Fresh deadly clashes rock Esfahan province for the 5th consecutive day
SMCCDI (Information Service)
Aug 17, 2003

Fresh clashes rocked, for the 5th consecutive day and despite heavy military presence, the City of Semiram located in Esfahan province resulting in new deaths and injured among the residents and the Islamic regime's forces.

Additional units of heliported special units were not able to extinguish the unrest which seemed to have been come back under governmental control on Friday evening. Crowd came into the streets, on Saturday, shouting slogans against the regime and its leaders.

Tires were set on fire and barricades created in several areas in order to slow the chase of the demonstrators by the regime's men.

Young freedom fighters used again of rocks and incendiary devices against the regime forces as they opened fire on the crowd.

The bloody repression of the unrest had already resulted in the deaths of several protesters and injuries of tens of other shot by the Islamic republic's special forces on Friday.

Several militiamen were killed or injured as well by masked young freedom fighters who had assault rifles.

The peaceful demonstrations turned violent as the regime's plainclothes men killed a young demonstrators on Thursday. This murder and the meaningless justification of the governor, on Friday, created the popular anger and retaliation against the buildings of the local Bassij force, the Governor's residence, the governmental TV-Radio installation and several patrol units which were dammaged by Molotov Cocktails.

Several other cities and localities of the Esfahan province, such as, Khomeini Shahr, formerly known as Shahin Shahr, and Dastguerd locality have been scenes of sporadic clashes as well.

I have mixed feeling on this report. On one hand I'm happy to see the Iranian people starting to strike back against the regime. But on the other hand I do not wish to see this bursting into a large rain of domestic conflicts.

Although armed opposition seems to be one of the few options left, I'm still afridi of what might happen. And what kind of groups (that's right, the peoples' mujahedin) might exploit such an event.

"From two ranks amongst mankind have I seized power... kings and ecclesiastics."

"I have given power to the people."

Persian nobleman Mirza Hussein Ali, titled The Glory of God. (circa 1865)

If it IS true that God has given 'power to the people', then the Iranian people must now assert their power to govern themselves in accordance with the Will of God for THIS Day...

For too long, the powerless ecclesiastics of Iran have used terror, deceit and dissembling to keep the people of Iran down; hanging 12-year-old girls for teaching childrens' classes at home; imprisoning Baha'is for crimes imagined and creatively assigned by the government, without substance but for the government's convenience; jailing dissent and killing observers...

Arise, O people of Iran, that from your actions may come the fragrant scent of justice, courage and submission to the Will of God!
