Iran: post-election riots

An opposition supporter walks past a burning police motorbike. Riot police used tear gas in an attempt to disperse the mostly young protestors during two days of protests following Friday's election. Ahmadinejad, addressing a victory rally of tens of thousands on Sunday, dismissed the unrest as "passions after a soccer match". However, he cancelled a planned visit to Russia.
