Moussavi and Ahmadinejad: The Same?
According toMorad Farhadpour and Omid Mehrgan “the other confused camp, the Western, more or less, Islamophobic liberals, who are inclined to identify Ahmadinjad with Al-Qaeda, who refer to Mousavi, because of his Islamic-Republican career in 80’s, as another version of Islamic, anti-democratic Ideology, one could say that they too are caught up in an illusion based on easy Euro-centrist generalizations and lack of familiarity with the Iranian historical context.” Farhadpour and Mehrgan, Iranian translators, unequivocally state that Moussavi, given his political history is definitely not some “Western liberal.” However, from the beginning he has “insisted on people’s dignity as a true political right.”
The difference is that Moussavi has allowed for the expression of a group of people who totally different from the “People” who are portrayed on the state owned media, Seda-va-Sima. In fact, even now, the Regine has labeled all protesters as “thugs.” As you can see in the above photo, there are several clerics in the group.
It’s always a worry that we might help to install another Aquino, but this time our hands are tied. We have too many nations utilizing our military power, to be able to actually help fight a “good fight” as our idiot-in-chief calls them. The people look a bit like frustrated Americans…God, be with them.

Well yes, Moussavi and Ahmadinejad have both been vetted by the Mullahs. So, they’re not really reformers. However, he has said that the people do have rights and I believe that since he is campaigning with his wife, he may very well allow for more liberty for women. To some extent, I think this is something of a “lipstick Revolution”, as Playboy calls it.
