Don't know if anyone is following the goings on of Iran or not, but I figure this could be the discussion place for it.
Dissident leader Ayatollah Montazeri died today, he spoke out against religion interfering in state business and argued the current leadership is fraudulent. Those in charge are trying to get a funeral planned and finished by 9 am local time so no protesters can gather around and make him a kind of martyr.
Iran just let everyone know they beat protesters to death in jail.
Protests are still going strong since the middle of June.

I pay attention to Iran just because they hate us, want to nuke us and may or may not have the capability to do so. Their internal politics, not so much. There is little I can do about the internal politics of Iran and the Prime Directive applies either way.
