The present situation in Iran is quite dire. If you have happened to miss the headlines over these past few weeks, the USs government is ready to impose sanctions on Iran. This has lead to a series of empty threats, and promises of war. However, we must take Iran seriously, if they are to block the Strait Hormuz, the price of oil will nearly double.
The Iranian youth has become quite angry over the actions of their Government. They have harnessed the powers of social media and the internet to expel their frustrations, and generate support for the cause. To prevent civil upheaval, the Iranian Government has now slowed the internet, blocked many sites including social media platforms, and have given Cyber Cafe’s 15-days to install security cameras, along with take more personal information on their users.

AND REFUSES TO LET WEAPONS INSPECTORS IN! No more wars for Israel! They lied about Iraq and now they r lying about Iran! Keep r troops &$$ home!! Our govt is cracking down on our Internet usage too!
