According to National Review Online's Michael Ledeen in his piece "Turning Point," July 9th--yes, that's tomorrow--will be the 3rd anniversary of a massive student rally against the current regime.
Ledeen notes increasing signs that *something* is going to happen and soon. Another huge rally tomorrow could be the explosive populous event needed to topple the regime's already tenous hold on power!
So, I'm saying my God Speed prayers for the Iranian people, who I've heard are desperate for Freedom and all that implies.
I've been wanting this to happen for them since the Ayatollah marched into town so many moons ago.
Iran, Let Freedom Ring!
(And maybe President Bush's June 24th speech wherein he stated that the U.S. would help any country that wanted democratic reforms was just the impetus the Iranian people needed!)
