sayyed hassan was right yesterday when he said some lebanese think its a 14 march against 8 march election...:>
Islamic republic fall? ma the person who is against nijad was a person who fought for the islamic republic...he is just as hardlined as nijad......disarm hezballah? one of the people on mousavis side is called Ali-Akbar Mohtashemi, hes the guy who made the revolutionary guards and hes the one who brought thm to lebanon to train hezballah...u think hes going to disarm them?
i wouldnt mind a secular Iran but lets not get ahead of ourselves

I am laughing at all the people on this thread cheerleading for Mousawi that think that Iran's foreign policy will change. Iran is undergoing a lot of economic turmoil right now, and it's mostly due to Ahamdinajad's poor economic policies.

Support to Hizballah is not going to stop, neither is support for Hamas. Don't get your hopes up.

Yesterdays demo:

It is not confirmed, but it is said to have around 50 dead so far.

maybe the Islamic regime wont fall but what is happening in iran will have some changes on the ground if they success in bringing down Nijadi

and change is always better than nothing so it would be a step forward of getting rid of the Islamic state i do not think the Iranian favor this Islamic regime in fact they hate it even some of them don't want to be Muslims because of this regime! again the Iranian people love to live free and not makmou3in from those scary black clothed people!

You have no idea what you're talking about. Mousawi is as hardline as Ahmadinajad when it comes to Islamic rule. He is not looking for social reforms.

Your Muslim hate is showing--you need to start mentioning freedom and democracy a little more so that you can distract people from the fact that you're anti-Islam.

But, really, thanks for letting Muslims know that you have a solution for them. Surely, they'll heed the advice coming from the Lebanese guy whose country's most influential people are religious figures.

eeehh did you say Robert Fisk? strange why he is the only journalist who got the opportunity to talk about what is happening in iran!

im not saying the people on the ground are working on getting rid of the Islamic regime but im sure they would love to see that happening and shouting Allah w akbar does not mean anything!! yes and this is my opinion because thats the idea i got from the Iranian people them self! when almost every Iranian in the diaspora tells you Khomayni is shaytan you start to think! when every Iranian knows im from Lebanon they tell you how much they hate this regime because it send money to Hezbollah and Hamas while many people in iran could benefit from those money when they tell you Palestine is not our cause its an Arab cause even some of them go far and talk in a bad way about Islam because they think Islam is equal to the brutal regime they got!

and yes this could be a good step for Iran and for the region as whole lets wait and see what the outcome would be!

Yes, because Iranians in the diaspora really represent the actual sentiments of people in Iran. You're really disappointing me. Many of the Iranians in the diaspora left Iran after the fall of the Shah, you don't think there's a coincidence, do you?

This guy's logic: I've spoken to Iranians who hate Islam, so that means all Iranians hate Islam.

Nevermind the fact that Mousawi is not looking to take down the Ayatallah.

well Iran did have some social reforms after 2001 and life is much better from the 1980's so i don't see why from whats happening today that could lead to another good step

and no im not Anti-Islam my family are Muslims my friends are Muslims...
but yes politically im against Islam to the death and i don't see any problem with that

well im sure there are plenty of Iranian who support this brutal regime and force other people to live their way and im sure many iranian also 3am yetra7amou 3ala iyem the dictator Shah if people does not want change you would not see them out on the streets today forget about Mousavi and who he is im talking about the people and there is big difference!

there are 2 types of Iranian people and both sides are not small!
