Iranians returned to the streets of Tehran Thursday to protest a disputed presidential vote. Karim Sadjadpour assess the latest developments and explains that "no one expected the scale of these protests to be similar to what we saw a few weeks ago, but still we saw by eyewitness accounts several thousand people throughout the city. And, again, I think it underscores people's sense of outrage, but also the bravery and the great courage of the Iranian people."
