Iran Global Day of Action - Democracy at its Finest

Iran's government crackdown to forbid mourning fallen protestors just shows the desperation and insecurity of the current regime. They know they have no more rightful claim to govern, if they must counterfeit election results. Their people are against them. Even despite threats of bloodshed from Supreme Leader Ayatullah Ali Khamenei, millions of protestors have come out in defiance.

The democratic world should certainly support these peaceful demonstrations, only turned to acts of terror and bloodshed by Iran's revolutionary guard. Last week's Worldwide Day of Protest against the Iranian regime may have fallen on some deaf ears, but its civil, peaceful protests showed support for the Iranian people and was truly democracy at its finest:

According to all of the reports I'm reading, this is just the beginning of the opposition. Let us hope that Iran will soon achieve democracy and that they will soon be able to enjoy freedom: America's most precious possession.
