NYT – Excerpt: Mir Hussein Moussavi, the Iranian opposition leader, made some of his harshest remarks against Iran’s rulers on Tuesday in an interview published on his Web site, calling their behavior dictatorial and terrifying. The remarks by Mr. Moussavi, whom supporters regard as the real winner of Iran’s contested presidential elections last June, appeared to be part of a broader opposition effort to counter an intensified crackdown by the government ahead of the Feb. 11 anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, when many expect new street protests to erupt. Mr. Moussavi’s remarks came as the government in Tehran announced that nine imprisoned antigovernment protesters would soon be hanged. Two were hanged last week. In the interview, Mr. Moussavi said the executions were aimed at ‘terrifying people’ into submission. ‘The majority of people believed in the beginning of the revolution that the roots of dictatorship and despotism were abolished,’ he said. ‘I was one of them but now I don’t have the same beliefs. You can still find the elements and roots that lead to dictatorship.'”

Fiction vs. Reality
So, it is 9th of Feburary 2010, two days before the “D-day”. The Ayatollahs/”The Guards” arrange for assassination of Ahmadinejad, and it is immediately announced (by the basij) as the plot of the Americans and the Zionists. There will be bloodshed in the streets of Tehran and other major cities in Iran. Everyone keeps on shouting “Allah-o-Akbar”. Leaving alone the fact that the entire concept of Allah/God/Religions is nothing but a human illusion (read Richard Dawkins’ book). The revolutionary guard takes over and declares a marshal law, executes Khamanei and the entire Mullah-Governed Majles, and we have a military coup. There we go, something worse than the Shah and the Ayatollah’s regime — a bunch of Laat and Chagookesh taking over the country a la Idi Amin of Uganda, or worse. They will celeberate drinking the blood of their enemies (rather than drinking wine), and make the life of Iranians as if the Evin Prison was a picnic.
Meanwhile the Israelis (with their Mossad Human-Int), and the US Special Operations in Iran will have the last laugh. Poor Iranians — not only their crude oil was taken away and sold back to them as “refined oil†— now their uranium will be taken from them and sold back to them as an “enriched one”.
