Iranian police used batons to attack mourners holding memorials for those killed in post-election violence. Police used teargas to disperse crowds from the grave of Neda Agha Soltan at Behesht-e Zahra Cemetery, Tehran. Today was the 40th day of Nedas murder. Neda Agha Soltan, 27,was shot dead on 20 June by the so called security forces. This outrage has shocked the world. Opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi tried to join Neda's family at the grave but police forced them to leave. In Ahmadinejad's Iran citizens cannot even mourn the dead.

Picture:Iranian Martyr Neda was a Christian as indicated by the Cross

Neda was brutally murdered by so called Iranian security forces. This picture shows her wearing a crucifix and indicates that she was a Christian. Efforts have been made in some western quarters to imply that the opposition to Ahmadinejad only differed slightly in outlook from the regime. Nothing could be further from the truth. People of all faiths in Iran oppose the government. They are not seeking more Sharia, or reformed Sharia or better Sharia.
Now a question for many media organizations: Why was the cross cropped out of this picture?

Iran: Neda posters pulled down by state officials according to the Telegraph newspaper
Iranian security officials have begun pulling down posters of Neda Agha Soltan, the young woman who has become the face of the country's pro-democracy uprising after her death in Tehran was captured on video.
Relatives said images of Neda Agha Soltan, 27, who has been described as Iran's "Angel of Freedom" after she was apparently shot dead on Saturday, had been targeted by plain-clothed officials.
They had removed any material commemorating the 27-year-old student that had been erected near her home by sympathisers in the Iranian capital. Read full story Here.
