The first Revolution in 21 st century is developing and progressing in Iran. In order the progressive forces in Iran to direct that for a free, equal and Humane Iran, they need the help of all the progressive forces around the world. While BBC, VOA and othere mdia are trying to fabricate a reactionary leadership for this revolution( as they did in 1979 by supporting Khomeinie), the progressive forces in Iran rely on the support of progressive forces to win this battle. Spread the news and support the progressive forces in Iran to win this battle. Support the struggle of people in Iran and spread the news.
