Sigh. One last time my friend - WHO is gonna lead Iran after the revolution throws out the Mullahs? The only “named” Iranian leader I know of, is the one who said today that he’s ready to die for the people or somesuch (“willing to be a martyr” maybe).
From what little I know of him, other folks will come along in due course to replace him and Iran will not be run by a despot anymore, but right after the Revolution, SOMEONE’s gonna have to run Iran and who else but Mousavi?! He’s not a Mullah - hell I’m not even sure he’s as “religiously qualified” as dinnerjacket.
And to be candid, I DON’T think the ‘79 revolution was run by anyone except the ole Khomeni - who we allowed to come back from Paris and who then let the “students” take over our embassy and hold our civilians as hostages. The 1979 revolution wasn’t really started by the students, it was set up by Kohmeni himself.
