It's "Official" - President of Iran is Reelected

The election results are official - Iranian President Ahmadinejad has been reelected. There's just a little problem - there's a lot of Iranians who don't believe that.

And now we are seeing an historic event - a revolution perhaps - unfolding in Iran. The threat seems very real to those in power. There are many messages, photos, and videos going out on computers, phones, and other devices on such media as Twitter and Facebook. And now the government there is jamming those.

There have been arrests, injuries, and deaths, including one young woman who was killed by security forces. All in all, a dictatorship in action.

What will happen in the days, weeks, and months ahead is yet to be seen. This is exciting, scary, and hopeful all at once. Word still gets out and around within Iran's borders.
