Don't put your money on that. There is no evidence that Ahmadinejadh has not gotten a majority in this time's elections, and he got that in last time'S elections, and maybe you underesitmate the widespreaded conservatism of Muslims in Algeria, Turkey, Iran, Egypt - of these countries I can speak due to personal impressions from not just short stays. The Western assumption that socalled moderate Islam is the real Islam and that socalled extremist Islam is just a deformation and a distraction from the rule, is wrong, and a Western self-deception. Islam is an extreme fundamentalist, totalitarian ideology by it'S most natural essence and content. So do not be mislead. Regarding Iran, I said it from the beginning on: there probably has been some fraud, to be sure that Ahmadinejadh would win for sure, but I strongly assume he would have won anyway, even without fraud.
