For those of you who liked this video you might enjoy watching Persepolis. Might be enlightened a little more.

The video was very interesting and well done.
Jetxee, the CIA does not need to be involved - there has always been a contingent of people since the Revolution (especially those who fled to the US but still love their country) who have been against this repressive govt. Most are of an educated middle-class, since as you say many poor don't have Internet access. They are not totally free - the state still bans certain movies, books, and political dissent. They have a version of Sharia law. It is often arbitrary in arrests. Look at videos of Iran and Tehran, which has over 4 million people there alone, to get an idea of its youth and modernization. They elected Ahmadinejad (though he has no power to do much at all, since the Supreme Leader Khamenei and the Guardian Council have the power), but many Iranians are unhappy because of high inflation, high rents and a bad economy that has not bought the reforms that were promised. Iran still has a low literacy rate in comparison to most Western nations, but its population is mostly youth. Even some religious leaders there have admitted that they will need reforms because of this youth.
The bloggers are another voice for freedom of speech. If they can write in English, they can enlighten many Americans' confused views of Iranian people. Our govt should not meddle, but I support Iranians. I applaud the bloggers' efforts! (From the USA)
What about high inflation and bad economy, the USA and Israel could have helped better if they removed sanctions against Iran (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanctions_against_Iran). It is almost impossible to have good economy, if you are forbidden to trade normally. This would give more opportunities to those young and liberal forces there. And what's more important, any hostile rhetoric would lose the base in this case. Politicians would have to adjust to open economy and to growing businesses.
What about the video. It is nicely made, but I think it is very biased and provoking. Also the nick of the submitter (“Mr.Aaron”) does not sound like a nick of an Iranian blogger. So I see it as s a nicely made propaganda.
Promoting education and economic growth in Iran is much more important than promoting a revolution. And it would change things slowly, but peacefully. Revolutions are too painful. Counter-revolutions too.
Oh and....iPhone much?
and what song is that at the end? Its awesome
Two big ol' thumbs up from me. :)
