Unfortunately, this thread is turning into yet another debate in the line of "Which religion do you believe to be the most prone to violence?" (I'm exaggerating here alright, but it the discussion has certainly gone astray).
Just to make one thing perfectly clear (from my point of view): This is not about religion in the least. If at all, religion is used to make the authority of the ruling class in Iran unquestionable by turning legitimate criticism and opposition into blasphemy. It is an abuse of religion, which could be done with any of them, and has been (even Buddhism). There are certainly both people for and people against Ahmadinejad who claim to be good muslims.
