Too bad all communications have been cut so we can't see what is happening.   I wouldn't count the mullahs out yet.   They are probably killing the protesters in mass right now and will sweep it under the rug and call it good tomorrow.

We will see what happens in the next 48 hours.   Horrible atrocities, but don't know if US military intervention will really help things much.  Could just reinforce the regime's narrative that the uprising is being fueled by the Israelis and Americans.
