Not that "Neda"- How the wrong photo became an internet icon...

When the graphic video of a young girl dying on the streets of Tehran was first uploaded to the Internet last Saturday, there was no name attached to it. All we knew was the face of a young girl struggling for her last breaths after a sniper's bullet exploded in her heart, as others attempted to save her.

Later we learned her name was 'Neda.'  

Hamed R., the Iranian expatriate living in The Netherlands who was first to put the video online and bring it to the attention of the media, told those inquiring he thought her name was possibly 'Neda Soltani.' Not long after that people posted the name online; it was only a few steps from there before someone discovered a photo attached to the name 'Neda Soltani' and started using it in tribute to the young woman who'd died.
