The terror that has taken over Iran the past several days following the June 12 Presidential election has the entire world watching and weeping. Last week, Iran's Guardian Council declared President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad the winner of the election with 62.63% of the vote, surprising many experts and supporters of Mir Hossein Moussavi, who many expected to win.




Despite stern warnings from IGC, tens of thousands of demonstrators angry over election results have been protesting, most recently in a public square Monday in Tehran. According to hospital sources, at least 19 people were killed in clashes in Tehran on Saturday alone, but unconfirmed reports put the total number killed at over 150.
