[0:01] Tonight, defiance.

[0:04] Iran's opposition leader emerges as

[0:06] hundreds of thousands take to the

[0:07] streets to demand a fair counting of the

[0:09] votes, and the protesting turns deadly.

[0:13] I'm Jeff Glor. Also tonight, Israel's

[0:14] Prime Minister on Iran, the settlement,

[0:18] and the possibility of a Palestinian

[0:20] state.

[0:20] >> I've opened the door for peace, and I

[0:22] hope that the Palestinians and the Arab

[0:24] world respond to it.

[0:26] >> As the president begins his fight for

[0:27] healthcare reform, we'll take you to a

[0:29] town that outspends the nation, but they

[0:31] not be getting better care in return.

[0:34] And how to turn throwaways into fashion

[0:36] gold, a true recession bright spot.

[0:44] >> This is the CBS Evening News with Katie

[0:47] Couric.

[0:50] >> And good evening. Katie's off. We begin

[0:52] tonight with stunning images from Iran,

[0:54] which has seen its largest demonstration

[0:56] since the 1979

[0:58] revolution. Hundreds of thousands jam

[1:01] the capital, as you can see, claiming

[1:03] Friday's election for president was a

[1:05] sham, and demanding the opposition

[1:07] reform candidate be declared the winner.

[1:09] Late today, the protesting turned

[1:11] deadly. Tonight, despite continued

[1:13] crackdowns on the media, we are joined

[1:15] on the phone by Elizabeth Palmer.

[1:17] Elizabeth.

[1:19] >> Good evening, Jeff. Well, ever since

[1:21] that election last Friday, extraordinary

[1:24] events every single day have made the

[1:25] outcome of this epic political power

[1:28] struggle impossible to predict. And

[1:31] there were fresh twists and turns today.

[1:35] >> Opposition supporters are once again

[1:38] skirmishing with police in the streets

[1:39] of the capital tonight.
