			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So tweets <a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau">@TehranBureau</a>, a fascinating source of Iran-opposition news. The New York Times <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/23/world/middleeast/23iran.html?hp">reports</a> that the Revolutionary Guards are vowing to inflict even more violence if the protests don&#8217;t end, despite the Guardian Council&#8217;s <a href="http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2009/06/another_crack.php?ref=fpblg">admission</a> that 50 cities cast more ballots than had registered voters.</p>
<p>Some more @TehranBureau updates:</p>
<blockquote><p><span><span><a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279643769">regime</a> blaming all on terrorists backed by west, MEK [Mujahideen e-Khalq, a terrorist group formerly backed by Saddam Hussein]</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279658642">the rest of the world can help</a> by continuing to spread the word</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279651136">national tv showed scenes of saturday</a> &#8211; only scenes of protestors attacking security forces<span id="more-48165"></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279676085">their line (regime)</a> is that protestors terrorists funded by west and holligans [sic -- it's a tweet, c'mon. You've never mistyped on Twitter?]</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279607650">mousavi&#8217;s popularity has soared</a> since his response to khamenei on Friday</span></span></p></blockquote>
<p><span><span>I&#8217;ll keep watching, but so far, @TehranBureau hasn&#8217;t called for the United States to openly side with the opposition. His recommendations &#8212; <a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279672862">&#8220;</a></span></span><a href="https://twitter.com/TehranBureau/status/2279672862"><span><span>let the regime know the world is watching&#8221;</span></span></a> &#8212; are pretty much in line with what President Obama has been saying, regardless of the <a href="http://www.abcnews.go.com/ThisWeek/Politics/story?id=7891169&amp;page=1">Sunday-show bluster</a> that dismisses concern for the Iranian opposition&#8217;s desires.</p>
