But he promised!



But they promised!

The first authorized, licensed and legal demonstration was supposed to happen today. A candlelight vigil for all our dead …

And shockingly, the regime has rescinded the permit!

We may also want to add that after approving the first location (which pretty neutral), the organizers were informed two two days before the event with the need of changing the location. The interior ministry ended up as the decision maker and decided on Baghdad Street, where the cemetery of the Security Forces is.
While the Organizers accepted and prepared everything until late last night, before it was all canceled.

I blame it on "reforms". sigh.

Hi,

I'm a relatively recent reader of your blog, and I wanted to express my admiration for you and your ... well, everything! Truly inspiring in every way.

I began a blog at the beginning of this year, featuring a different amazing woman each week. I'd love to feature you on it too. Here's a link to the site for you to check out:

If you're interested, please let me know and I'll email you a more specific write up about it.

Sorry to post here, but I couldn't find an email address or a "contact" button on your site.

Peace,
Shirin
