A reader has pointed us to some powerful video of protests last night in Tehran, which took place during and after President Ahmadinejad's broadcast and on the "40th day" memorial for Sohrab Arabi, killed by Basiji militia. In the first clip, demonstrators chant, "We are Neda [Agha Soltan, killed by Basiji on 20 June]! We are Sohrab! We are One Voice!"
