The video is quite a few days old and I see that Darius Kadivar has already written about arrests.
Aghdashloo with O'reilly on Iranian election
by Anony (not verified) on Sun Jul 05, 2009 02:57 AM PDTSadly O'reilly comes across more sympathetic towards Iranians than Shohreh does.
Shame on Shohreh for wasting such a good opportunity when given the forum. She backstabbed partriotic Iranians with her comments. I had much higher expectations from this lady.
Bravo

Maryam Hodjat
by Setareh Cheshmakzan on Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:04 AM PDTRakhshan Bani-Etemad is an internationally renounced film-maker and a patriot, vociferous in her opposition to military attack on Iran. I agree she is a lady to be proud of.
