This reminds me of the covert failure of the US Shadow-Gov in Venezuela, using US-taxes to bribe various infrastructure and the wealthy into acting as surrogate for Western-Corp privatization.

At least the spoiled college-children of the wealthy in North Tehran are accomplishing less vandalizing of Tehran streets and businesses. Perhaps learning not to attack or firebomb police when the Basij are around brought them back to some point of reality.

By now it should be clear to everyone, despite US-Media propaganda, that the elections in Iran were heavily favoring Ahmadinejad. That Mousavi refusing Election Commission instructions to apear before them with (any proof) of vote error, and his refusal therefore speaking volumes.

Today events reveal adequate evidence the only reason the US-Gov/Media continue pushing these few wealthy 1935-left-overs, is to communicate somehow to these "My Way of No Way" of US-Gov/Media hope however slim for gov-overthrow. Certainly Mousavi when Foreign Ministry and suspected involved with terrorist bombing and killing US soldiers, is not the primary reason US-Gov/Media are saying Iran election were fixed.

I had expected at least some coverage by the US Media of the Thursday demonstaions in Iran - but very very little, if any!

Makes one wonder........... Something's up.............

I don't know why no one is talking more about the issue of Mojtaba, the son of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamanei, and his real relationship with the Basij militia. After all, its a significant piece of the equation that led these guys to steal the election to begin with.

The Basij, at least in part, facilitates the drug trade coming out of Afghanistan. In effect, Mojtaba is little more than a warlord and dear old dad Khamanei tells himself that his son is actually being a patriot by providing funds to help support Iran's nuclear program. it's all a crock of BS, of course, because the baseline is about power, corruption, and greed. But what dad wants to admit this sort of truth about his son or, for that matter, himself? So much for moral authority. Good luck to the people of Iran. They deserve better than this!
