Iranian elections and what you think about it.

[Republican]

Most of the 14M supporters in this thread, don't really understand what the situation is in Iran,
The Reformists aren't saying NO to the islamic system of Iran, they are saying NO to the election's results.
And as Learned already explained, this is AhmadiNajad Vs. Rafsanjani battle on one side, and the economic plan of both counterparts on the other.

So don't you get any high hopes, do some research first, even if the reformist win, they surely won't be sitting side by side with the 'Arab Moderation Axis' (KSA - Egypt - Jordan) [By the way if you guys are pushing for democracy you should really start cleaning your own house first].

As for my opinion on this matter, well I don't really care who the President is (I am not Iranian obviously), as long as the majority of the Iranians are happy with their President, it's fine by me, it wouldn't really change Iran's Foreign policy in the region either way ;) (Both Reformists and Conservatives believe in a Nuclear Iran).

Good luck to Iran and to the Iranian people, may you solve your own problems with no bloodshed, and unlike all 'revolutions', say no to foreign intereference.

Good to see the Iranians voting for change. Hope Dinajad gets what he deserves.

U.S. State Department speaks to Twitter over Iran

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. State Department contacted the social networking service Twitter over the weekend to urge it to delay a planned upgrade that could have cut daytime service to Iranians, a U.S. official said on Tuesday.

"We highlighted to them that this was an important form of communication," said the official of the conversation the department had with Twitter at the time of the disputed Iranian election. He declined further details.

The majority of the people on the ground are not against the Islamic Republic, because the majority people on the ground are pro-Ahmadinejad/pro-Iran protesters. But even if the majority on the ground was against Islamic Republic, the majority on the ground does not represent the majority in the city of Tehran let alone in Iran as a whole . The people have spoken & the ballot boxes speak louder than any rioting and thuggery by this american-funded fifth column.

Israel would rather have Ahmadinejad than Mousavi:

"Despite Ahmadinejad's anti-Israel pronouncements, Dagan suggested Israel was more comfortable with his declared victory in Friday's poll over reformist candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi.

Mousavi's moderate reputation may have made it harder to press on with world pressure on Iran to halt its nuclear development, which Israel thinks may lead to production of an atomic bomb within five years, Dagan said."

I predict that some posters in this thread will now be switching their priorities from grieving for Mousavi to supporting Ahmadinejad.

Obama will always surprise me
He's much less manichean than most internation media
and surely more informed than the F14ers that we have here :-)

It's too easy to tag them as american fifth column
What if there were fraud, just like in tehre were fraud in lebanon

In any wase, Moussavi is far from being a CIA agent
