The power of video

After a brief weekend spent relaxing and ignoring the rest of the world, I'm catching up on news. Particularly in Iran.

A lot of people are talking about Neda. According to the person who posted the video on Youtube, this woman was shot by a paramilitary force.

It's not a violent video, but you're watching a woman bleed to death. Another woman screams, a man cries her name repeatedly. It's powerful.

Here it is if you want to see it. Youtube makes you sign in to swear you're not a minor, but Mashable provides it to everyone.
