Alright, so from your perspective the Iranian Regime is legitimate and I am probably a victim of western media brainwashing. I dont want to derail your topic, so I wont go into Debate.

No, but I can reference this, which is based on what Iranian twitterers and facebookers say.

You're right, I havent personally experienced the elections in Iran. I trusted what the media says and what protestors say. Maybe they werent rigged. Maybe ther is a conspiracy to make it appear as if they were rigged.

I, actually, happen to know the elections tabulation method in Iran. Having done some overseas work in elections monitoring, voting logistics is a bit of an interest area of mine.
Since you're presenting affirmative statements that Iran's elections were rigged, would you at least like to know how Iran's elections work? The logistics of balloting? If you're going to say they were rigged shouldn't you at least be able to explain the method by which the rigging occurred?edit on 8-3-2011 by zuul000 because: (no reason given)

Again, I'll have to trust you. I haven't "seen uprisings across Libya" as I've been in the US for the last few months. It sounds like you're on the ground in Libya though so I'll defer to what you're seeing.

Look at any news source you want they all tell the same story that there are towns under rebel control.
