When we told them they needed a moderate they took it to mean this.

When you have less than credible election you better come out with a strong external enemy fast even when it's imaginary.

Iranians deserve better than a dirty election. They are the kind of people who deserve seeing their country to prosper and dignified. It has the propensity to be a great nation seeing the young people there.

I hope there won't be another Neda . . .

Did anyone here see that Ted Koppel special a couple years back where he went to Iran? I believe it was aired on the Discovery Channel.

EDIT - Found YouTube links. Pretty sure it's the right one.

If that woman would have been the only victim, you would have a point. But behind eachletter of that name are hundreds more, so in a grim, brutally meaningless way this women called Neda - is no special case at all - just one amongst many.

What is that term supposed to mean...

Meanwhile:
A Quiet Axis Forms Against Iran in the Middle East

Shia versus Sunni, Arabs versus Persians: a thousand years of civil war - that's what I call "putting your heart and soul in it".

Sorry for that broken link. The linking feature of this forum often leaves me in the dust, that'S why I almost never use it - sometimes it works, sometimes it replaces the http link I paste and copy with the subsim homepage.

A Mullah.....holy man educated in Islamic theology and sacred law....a leader like the Ayatollah.

A Lite version....one that is not so intense or anti-western.

= a new Iranian leader that would be easier to get along with.....A MULLAH LITE (also the name of a dessert)

It's a play on words....British humour
