I’ve actually lived in a dictatorship, so I’ve been through both sides of the frame, thank you very much.

Good for you. But to allow your experience to indict anyone here isnt right.

You said,

It’s clear some here don’t see what’s so bad about living in a terrorist run police state with mandatory religion and NUKES!

Neither does President Obama, but I expected smarter lizards to think different.

Thats ridiculous. Nobody here thinks its evenly marginally ok to live in a terrosrist run state. And nobody here is any less competent or intelligent because you think we think living in a terrorist state is ok.

And RW

To believe this event has anything to do with either of the politicians involved is not looking clearly at whats happening. So I assume that not being able to see this thing clearly means one is viewing it through a frame of their expectations. The complete destruction of all signs of islam in Iran would be all . Either ide winning this conflict would be nothing . Thats not whats happening here and its a simple mischaracterization of the facts of this event.

Iranians who have been silent under the thumb of a primitivist oppressive dictatorship of fear and ignorance are finally standing against it. Many of the crowds are chanting death to the guardian council. This sint about Nejad or Mussavi. Its about victims finally ready and willing to face their demons head on.
