On June 10th, 2003 a group of students at a university in Tehran began a peaceful demonstration. But it was like a spark in parched forest. Soon the entire nation was ablaze with the voice of protest against a regime that has oppressed its people for the past 25 years.

The Iranian regime has been threatening a major crackdown on the protesters. In just 6 days (July 9th) the people of Iran are planning massive demonstrations events and strikes. On this date, 4 years ago, the regime brutally attacked peaceful student demonstrators while in their dorms. The result was the loss of life and liberty of hundreds of students, many of which are still unaccounted for.
