Protestors gathered in Raleigh Saturday, demonstrating against the government of Iran.

Organizers said what they want most is for the United States government to reject any dealings with the current Iranian regime.

For the past four and a half months, Iran has been in turmoil.

It started when a woman who was arrested for wearing her hijab incorrectly died in the custody of the country's "morality police."

Hundreds of people have since been killed when the militant Islamic government cracked down on protests, and recently there have been several public executions.

At this point, one hundred people in Iran face execution in a nation notorious for the practice.
