Waiting!
Desperate! waiting for election results. On my way back from my short trip, I am hearing many news now about extensive fraud in many election sites. There are unconfirmed news about winning of Ahmadi Nejad and I am hoping they are not true. Very anxious, very worried I am. Can not imagine the horrible outcome of such results for the future of my nation. I voted in a very small city today not very far from Tehran and I was the only in the queue! Tonight when we were driving into Tehran from northern highways, I found the city as crowded as mid-day rush hours while it was after midnight. Do not know why. The bad news that I read in a blog is that apparently "Kayhan", the conservative newspaper that belongs to hard-line conservatives, has prepared the title for Ahmadi Nejad's victory! In the first round last week, Kayhan also Knew that he will go to the second round even before the complete counting of the votes. I HOPE this time that this is just a propaganda. Waiting...




Isn't it the right thing to do for a newspaper?
If I was the editor I'd prepare headlines for either outcome.
They do that everywhere.

Mr. Behi says: You should be here to feel the sense. This paper is a tribune for the hardliners and whenever something bad happens,you first hear it from this paper and after a while it happens. This action did not the result of professional journalism, is the result of having sources in the dark den of monsters who do whatever ugly thing to get into power.
