Seems like many Iraninas are not willing to give up protesting. Something's
happening here. What it is ain't exactly clear.

Neda Aga-Soltan was killed during the protests and a video of her death
was all over the 'Net. Now it's the fortieth day since her death, and,
according to tradition, a memorial was held at her gravesite. Then the cops
showed up, accompanied by Basiji.

They broke up the gathering, put hundereds under arrest, and ran off
Mirhossein Mousavi.

According to reports, mourners rallied later on at the Grand Mosala,
"a big prayer venue in central Tehran".

Looks like the Fat Lady has yet to sing.

@George,
My God, George. I found the video. I knew nothing of it until you posted this Iran/Persia thread.
