Iran Warns Protesters Era of ‘Mercy’ Is Over - NYTimes.com

Iran Warns Protesters "Era of Mercy" Is Over

Because when you think of the Iranian authorities, you immediately think of the tender mercy and warm-hearted compassion they have always shown.

"The police chief, Ismail Ahmadi Moghaddam, said at a news conference on Friday that those who used e-mail and cellphones to organize protests would be punished even more severely than the protesters themselves."

OK, I admit that's fair. Especially if they use their cellphones while driving.
