The Iranian opposition leader Mirhossein Mousavi is under 24-hour guard by secret police and no longer able to speak freely to supporters, according to the film director Mohsen Makhmalbaf.

(Kind of a cryptic reference.. and haven't heard anything on cable news, so not certain exactly what this means, although it's been "tweeted and facebooked" by commentators such as Reza Aslan as house arrest)

1. That he is alive is amazing

when he went underground, I thought "they have killed him"

I do not think he is out of the woods as far as his personal safety yet.

Yeah, my tin hat is tight today, but seriously.

2. KO referenced that arrangements were being made in Iran for special "trials and prosecutions" of

Mousavi and protestors. Sounds eerily familiar, doesn't it? Gitmo anyone?

3. Unbelievable.. this information was posted and available 24 hrs ago. Cable news only now

reporting it. Behind much ? Twitter/Facebook really ARE the wave of the future.

5. Well they are TRYING to confirm it

not realizing that the PATTERNS on Twitt and other places are clear and ahead of them... by quite a bit.

ALso I have noticed that the pro regime boosters in Tweet have gone down

4. Things are just getting hotter

that is what is amazing.

Oh wait, seems I should care about a certain MIA governor who went to Argentina.

6. I'm so confused.. right now I'm having to watch Fox for Iran news, but wait,

Fox showed the presser with Sanford as a (D). But MSNBC is only covering Sanford and 2012. I think I better stick with Twitter. :crazy:

7. Twitter and myspace, are my sources for real hard news

and also BBC

For commedy... MSNBC

Though Blakeman saying we need to purge our party... has certain ahem Stalisnit undertones that fit the OTHER stories
