What's going to happen in Iran today?

(AP, Reuters, NYTimes) No word yet on what's going to happen, but by the time you read this, you'll probably know. State TV is announcing that the rallies have been canceled, but, that appears to be propaganda.

The BBC says the rallies will go ahead, and says Moussavi will make an announcement imminently.
An aide to Mr Karroubi also told the BBC that a rally would take place and that it would be attended by Mr Mousavi and Mohammad Khatami - the former president, key reformist and ally of Mr Mousavi.

(The head of the State Security Council made a threat that Moussavi might be arrested if the rallies go on. Think they'd really try to arrest him?)

(AFP) Karroubi said the protest will go ahead.

And, neither Moussavi or Karroubi attended the official elections complaint meeting yesterday offered by Khamenei.

Again, by the time you read this, you will know alot more.
