Tweet & Media Updates:

The sense of threat against the opposition was growing. Reuters reported that Mohammadreza Habibi, the senior prosecutor in the central province of Isfahan, warned demonstrators they could be executed under Islamic law.

"We warn the few elements controlled by foreigners who try to disrupt domestic security by inciting individuals to destroy and to commit arson that the Islamic penal code for such individuals waging war against God is execution," Mr. Habibi said, according to the Fars news agency. It was not clear if his warning applied only to Isfahan or the country as a whole, Reuters said.

Tweet from Tuesday Rally: Demonstration today was really good and effective I think. For the martyrs we kept silent and some people had objection signs ... tomorrow will be another rally but this time every one will be in black & silent. Mir Hossein has said he would be there. (I don't think most of these is just for Mir Hossein, he was the excuse for everything else).
