It’s no secret that social media’s played an important – maybe even historic – role in the Iran election protests that have swept the nation into discord and disarray. Many social media companies have made a contribution towards opening the flow of communication within and out of Iran, YouTube( ) included.
As we reported earlier this week, thousands of Iran-related videos are being uploaded to YouTube every day, revealing first-hand accounts of the crisis to the world. Some are incredible, some are eye-opening, and other shock you to your very core. We’ve included ten of these incredible videos, in a chronological order that helps provide context to the crisis in Iran. Be prepared, for these videos can evoke some very strong emotions:

People may not realize but in Iran they overthrew the previous administration by the protests that were held for funerals for people who were being killed such as the young woman who was shot in the chest in the second to the last video. I used to be an EMT and very few people every actually see someone die despite the 1,000's of violent acts we are fed on TV as entertainment it is different when it is real. If you click through to the Utube video itself the doc's on the scene blogs about how she was shot by a sharp-shooter on the roof who aimed at her heart.

Although there is a natural impulse to respond to violence with violence "the end is enfolded in the means" and mass protest will usually win over brutal suppression or response to that suppression. The rare exception to this was in China at Tianeman Square but I think if we had twitter and ubtube then the outcome would be different.
