Democracy As Usual in Iran
The Washington Post / Ali Ettefagh
28-Jun-2009 (4 comments)

Recent developments in Iran are two distinct different matters, albeit foreign media have stitched it all up into one big bubble of insane hype. Somehow, all have forgotten about the purpose of an election. Simply put, the foreign mass media has been duped by a terrorist organization with modern (terror?) techniques of vilification in an abusive manipulation. Polluted prejudice and a lazy default on absurd vocabulary and zingers such as “regime change”, talk of “rogue behavior” or relapse to the perception of the 1953 coup has hijacked reality.

It is time for the world to realize that the Iranian political system is maturing. It is futile and silly for foreigners to insist upon their perceived views of Iran, even if media outlets turn to full time bullhorns of hostile policies of their governments. In the real world, in a territory about the size of Western Europe, Iran conducted a peaceful and historical election without peer in the region and Iranians have embarked on a new course of democracy, not a violent revolution or a coup or a crackdown plan to serve divide-and-dominate games of hostile foreign governments.

Lies from the likes of Mr. Ettefagh provide more proof that the peoples vote was indeed stolen.

Truth shall set you free

It seems some including those who are on lookout for what they label “alternative voice” have not fully digested what has happened.

The Islamist cutthroats’ republic, its sycophants and little helpers have lost the flimsy cover of credibility that  petrodollar had bought them. It is never too late, even for the aged sycophants and little helpers to face reality; truth shall definitely set them free.

Looks like Ali Ettefagh and his stable mate Kaveh Afrasiabi have their head well in the 'akhor' provided by the IRI, judging by the manure they are dropping around.
