Hundreds of people gathered near the United Nations on Wednesday (September 23) to protest Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (ah-muh-DEE'-neh-zhahd) as he prepares to address the UN.
The protesters claim that his June election victory was fraudulent and showed up Wednesday wearing green. That's the signature color of his opposition, led by Mir Hossein Mousavi.
Among the forms of protest were dramatic recreations of a stoning carried out by soldiers and the death of demonstrator, Neta.
One of the green clad protestors, Ali Safavi, President of Iranian National Council of Resistance in Iran said amongst the noise, "It is important for the people of America and the rest of the world. To get a visual sense of the daily brutality, daily barbarism that is on going inside Iran. A hundred and twenty thousand Iranians; women, young men, educated people have been executed by this regime over the last 30 years. And of course Neta was just one example."
The Iranian leader is scheduled to address the U.N. on Wednesday afternoon.
In the same area were both pro and anti Moammar Kadafi demonstrations.
Among the anti Kadafi group was, Frank Duggan the President of the Victims of Flight 103 that seeks justice for the perpetrators of the Pan Am flight's bombing largely attributed to Kadafi.
"There are people behind me demonstrating that say Kadafi is innocent, that the trial was a fraud and we've got to answer those charges every time we can but people tend to believe them," said Duggan. Close
