Will democracy and free speech survive
the efforts of the Islamic Republic to stifle them?
by Julie Jigawnovich
I messaged my friend, Adrenaline, who is in Tehran now.
He and his friends voted for Mousavi or Kourubi for president
of Iran. They are protesting the claims Ahmadinejad
is making that he won the election.

Yesterday
5:25pmJulie
when you voted for Mousavi, what change were you hoping for?
5:26pmAdrenaline
obviously, if we start a another revolution, we will be like afganistan
but with the right president we can reach our goals!
5:28pmJulie
how will you be like afganistan?
what are your goals?
5:29pmAdrenaline
its so complicated. we want democracy, free speech, freedom!,
having respect in international and so many other things that you
already know.
5:30pmJulie
do you want diplomatic relations with the US?
5:30pmAdrenaline
that's what everyone wants--but not being used by other countries.
independence is the most important thing for iran
5:32pmJulie
some of the amadi supporters probably think he is independent.
but he is too mean sometimes. he makes it too easy for zionists to
talk about war with iran. real independence is very hard to find.
5:34pmAdrenaline
i cant speak for all of the people!
5:34pmJulie
US wants to be independent. in reality we are becoming economic slaves.
we owe so much money to China.
5:34pmAdrenaline
i just giving u my opinions
5:35pmJulie
i am also just giving my opinions.
but it is so nice to be able to talk!
5:35pmAdrenaline
true!
5:36pmJulie
i'm going to write letters. the white house pays attention when people take the time to write letters. talk to you later, Adrenaline!
