Via Michael Totten writing at Commentary cites a Huffington Post entry, citing an e-mail from an Iranian (is that trail tenuous or what?):
Nico Pitney published an email at the Huffington Post that indicates at least some of the demonstrators are willing to take casualties.
I spoke with my father last night who is [in Iran]… [He] told me the common sentiment among the protestors is that of incredible resolve. He said that from what he’s heard, this will not stop until the Ayatollah himself is overthrown. As he put it, “Even if a million people (Moussavi supporters) die, they will not back down”.
Brave words. Ominous words. God help and protect the freedom-loving Iranians.
