Wow the CIA really has them hopping mad over there. I find it fasinating how much world coverage this topic gets. Canada news, US news always about Iran. You can tell the US knew it was going to get fucked up, CNN sent Amanpour over to Iran before the elections.
Apparently it will be televised.
Also the US media is really pushing this hard. Today there are only a few hundered protesters and CNN is covering it like it is the end of the world.

I would guess that the CIA is keeping an eye on this, but I don't see much reason to believe that they either caused this mess, supported it, or impacted the news coverage of it...which is not to say that the US isn't pleased by what's going on. It's sufficiently plausible that the mess was originated and supported by Iranians who are sick of living in caveman-style economic and social systems and that the news coverage is impacted entirely by corporations acting on their own guidance.
The Iranian hardliners wish they could pin this all on America (and they're trying). They wish they could sweep this under the rug and make it look like everyone in their country is united behind them, and so of course they're going to say that all of the news reports are wrong.
But the fact is that their system just sucks ass and their own people know it.
Not so fast, Miro -- check out the headline from Iran's Kayhan News:
The headline reads, "$400 Million CIA Budget For Creating Riots After The Election." So, there's that.
I don't think the CIA is behind all of this, but if they are, good for them. As between dishing out "freedom" by the barrel of a gun as we did in Iraq and subtly encouraging thousands of people to rise up themselves and demand, it, I'd prefer the latter.
but remember nobody tops the US when it comes to media. Russia didn't attack Georgia, Georgia attacked Russia.
I think the CIA has a lot to do with what is going on and I don't say that in a bad way. Whatever gets the job done.
Bombing mosques and starting a green parade. The CIA loves colors like back in the Ukraine revolution(Orange Revolution). It's pretty simple if it helps the USA the CIA probably has something to do with it.

Why do you assume the US has everything to do with everything...
Amanpour always follows Iranian affairs, look at her name for details why... Her pockets are line with IR money anyway, so fuck her.
It is being covered because perhaps people care about a nation has been oppressed for 30 years and it finally standing up for itself on its own merits (Not the CIA's merits)
Paying attention to Iranian media right now is not the best. I could list about 20 things and people they have blamed it on. Watching state TV is actually quite amusing. It is almost if Comical Ali was working for them.
haha... yes, the Iranian media is right up there with North Korea when it comes to basic journalistic integrity...
and the UK don't forget - Anyone remember Dr David Kelly?
I think it's fair to say western governments would be happier than anyone to see the fall of the current regime so the involvement of secret services in events like these (to some degree at least) is almost guaranteed. I'm not saying they started the whole thing though they will definitely be doing very little to stop it.
As for the initial outcry over the "rigged" election and subsequent theories about the real results, who in the west has any idea whatsoever what the poll results were ?
All we know is the propaganda from our own media machines which, for some unexplained reason, we trust.
It is these same systems (controlled in the main by government) that have us believe Iran is such an unpredictable rogue state in the first place. They blow up the whole goodies vs baddies as there is little else they can do to get people to support their intentions.
eg invade / control

Ya like you guys cared about Iraqi people right? over 1 million casualties since you guys showed up. Stop being so naive you guys put more into your defense than the rest of the world combined that is why I think you guys are involved.
The CIA will also be allowed to supply communications equipment which would enable opposition groups in Iran to work together and bypass internet censorship by the clerical regime. Mark Fitzpatrick, a former senior State Department official now with the International Institute for Strategic Studies, said industrial sabotage was the favoured way to combat Iran's nuclear programme "without military action, without fingerprints on the operation."
Funny we have been hearing a lot about US fingerprints lately.
You see the way it works is this
1st You send in your economic hitmen, if that doesn't work
2nd You send in the jackals, if that doesn't work
3rd You send in the military

lol at you guys. I could care fucking less about government of Iran and their tactics. In fact I invite you to say such things. Lol it seems like you have waiting for a random Iranian to come along so you get your anger out. Me thinks someone has not been paying attention to zee news recently seeing as most Iranians do not see and probably have never seen eye to eye with zee government.
As for the article.... So I guess I work for the CIA since I am helping Iranians out with proxies and what not. Keep reading your CIA nonsense. I find it funny people always think the US is on these things. One thing I will tell you is the following our on the Islamic Republic's side: Russians, Chinese, Venezuelans, Nokia, Sieman's, George Galloway. As for people on the Iranian people's side: Western Media. That is about it.
First off I didn't know you were Iranian. Second i am not anti Iranian at all. Third I was just informing you the way the US gov't works when they try to control something. I find it funny that the writing to be on the wall and yet people won't believe it. Watch the videos I posted and educate yourself on what happens out there thats all. The US gov't can come out like when Obama spoke about the Iran coup that the CIA did back in the day and people can't believe that they would do it again EVEN when there is an article from the Bush administration talking about black ops- CIA- internet news. What more do you want? Obama to come out and say "Ya it is us actually." Well he won't at least not for 50 years.
It has nothing to do with Nukes and everything to do with oil, again. I feel like i am watching an instant replay of iraq except this will be much worse. The persian empire has never been conquered.
