Karoubi again announced today that he would not recognize the current government and would continue to stand by the people in their quest for their rights – even if it took the rest of his life.

Anyone know where to find the text or audio/video of Ayatollah Bayat-Zanjani's statement?

Thanks!

Good stuff!

Glad to hear another Ayatollah is speaking out against the government's violence.

Thank you so much for continuing to post this daily. I really appreciate it.

Can you elaborate about this: "Sources indicated that they had asked twitter users from Tehran to NOT text each other using the service because it could be a ploy by the government to find dissidents."

Excellent brief (as always). It matches our own info and we've linked to you.

Can you offer any further info on the report re Rafsanjani and Friday prayers?

Night Owl, there was a post made 2 days ago, alleging censorship on Twitter:

As it is now some of the Iranian users of Twitter appear to be under censure, in the sense that they can post on Twitter but their messages will not appear in searches.

The consequence of this is that whenever one of these blocked accounts posts a message containing '#iranelection', the message won't be visible for people searching for #iranelection.

I am not sure how many are affected but I have noticed that at least 10 twitters are blocked on searches, and most of them are very active posters.

I have tried to contact Twitter but have not received any explanation for why this is occurring.

Any explanation would be appreciated.

Have you experienced this or received any reports about it? If not, could you verify whether this is occurring to any of your sources who use the #iranelection tag.

If it's accurate, and we can show that this is occurring fairly systematically, we may be able to interest the mainstream media (at a time when coverage is otherwise sorely lacking).

I know a couple of people I can forward this is to, so would really appreciate hearing your take.

Other than that, thanks once again. It never ceases to amaze me how much you're able to draw from so many tiny pieces.
