Twitter is inundated with second by second accounts of the happenings in Iran. They even have little green overlays for Twitterers to place on their icons, in a showing of “solidarity”. The BBC and CCN have almost complete access, compared to the Iraq War. But is this solidarity and access contrived and seeded by the CIA?
The Iran uprising is too convenient for war mongering right wingers looking for an excuse to use military power in Iran. The whole thing appears like a well orchestrated media event.
