[quote:Grizzled Old Goat:MV8xMzc2NzAyXzIyNzAyNjk2X0VFOTIwNzcy] 1 March 2011 Last updated at 11:58 ET [b] Iran: Security forces break up Tehran protests[/b] Iranian police have fired tear gas to disperse opposition supporters mounting protests in the capital Tehran. A BBC correspondent in Tehran said large numbers of riot police and militia on motorcycles in the city centre broke up any crowds that formed. The unrest comes a day after websites close to opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi said they had been jailed. The government has denied this, saying the two men were at home. The BBC's Mohsen Agsari in Tehran said by early evening the security forces appeared to have full control of the streets.

Original Message
'Iran, exemplar of human rights'
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says the Islamic Republic of Iran has established the “best example for asserting human rights in the world.”
In a Monday message to the first National Human Rights Conference, Ahmadinejad said the Iranian constitution places emphasis on various aspects of citizens and human rights.
Nations, particularly Muslim ones, have pinned their hopes on the Iranian nation and the major achievements of the Islamic Revolution to guide them on their path, IRNA quoted him as saying.
“In a world full of deception -- where terrorism, internal disputes, war, bloodshed and military occupation are being supported in the name of freedom… -- it is the obligation of an Islamic government to provide the world with an excellent example and model for the achievement of religious democracy,” the Iranian president went on to say.
