They are at it again in Iran…..
More demonstrations in Tehran……
Saturday’s reported clashes come just days before an end-of-year deadline set by world powers for Iran to agree a U.N.-drafted deal to ship most of its low-enriched uranium abroad in exchange for fuel for a Tehran research reactor.
Tension rose again in Iran after the death a week ago of leading dissident cleric Grand AyatollahHossein Ali Montazeri at the age of 87 in the holy Shi’ite city of Qom.
Montazeri, an architect of the 1979 Islamic revolution, was once named to succeed late revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini as supreme leader.
Things remain unsettled in the country…..
