Many Iranian youths rallied in streets across the country, shouting "Death to Ahmadinejad," in celebrations marking the end of the Persian calendar year.

The last Wednesday of the Persian calendar is celebrated as the Fire Festival in Iran, with bonfires and firecrackers marking the occasion.

In the western city of Ahvaz, angry mobs declared "Freedom is our legitimate right" while demonstrators in the western city of Sanandaj shouted "Death to (Iranian President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad," Ynetnews reported Wednesday.

But, per the Demoncrats and looney left,...the war in Iraq, which has brought this desired freedom to the people of Iraq, has no bearing what so ever and has been a "farce" a "tragedy" and waste of time...yea RIGHT!!! Tell THAT to these courageous Iranian students!!

May God bless those Iranian's and may He soon bring them the freedom they dearly yearn for...with or without help from the US!

By the mid-1980s, a worldwide glut of oil drove prices down from a high of over $60 per barrel to under $20 per barrel (2004 dollars). Prices remained under $30 per barrel (dropping to as little as $12) until 2004.
