Tax Delay Fails to Quell Iranian Protest
Note:
TEHRAN — A strike in Iran’s traditional bazaars expanded on Sunday despite an order by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to suspend a new tax on sales that ignited the protest more than a week ago. The main entrance to the Grand Bazaar in Tehran was closed, as major traders like carpet and textile merchants joined the jewelers, who had started the strike in Tehran. The strike continued in the traditional bazaars in several other large cities, including Isfahan, where it erupted first on Oct. 4.

Iranian Actress Heads Into a Storm - washingtonpost.com
Note:
Another LAYLA (as in David & Layla movie), shedding her oppressive 'Islamist men imposed' scarf flees to the freedom of the West!
Iranian actress Golshifteh Farahani with Leonardo DiCaprio in the new movie BODY OF LIES See the most stunning combo of striking ethnic beauty and acting talent (out of all the Middle East.)
Golshifteh appears as a knock out Angel towards the end of Iranian Kurdish movie HALF MOON. Her angel is not a cold blond but an olive skin, long hair, coal-black eyes with long, curvy bushy imperfect eyebrows that almost touch in the middle... to die for! (Let's hope now she is in Hollywood she doesn't try to copy cat Western fashion such as the pencil thinned artificially perfect unnatural eyebrows that most ethnic women seem to copy from Vogue models!)
Vive la liberte de la femme!
