Protests in Iran Appear to Be Spreading
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - The most important regional development in recent days isn't happening in Israel or Syria, but in Iran, where the impression is that the protests against the government are spreading. Iranian-American journalist Farnaz Fassihi, who writes for the New York Times, tweeted on Monday: "I've covered Iran for 25+ years. Never seen protests this brazen, this angry, this widespread. This is serious. That's why there is a total Internet blackout. Regime is scared."
