ncialNsight: This is a translation of Iranian blogger that is so many things: sad, triumphant, thoughful, hopeful, fearful and incredibly brave.

The original link in Farsi is here.

This blog snippet makes me so hopeful and so scared at the same time. This is such a critical moment: Is this Romania or is this Tianamenn Square? But it is more than that, there is a cultural divide that is being shattered with the pictures and the tweets and the blogs and the videos. The Muslim cartoon villiany is falling apart before the neocons eyes.

I really don't have too much to add to this. It's just that I remember watching the Berlin wall come down and the Romanian flags with the centers cut out of them and how the Cold War truly disappeared before our eyes. Those were scary times, these are scary times, let us remember that this isn't just a chance for Iran, this is a chance for the world.

Tomorrow I will make an essentially meaningless and small gesture (some may say egotistical) to show my solidarity with this blogger. I will wear green and hope he or she survives to see the better future they helped to create.

Green

Peace
