A Revolution in the Making? The Latest from Iran

Monday, June 22, 2009

We’re following the latest news from Iran. Authorities in Iran now acknowledge that the number of votes "cast" in 50 cities exceeded the actual number of voters. This comes after the country’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei asserted that the vote count in the presidential election was fair. Thousands of Iranians clashed with police as they defied an ultimatum from Khamenei to end the protests. We are joined by Robert Dreyfuss, a contributing editor for The Nation, who recently returned from covering the Iranian elections and Baqer Moin, former head of the BBC's Persian language service and author of the book Khomeini: Life of the Ayatollah.

"Anything happens and half an hour later is on YouTube or somewhere else. This is really a new vibration that didn't exist at all in Iran."
