Iranian protesters and people following the demonstrations globally have again taken to Twitter to discuss the events and post coverage in real time.
Using the hash tag #iranelection, people in Iran are posting pictures and videos from the protests as well as arranging places to meet.
On YouTube, footage is being uploaded regularly, bypassing the limited and often biased coverage from mainstream press sources who are associated with the Iranian government
Follow the discussion live on Twitter:

These people dying for freedom would have half a chance if the President of the US would stop supporting the Islamic slaughterers in power. The worst president at the worst time. Obama wants to enrich their uranium. Got that?

huge support to the protesters in Iran, who do not allow to suppress their freedoms!!!!!!!

i love how they simultainiously support the destruction of the country who granted them the most freedom they have ever had (under the rule of the shah)while protesting thier govts refusal to grant them freedom.
the real news story would be iranian protest remains peacefull, violence is inherant in thier social order
