Majles Pressure on Cabinet

Deputy foreign minister under fire for promoting "Iranian ideas"

AP: Iran's foreign minister was under pressure Monday to dismiss his deputy, part of a burgeoning power struggle involving President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the parliament and the powerful Muslim clergy. Ahmadinejad is in danger of losing the backing of the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has the final say on all state matters in Iran. Also, Ahmadeinejad has been battling his parliament for supremacy, using a series of issues and appointments to promote his position.

Elections

by Rastgoo on

I don't understand why they would be so concerned about the upcoming elections?  They being the faghih supporters.  They are assured victory since the guardians council will disqualify AN's supporteres.  What am I missing here?  This whole thing is the same sham that we've been witnessing since Khomeini took over.  In an abbreviated format this is who they have purged so far: Jebhe Melli, Jebhe Democratic Melli, Mojahedin, Nehzat Azadi, Fadaiyan Aghaliyat, Fadaiyan Aksariyat, Tudeh, Peykar, Komoleh, Hezb Democrat Kurdistan, Eslah talaban, and now AN supporters.  Sure to be missing many.  Why is this non-sense about "elections" even being discussed?

Promoting Iran, what a sin

by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on

When we have such a great Islamic System why would anyone promote Iran.

Regime is focussed on your after life, forget this life, follow the Islamic Democracy for a better after life and if you are part of the regime and think like us, this life will be very profitable for you too... wink, wink,
