    During the Bush years, the liberal candidates lost too, you know. The mullahs have always "done what they like"; when people think God is on their side, that's what they do.

    From all indications, Moussavi is not going to take this result lying down:
    if he refuses to accept the result of the elections and tries to overthrow the will of the Iranian people i suspect he will be lying down whether he likes it or not .


    Things could get very interesting there.

    At least Obama has the recent anti-Hizbullah vote in Lebanon to shows that his policy may be working.
    there was no anti hizbullah vote in lebanon . It was Hizbullahs christian partnership of Aoun that fared badly , not hizbullah . Its strength hasnt changed one bit .

    but they endorsed the failed opposition also as fit to stand for election under their constitution .

    Most candidates were excluded as they are every election. Anybody who thinks Iran is democratic is either ill informed or a ranting anti-American nut job who would cheer for anyone just so they can cock a snoop at the yanks. Which are you?

    Massive protests over Iranian election - UPI.com

    Thousands take to the streets. And the Ayatollah is delighted. When kuckle draggers like Khameini are delighted you know it is bad for normal people.

    feel free to post your evidence of vote rigging and prove to us how ahmadinejad is just as undemocratic as hugo chavez who apparently also rigs elections .
    as it stands the only people proven to have broken electoral laws are the opposition , who carried on campaigning en masse after the dealine had ceased .
