watching cnn, remembering 20 years ago

This time, from a distance. The show of number by people, the quite period of the power, then the characterization of the movement as against the country, and "western power backing" routine with no details(still no such foreign meddling was eventually shown by evidence 20 years after it was used as one of the reason for cracking down in Tain'anmen square), the escalation on the street.

Iranian people are brave, determined, and very smart. The rooftop shouting at night, the changing of tactics for demonstration, and continuation with communication channels clamped down and clear leaders missing, god I didn't think I'd see history of such scale happen in front of my eyes again in my life. Justice and people's rights will win in the end.
