Courageous protesting Iranian students by E.C. Fenig
Nine consecutive demonstrations at Shiraz University continued yesterday, with more than 3,000 students, Shahin Gobadi, a spokesman for the group, said in a telephone interview from Paris."We are men and women of fighting, dare to fight and we will fight back, " students chanted at Shiraz University, according to the spokesman. "To the commander of garrison, this is the final warning: The student movement is ready for the uprising."In January, more than 2,000 students in Tehran University demonstrated against the government with chants of "Down with despotism."
Well this is sure to be a disappointment to the students and professors at Columbia University who honored Iran's Ahmadinejad just a few months ago and apologized for those Americans who insult him.
