November 4, 2009: A rally in Tehran marks the 30th anniversary of the storming of the U.S. embassy, and its subsequent 444-day occupation. Some dissenters used the occasion to renew protests against the presidential elections held earlier this year, even clashing with police after the Revolutionary Guard threatened to crack down on such protests. But many were demonstrating against the U.S. and Israel.
