6 are throwing gasoline on the fire, I can’t point to any evidence of that. The past doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with the present, but being familiar with how the U.S. has screwed with Iran in the past, it’s very hard for me to believe that Uncle $cam’s tentacles aren’t on this thing in some capacity.

I don’t know what’s going here, but I’m definitely not going to believe my eyes just yet.

    (paraphrase from the narration)
    “When a secret policeman tried to stop us filming, the crowd turned on him and chased him away.”

    I don’t think more beautiful words have ever been spoken. Well, actually…. I can imagine, but they won’t help the putative PG-13 rating at this site.

    What I want to know is this: who paid for all the uniform-looking surgical facemasks that the protesters who wanted to protect their identity were wearing? And how many were there?
