The rumors of the demise of the power of the people have been greatly exaggerated.

Na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye.

First Tunisia, Now Egypt. These are pretty exciting developments. Egypt has the largest population of any of the Arab countries. If they could peacefully achieve democracy then i really cant wait too see what the ripple effects will be in places like Tehran, Were there is a demonstration planned for Monday.

Maybe you're unaware...but Iran doesn't exactly let their people hold open demonstrations. The last time it happened, people were beaten and killed and that was long before the recent developments in Egypt. What do you think is gonna happen THIS time around!?!?

Where the Egyptian government promised not to harm/kill civilians, I'm sure the Iranian leadership will have no qualms at all using deadly force to put down a potentially coup-causing rebellion.

Also, unlike Egypt, Iran really doesn't care if civilian-shot video footage of people being beaten/killed makes international news. The only reason Egypt cared about stopping the release of such footage was because Mubarak actually thought he would be able to stay in his seat of unscrupulous power.

Ultimately though....we can be fairly certain that the Iranian leaders would not be so willing to peacefully step down -- really it's a wonder that Mubarak did. Unfortunately I think that such an event taking place in Tehran would result in some of the greatest human rights violations we've seen in recent years. Perhaps the end result of it all would be international condemnation of Iran -- but again, they're already disliked by most of the world community, they simply don't care.
