Phillyharper, you are the man! Keep watching this and let us know what is going on. I wouldn't be surprised if somehow our government was involved. I also wouldn't be surprised if when they fix it, they include the ability for our government to spy on Iran.

Just what in the hell is going on? Thats the third in three days! These wires are as thick as your arm and have 8 layers of protection, they don't just snap when a fish sneezes on them. It seems strange to me that three would break inside a week, but what's stranger is that there are reports of a total blackout in Iran...
