A Troubled Week in Iran
The Big Picture has some of the best pictures I've seen covering the drawn out riots in Iran. "Many of the photographs here were taken and transmitted at great risk in the past week, in the hopes that others would be able to see and bear witness."
"In the ten days since Iran's disputed presidential election, street demonstrations have taken place every day. Iranian citizens, supporters of opposition candidates, continue to take to the streets and document what they encounter there, despite explicit government bans, the danger of arrest (many hundreds placed in custody), or possible physical harm (at least 19 deaths so far)."
